ICC Chairman Jay Shah Congratulates Karunaratne For Outstanding Career
The 36-year-old, who came to be known as a Test specialist in an era of proliferating limited-overs games, retired from international cricket after the second match of their ICC World Test Championship series against Australia in Galle, the same ground on which he made his Test debut in 2012. He went on to play 100 Test matches for the island nation.
“Dimuth has had a very fine career during which he excelled as a batter in the most traditional format of the game, becoming only the seventh from his country to feature in 100 Tests," Jay Shah said in a statement.
