First impressions of Sadeera Samarawickrama?

[Nikhil_cric]

He's batting with intent and looking to dominate the bowlers from the get-go . Only 22 and seems to be a bright young talent and one for the future. Thoughts?

 

[Cric1234]

A hidden talent is discovered maybe one for the future.

Sadeera Samarawickrama - A new hope for Sri Lanka?

Sadeera Samarawickrama a very special talent.

After Mahela/Sanga: SL are slowly rebuilding their test team and he can be a very crucial part of their future batting line-up.

An exciting and attacking batsman.

What do you mean hope? They already have plenty of young batsmen with potential. It's gonna take time to develop them.

 

[Arham_PakFan]

Amazing talent.

Agree with this. The more international cricket they play, the better they will get.

 

[Napa]

I believe his FC average is 60+. Should do well.

 

[Rana]

Well he takes everything on. He plays the short ball every time, which is a great sign of confidence but maybe needs to learn to leave the odd one.

 

[Usman Chadda]

I believe his FC average is 60+. Should do well.

Whats more impressive is the strike-rate, 81.2!

 

[sachin100]

Srilankan batsman are decent technically and are not duds against pace like pak batsmen who scores mostly against spinners but the problem is they play too many shots and perish

 

[Specialisttailender]

He bats like Mahela.

 

[MenInG]

Brilliant 93* by Samarawickrama in the Super 4 game against Bangladesh

 

[FearlessRoar]

Hundred by Sadeera Samarawickrama just in 82 balls

 

[SpiritOf1903]

Rajapaksa 2.0

 

[Smbhayi]

He's a gem for SL atm.. look like he thrives under pressure.. played well in Asia cup too . There's a match he scored with 130+ strike rate where everyone else struggle to score at decent pace..

 

[WengerOut]

A sublime player of spin, weak against pace.

 

[FearlessRoar]

Sadeera Samarawickrama's skill in rotating the strike and consistently finding boundaries at the number 4 position is commendable. He played exceptionally well, scoring a solid 52 off 61 against Afghanistan in the 2nd ODI.
