Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka urges for throw-down coach like India's 'Bawwa'

India TV News  

Ahead of Thursday's first ODI against South Africa, Sri Lankan white ball cricket captain Dasun Shanaka has made a special request to provide some 'throw down' coaches to the young team, just like Sri Lankan 'Bawwa' in the Indian team. Dasun has made this special request from the cricket management to provide two throw down specialists - left arm and right arm to train the youngsters to get ready to face the South African bowlers. Nicknamed 'Bawwa', former Sri Lankan first class cricketer Nuwan Sevenviratne was part of the Sri Lankan coaching staff and throws the ball at a speed of around 175 kmph. Well-known for his left hand throw downs in the nets with maximum speed to around 175 kmph, Nuwan was recruited to Indian team in 2018 after he was sent out from Sri Lanka due to complaints by players that he was too fast.
