Lahiru Thirimanne represented Sri Lanka across the three formats. He played 44 Tests, 127 ODIs and 26 T20Is during his international career for the Lankan Lions.
Lahiru Thirimanne's last Test came against India in Bengaluru in March 2022 where he scored eight runs across two innings.
Immediately upon testing positive for the coronavirus, both Arthur and Thirimanne were directed to follow Sri Lankan government's health protocol on Covid-19.
The Sri Lanka team arrived on Tuesday amid tight security and rested in their team hotel on Wednesday ahead of their three-match ODI series.
