Kulasekara was not part of Sri Lanka’s World Cup 2019 squad and last played for the senior national team in 2017.Kulasekara hadn’t played competitive cricket at the senior level since March 2018 and he played only for list A cricket.

He is not just good at the new ball and fine bowler at the death as well as the pacer had the ability to fire in accurate yokers under pressure.

There is a big worried concern about Kulasekara’s retirement and it had became a specific news in Srilankan newspapers and stated on international websites as well.

In a letter addressed to SLC, Kulasekera says,
“I would like to retire from playing Test cricket with immediate effect. After much thought I believe it is the right time to retire and I hope it will allow me to better prepare for ODI and T20 cricket, which I would like to continue playing for Sri Lanka subject to good performance and selection”

The former strike bowler with 48 test wickets to his name and best innings figures of 4/21, was ranked the ICC ODI No1 bowler in March 2009 after a 47 wicket haul in the preceding eleven months.

His prowess is an integral part of the Sri Lankan bowling arsenal, and Sri Lanka Cricket wishes him many more wickets to come! (SLC)
