India spinner Axar Patel has been ruled out of the Asia Cup final against Sri Lanka and Washington Sundar joined the team as a replacement, the country's cricket board said Saturday.

India will take on Sri Lanka on Sunday in Colombo with the teams looking to win the 50-over tournament and get momentum ahead of the upcoming ODI World Cup.

Patel suffered a "left quadriceps strain" in the team's Super Four loss to Bangladesh where the bowling all-rounder took a wicket and scored 42 runs.

Sundar, an off-spinner who also bats, arrived in the Sri Lankan capital on Saturday evening to join the squad, according to the Board of Control for Cricket in India.

India's squad: R. Sharma (capt), S. Gill, V. Kohli, S. Iyer, S. Yadav, T. Varma, KL Rahul (wk), Ishan Kishan, H. Pandya (vice-capt), R. Jadeja, S. Thakur, K. Yadav, J. Bumrah, M. Shami, M. Siraj, P. Krishna, W. Sundar
