Highest wicket takers of Under-19 World Cups: Where are they now?

2014 – Anuk Fernando

Anuk Fernando celebrates the wicket of an English player in the Under 19 world cup

The left-arm medium fast bowler winded back the memories of Chaminda Vaas in the 2014 ICC Under 19 world cup when he picked up 15 wickets to become the tournament’s leading wicket-taker.

Fernando impressed with his line and length and he is no mug with the bat either. A decent all-rounder, Fernando hasn’t yet made his debut for the senior side and there is no doubt in the fact that he has the potential to don the national colours.

But before that, he has to drastically improve his First-Class performances to come into the reckoning.
