Sri Lanka's Dimuth Karunaratne To Bow Out Of Tests After 'Fulfilling Dream'

By AFP News February 05, 2025 • 19:52 PM View: 932

Dimuth Karunaratne said he had fulfilled a childhood dream after the Sri Lanka opener announced that his 100th Test, against Australia starting Thursday, will be his last.

The 36-year-old former skipper was a rock at the top of the Sri Lankan order for more than a decade, but has gone 25 innings without a century.
