Hasaranga, Theekshana set for maiden CPL stints

Sri Lanka spinners Wanindu Hasaranga and Maheesh Theekshana are set to make their CPL debuts in the forthcoming season after having been signed by defending champions St Kitts & Nevis Patriots and Trinbago Knight Riders respectively.

Hasaranga, who was the No.1-ranked T20I bowler not too long ago, was lined up to play for Patriots last season, but a clash with South Africa’s tour of Sri Lanka meant that he had to stay back home for national duty.
