Chamila Gamage Lakshitha, a right-arm medium fast bowler who swings the ball into right-handers, burst onto the international scene with a wicket off his very first delivery in Test cricket. Given a chance to press for a place after Sri Lanka's disappointing tour of England, the 23-year-old, a product of the BCCSL's Fast Bowling Unit, who works for the Air Force, went onto to impress in that Bangladesh Test and was selected to play all three ODI's that followed. Further good performances during Sri Lanka A's tour of Pakistan ensured his place in the South Africa tour party. Also showed some promise with the bat in his debut Test, scoring 40 from just 46 balls at number eleven. (30.11.2002)
