About Kasun Rajitha
A tearaway quick coming from the dustbowls of Sri Lanka is enough to grab eyeballs already. And when you pick up a fifer against the touring Indians, a list that includes Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan, you know you've hit the attention bulls eye.
Kasun Rajitha had one such claim to fame. Largely unheard of before 2015, the right arm quick announced himself with figures of five for 68 in a three-day warm up game at Khettarama. He followed this up with incisive bowling performances in the domestic T20 tournament to finish as the second-highest wicket-taker of the season. With an ability to clock 140kph easily, a lanky frame and a tall arm bowling action, he was soon fast tracked into the national T20I squad.
