Leading all-rounder Thisara Perera has joined Sri Lanka Army. Thisara has enlisted to the Gajaba Regiment and holds the rank of Brevet Major. He will be playing domestic cricket for Army this season.
“General Shavendra Silva invited me to join Army. I have enormous respect for General Shavendra and it was a request that I could not turn down,” Thisara told The Island.
Army has been investing a lot to improve their cricket and become a force in the domestic season. Before the ongoing season got underway, Army recruited former Test captain Dinesh Chandimal.
Thisara is unlikely to feature in the upcoming three match T-20 series in India. Instead, he will be in Bangladesh playing in the BPL…
All these tricks and still not selected in the squad for India. Poor Panda. Next option will be to become a Buddhist and change your name to Mudiyansalage Tillakaratne Panda and you can become captain for a few months.
Well done Thisara! Do well in the army and leave Sri Lankan cricket team alone. Doing just fine without you.
CONGRATS~SUPER!!!
