Angelo Mathews

Angelo Mathews is a Sri Lankan all-rounder, born on 2 June, 1987, in Colombo. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm fast-medium bowler. He was a part of the Sri Lankan team in the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup and was their captain in the 2015 edition of the tournament.

Mathews made his List A debut for Sri Lanka Under-23s against New Zealand A at Police Park Ground, Colombo in September, 2005. He captained the Sri Lankan cricket team in the 2006 U-19 Cricket World Cup in Sri Lanka. He later made his first-class debut for Colombo Cricket Club in November, 2006.

Mathews made his ODI debut in 2008-09 and earned a Test cap eight months later. His most memorable performance, of course, came against England at Headingley, where as captain he scored 160 and claimed 4 for 44 to lead Sri Lanka to a historic win. This came after 102 in the previous Test at Lord’s. He also masterminded two sensational ODI chases, against Australia at MCG and against Pakistan at Premadasa.
