National, August 9, 2023: Wanindu Hasaranga has been playing at his absolute peak with masterful skills in the Lanka Premier League 2023. He has brought his A game to the competition. The great spinner and B-Love Kandy coach Mushtaq Ahmed was also amazed by the brilliant all-rounder and shared his insights into what makes the Sri Lankan player such a valuable asset in cricket.
The B-Love Kandy brand is also under his leadership in the league, and he is doing a fantastic job, as evidenced by the fact that the team currently leads the standings with six points after five games.
Leg spinners are always a mystery, but it feels amazing and enjoyable when no one chooses you. Wanindu Hasaranga has superb line and length, as well as excellent variation. The third essential quality that a leg-spinner should possess is temperament, according to Mushtaq.
Wanindu Hasaranga is unique since he is a three-in-one player because he can bat as well, which is a benefit. He can deliver and execute his talents under pressure extremely efficiently.
Wanindu Hasaranga teammates are impressed by his leadership abilities and think the Lanka Premier League 2023 has been beneficial in developing both the player and Sri Lanka’s future leaders.
According to Dinesh Chandimal
He is a great skipper and has developed a lot of patience since being a skipper. He wasn’t as composed when he was a player before.
Yes, the mind does play a significant role in this sport, but you also need to focus on your skill to go out there and execute. Even though Wanindu Hasaranga is young, he is incredibly mature. He has several levels of thinking, and he can lead the Sri Lankan team going forward, according to former captain Angelo Mathews.
Contrarily, Wanindu Hasaranga claimed that he is always learning from the wisdom of both of his team’s experienced players.
“You know Mathews and Chandimal, they’re very friendly and talented athletes. They both served as captains for Sri Lanka for such a long time and have accumulated a tonne of playing and captaining experience, and I believe I’m still learning from them, the all-rounder said.
Aside from B-Love Kandy, the other teams in the league include the Colombo Strikers, Niroshan Dickwella, Dambulla Aura, Dasun Shanaka, Galle Titans, and the reigning champions, Jaffna Kings, headed by seasoned Sri Lankan all-rounder Thisara.
