**Breaking News - 2021 Professional News**
We are delighted to announce the signing of former Sri Lanka Under 19 star Nuwanidu Fernando as our professional for the 2021 season.
Nuwanidu is a strong, top-order right handed batsman who is also a skilful off spinner and is an exciting prospect in Sri Lankan cricket.
Nuwanidu currently plays for SSC (Sinhalese Sports Club) in Sri Lanka and in first class cricket he has scored 441 runs in 9 matches with a average of 29.40 and a top score of 109
Recently Nuwanidu has been playing in the Under 23 Major Youth Tournament in Sri Lanka for SSC guiding them to the semi final stage alongside former professional Ashen Bandara, before it was put on hold due to the covid situation scoring a fine 108 against Galle in the process.
Nuwanidu was due to join us in 2020 but the covid pandemic put a hold on it so we can’t wait for Nuwanidu to come over to the UK next year and join the Club and I’m sure that everyone, as always, will make him feel welcome.
We’d also like to thank Steven at CricX for all the help and support with getting this over the line.
