Yohan Mendis is a gifted left-handed batter who plies his trade for Colts Cricket Club, having previously represented Kalutara Town Club and Tamil Union Cricket and Athletic Club. He made an impressive first-class debut in January 2018 with a half-century and backed it up the following season with his maiden century—116 against Negombo—finishing that campaign with 305 runs at 30.50, including a notable 62 against a formidable Nondescripts attack.
Across 22 first-class matches, Mendis has compiled 756 runs at 22.90, alongside limited-overs experience that includes a highest List A score of 75 in a one-day quarter-final. Highly regarded by Sri Lankan great Rangana Herath, he has complemented his domestic career with four prolific seasons in the Bradford League for Pudsey Congs, amassing 4,344 runs at 56.42 between 2022 and 2025—returns that rank him among the league’s top batting professionals in recent years.
With proven quality in both Sri Lankan and English conditions, Mendis is eager to return to the UK in 2026 to extend his remarkable run-scoring form.
Note: Mendis' eligibility window for UK club cricket (based on 5 FC matches in the last 36 months) remains open until 04 Nov 2025.
