Rangana Herath: The Trailblazer

Herath’s story can inspire a documentary or two, the way he has taken up the mantle of being Sri Lanka’s premier bowler, after being tossed around for nearly a decade, is nothing short of remarkable.

Coming into his own at the age of 33 (2011), Herath transformed into a mammoth match winner for Sri Lanka. Since Dec 2011, he has been their highest wicket taker in all circumstances by some distance. It is about time that we realise and take notice of his achievements.
