Dushan Hemantha, born on May 24, 1994, is a talented cricketer from Sri Lanka. He is an all-rounder, known for his right-handed batting and right-arm leg-break bowling. Hemantha currently represents Dambulla Aura in domestic cricket.
Hemantha made his first-class debut for Colts Cricket Club during the 2013-14 Premier Trophy on February 21, 2014. Shortly after, on February 25, 2014, he made his Twenty20 debut for Colts Cricket Club in a match against Hong Kong. His List A debut came on December 13, 2014, playing for Saracens Sports Club against Colombo Cricket Club in the 2014-15 Premier Limited Overs Tournament.
In January 2023, Hemantha was selected to represent Sri Lanka A in their first-class and List A series against the England Lions. During the second unofficial ODI on February 18, 2023, he delivered an exceptional performance, taking a five-wicket haul that helped secure victory for his team against the England Lions. He showcased his talent further in the List A series, taking a total of eleven wickets at an impressive average of 11.45, earning him the title of player of the series for his outstanding bowling performance.
As a result of his remarkable performances against the England Lions, Hemantha received his maiden call-up to the Sri Lanka national cricket team in April 2023 for their Test series against Ireland. However, he did not make his debut in the second and final test match of the series, as the team management decided to maintain the winning combination from the first test.
In May 2023, Hemantha was included in Sri Lanka's One Day International squad for their series against Afghanistan.
