Chanuka Dilshan is a hugely talented left-arm spinner playing for Moors Sports Club in Sri Lankan domestic cricket, alongside Test stars Ramish Mendis, and Praveen Jayawickrama,

Over the 2022 calendar year, Dilshan was been one of Moors' stand-out performers. During the SLC Major Clubs Limited Overs Tournament (July 2022), he bagged 26 wickets at 11.73 to top his side's wicket-charts, all with an economy rate of 3.25 per over.

To date, after 29 List A matches, Dilshan has now taken 55 wickets at 15.21, which represents statistically some of the best figures in Sri Lankan white ball cricket.

In the first-class format, the spinner has enjoyed similar success 62 wickets at 26.48 in 16 matches, including 21 at 20.66 during the current 2022/23 season.

The left-arm tweaker really is a quality prospect embarked on his maiden UK stint in 2023. Playing for Rye, he enjoyed tremendous success averaging 25, and 15 with bat and ball respectively.

Now a qualified coach, Dilshan is eager to return for another stint next summer.
