(COLOMBO, LANKAPUVATH) –Former Sri Lanka pacer Nuwan Kulasekara has retired from international cricket with immediate effect.
Known for his ability to swing the new ball both ways, the 37-year old exits as Sri Lanka’s third-highest ODI wicket-taker among seamers behind Chaminda Vaas and Lasith Malinga, with 199 scalps in 184 matches. Kulasekara, too, is the joint second-highest wicket-taker for Sri Lanka in T20Is, with 66 wickets in 58 matches.
Only Lasith Malinga has more T20I wickets than him among Sri Lankans.
