An Evening to walk down memory lane of a former Sri Lankan Cricket legend and coach, Athula Samarasekara with his debut literary inning "අයිස්මෝල හන්දියෙ අතුලයගෙ කතා සයුර". Athula was a hard-hitting opening batsman and a medium fast bowler, who played four Tests and 39 ODIs between 1983 and 1994. We only know him as a cricketer, yet you will most certainly be surprised to hear an unimaginable softer side of this gentle giant! Come join us on Sunday evening to relax and unwind over, dinner while listening to inspirational true stories based on the life experiences of Athula Samarasekara.
