Imesh Udayanga

Imesh Udayanga is a seasoned spin-bowling all-rounder with over a decade of experience in Sri Lankan domestic cricket.

A former Sri Lanka Under-19 representative, Udayanga has featured in nearly 200 domestic matches since his T20 debut in April 2008. Across formats, he has scored over 3,600 runs (HS: 107) and taken more than 240 wickets—most of them in the longer format.

He has represented Kandy Customs Sports Club since joining them in the 2022/23 season, and has signed to play for Burgher Recreation Club for the 2026/27 season. Over the years, he has also turned out for several leading Sri Lankan teams including Galle, Moors, Nondescripts, Badureliya, and Ports Authority.

Udayanga has also enjoyed success overseas. In Australia, he played three seasons—two with Bundoora United (2016/17–17/18) in the Diamond Valley Cricket Association and one with Brown Hill (2019/20) in the Ballarat Cricket Association. Across 37 matches, he scored 762 runs at 27.21 and took 44 wickets at 24.93.

In England, he was outstanding across two seasons for Madeley in the Shropshire County Cricket League (2021–22), scoring 1,598 runs at 47.00 and claiming 72 wickets at 18.85. He then moved to Lindfield in the Sussex League, where he has gone from strength to strength — 2,752 runs at 55.04 and 101 wickets at 15.98 across four seasons there since 2023. He's in the middle of arguably his best form yet in 2026, having already struck 912 runs at 65.14 (including three centuries and a top score of 152) and taken 23 wickets, and remains a mainstay of the club's first team as the season continues.
