With two days to go for the Players Draft in the Abu Dhabi T10 League, Deccan Gladiators have retained Sri Lankan leggie and explosive batter, Wanindu Hasaranga in the squad.
Hasaranga, who is currently playing for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in the Indian Premier League (IPL), shot into the limelight in his first-ever one-day international (ODI) when he claimed a hat-trick against Zimbabwe and thereby became the third debutant and the first leggie in the history of the game to claim that feat.
Someone who was drafted straight into the senior national squad from his Under-19 side, Hasaranga plays all formats of the game (Test, ODIs, T20Is and T10) and his all-round abilities can be vital in Deccan Gladiators’ quest for their maiden Abu Dhabi T10 title this season.
“I am a leg-spinner and I am eagerly waiting to meet my childhood hero and coach of Deccan Gladiators, the legendary leg-spinner from Pakistan Mushtaq Ahmed. I am sure I will be able to learn a lot from him," said Hasaranga after his retention in the Deccan Gladiators squad. (Agencies)
