Roger Wijesuriya: A Lost Name with the Worst Test Bowling Average | ODI Debut Bowling vs Pak 1982

Описание: Today, we revisit the forgotten tale of Roger Wijesuriya, a left-arm spinner who played for Sri Lanka during the early years of their Test journey. Wijesuriya made his ODI debut against Pakistan on March 12, 1982, at Karachi, returning with figures of 1 for 48 in 8 overs. Although his career lasted only four Test matches and eight ODIs, he remains a unique figure in cricket history.

Unfortunately, Roger Wijesuriya is remembered for an unwanted record – having one of the worst bowling averages in Test cricket. But behind the numbers lies the story of a cricketer who represented his nation during its most challenging phase, when Sri Lanka was still finding its feet in international cricket.

This video takes you back to the 1980s, highlighting the struggles, the hope, and the reality of a bowler who deserves to be remembered not just for his stats, but for his contribution during the formative years of Sri Lanka’s cricketing journey.
