Profile

Kaushal Silva is rated by Kumar Sangakkara as a highly talented wicketkeeper-batsman. In fact, Sangakkara once said that it was the presence of the world's current best Test wicketkeeper, Prasanna Jayawardene, that kept Silva on the sidelines. A right-hand middle order-batsman, Silva has been a prolific scorer for Sinhalese Sports Club in the domestic circuit and has built up, in a relatively short time, a reputation of being a calm, sensible batsman able to play under pressure.
