Shehan Fernando is an exceptional prospect who has represented the Sri Lankan Emerging Players, and is currently playing domestic cricket for Sri Lanka Army Sports Club.

A player of national potential, Fernando was picked for the Sri Lankan Emerging Players tour to Japan in May 2023. He was a stand-out performer with the bat, and now seems destined for higher honours.

Fernando, who also keeps wicket and bowls off-spin, has long been regarded as a serious prospect. He scored 274 runs at 30.44, including a hundred, in the Sri Lankan Emerging Three Day Tournament in 2021/22.

Thereafter, he was picked for the Army senior side in both List A (July 2022) and first-class cricket (Aug 2022), before making his T20 debut the following year (May 2023).

Fernando enjoyed a breakthrough opening season (2022/23), hitting 559 runs at 34.93 (FC), and 214 runs at 26.75 (List A), before backing up with a further 295 runs at 49.16 (FC) and 261 runs at 32.62 (List A).

He clearly has a penchant for big runs - to date, Fernando has scored 2 first-class centuries, namely 166 and 121.

Now an established Army player, the versatile cricketer is eager to play UK club cricket but for the 2025 season.

There are no overseas stats available for this player.
