Kalana Perera is a tall left-arm pacer playing for the star-studded Sinhalese Sports Club in Sri Lankan domestic cricket.
Known for his booming in-swingers, Perera has excelled across the three formats culminating with Sri Lankan honours at U19, Emerging Player, and A level.
An exciting prospect, Perera made his List A debut for the SL Emerging team against their Oman counterparts in November 2019 and hasn’t looked back.
During the 2020/21 SLC T20 Tournament, Perera led Sinhalese to their maiden title since its inauguration in 2005. Over the past three seasons, he has topped the Sinhalese T20 wicket charts and been a Lankan Premier League (LPL) regular for Dambulla Aura.
As it stands, Perera is quickly moving towards 100 domestic matches where he boasts tremendous numbers, averaging mid-20s in both first-class, and List A, and the remarkable average of 13.94 in his 29 T20 matches.
Whilst known for his left-arm seamers, Perera is a more than capable batter in the middle-lower order. Opportunities have yet to come his way in domestic cricket with bat-in-hand, but he feels he has the ability to become a genuine all-rounder in future.
The Sri Lankan prospect is clearly a player for the future who embarked on his first overseas stint in 2024. Playing for Dorridge in the strong Birmingham and District Premier League, Perera bagged 52 wickets at 17.21 and scored a few useful runs to boot, to cap off a strong maiden stint.
The talented left armer is now seeking a UK return in 2025, and represents an excellent acquisition.
