Malka Madushanka is a talented left-arm orthodox spinner playing for the star-studded Burgher Recreation Club in the top tier of domestic cricket.
He broke into first-class cricket during the 2017/18 season, where he impressed for Sri Lanka Army taking 22 wickets at 17.31 including his maiden five-wicket haul (5-41).
Like many youngsters, he suffered a lean second season, taking only 3 wickets in 2018/19, but he made amends during the last full summer (2019/20) with a further 13 wickets.
Regular bowling opportunities for the Army proved limited in recent years, due to the dearth of spin bowling talent, including Seekkuge Prasanna, and CricX star Dushan Vimukthi. Nevertheless, he has become a key component in an Army side that also features Sri Lankan internationals Dinesh Chandimal, and Asela Gunaratne.
Seeking regular outings, Madushanka moved to Burgher Recreation Club this summer (2022) and is hoping to see plenty of action at the bowling crease.
Thereafter, he is keen to experience cricket abroad and has targeted a UK league season for his development in 2023. He is a player that comes highly recommended by none other than former Sri Lankan legend Ajantha Mendis who suggests he'll excel in club conditions next summer.
