1996 World Cup Profile:
This stylish 24 year old right hander has been a consistent and prolific scorer in Sri Lankan domestic cricket, but has yet to translate that into impressive form on the International stage. After an inauspicious start to his Test career, in which he managed just 1 run in 5 innings against India and Australia, he has recently returned to the national squad. His talent is obvious, and he can be expected to do it full justice given further opportunities.help@cricinfo.com
