100th ODI for KJP : “after all you were a Right Hander who became a Left Hander cause you loved your Idol Sanath J “

Kusal Janith Perera is set to play his 100th ODI today. His long time mentor and manager Ravi De Silva had this message to say about him.

“Few will know what the young lad went thro for erroneous reasons in terms of almost stalling his swashbuckling Cricket 🏏 career in the distant past 

You’ve had Bad and Tough Times Good and Super Duper Times But stood tall and took it all on 

You didn’t equate the 2nd fastest ODI fifty nor The best Test Innings ever Played in the History of Cricket by chance !! 

Your Cricket has always been unique after all you were a Right Hander who became a Left Hander cause you loved your Idol Sanath J !! 

Congrats KJP153* 

I’ve enjoyed every minute believing and standing by you thro your incredible at most times unbelievable but very brief career as I type 

Cheers and All the best 

I am very certain many Sri Lankan’s support you and have been entertained by you 

Make sure that happens ! Until you “hang your boots up” if and when that happens”
