LPL Auction 2024: Full list of retained and sold players
The right arm pacer was signed by Colombo Strikers for a whopping USD 120,000.
Matheesha Pathirana became a household name after Chennai Super Kings picked him in the Indian Premier League 2022. His bowling action resembled Sri Lankan great Lasith Malinga and he more or less did the same job for CSK. MS Dhoni advised him not to play too much of red-ball cricket and to focus on the shorter versions of the game. Now, Pathirana has fetched the highest bid in the history Lanka Premier League 2024.
The right arm pacer was signed by Colombo Strikers for a whopping USD 120,000. Pathirana was released by the Strikers ahead of the previous season and he ended up getting back to his old franchise with a hefty price tag. Talking about his IPL 2024 performance, he picked 13 wickets with an economy rate of 7.68. He left the team midway as he pulled up a hamstring injury.
