About Asitha Fernando
Looks can be deceptive and Asitha Fernando used that to his advantage when he lead the bowling charts in the under-19 World Cup for Sri Lanka in 2016. He picked up 11 wickets from 6 games at an average of 16.45 to take Sri Lanka till the semis. His four-fer against eventual finalists India was perhaps his best spell.
A smooth run-up to the crease coupled with an action that helps him to skid the ball on to the batsman, slightly quicker than expected, makes him a potent force.
