Matheesha Pathirana is another 19-year-old who got to play only two matches this IPL season. He was roped in by the Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2022 as a player replacement for the injured Adam Milne. Hailing from Kandy, Sri Lanka, the right-arm medium pacer is also a right-handed batter.

He featured in Sri Lanka’s U19 World Cup squads in 2020 and 2022. Pathirana caught the eyes of everyone due to his slingy bowling action. Similar to the Sri Lankan great Lasith Malinga, he also times his yorkers well.

In the two games he played, he bagged two wickets with an economy of over seven. Due to Deepak Chahar’s injury, Pathirana might have been a good option if he had gotten enough time.
