The Inaugural Sri Lanka Premiere League 2012

T20 is an exciting form of cricket. Instead of 4 day 5 day  long term cricket, a cricket of 3 hours was found a few years earlier and it was of great success as the crowd began to love cricket. This short term version attracted hearts of so many spectators. And also younger people began to play cricket more. We saw what IPL and BPL did to their country's cricket. So Sri Lankans wanted to have a similar T20 tounament. So making every cricket fan happy, SLC board decided to hold SLPL 2012.


This will begin tomorrow (11th) . There will 7 teams fighting representing their respective provinces.
What made me so excited about this is because of young talent which comes through this. And I am excited to see the way my favourites will go on. 
Chandimal , Thirimanne, Perera, Jeewan and lots of youngers are going to prove themselves in this tournament. According to Mahela Jayawardene, Chandimal is gonna be a crucial player as he is an aggressive player.


Chandimal who has played about 45 ODI games has already bagged 2 centuries while Mathews, Thirimanne , kapugedara couldn't bag a century yet. Let's hope he will take the best out of this tournament. 

And Thisara Perera is the player who was recommended by Kumar Sangakkara for his blasting batting and inform bowling performances.

Let's see who else gonna impress in SLPL 2012

Cheers, isuru_thiwa
