In the 15th match of the Indian Premier League 2025, a player of Sunrisers Hyderabad made a debut of a player who is playing IPL for the first time. It is being talked about Kamindu Mendis who was made by Sunrisers Hyderabad against Kolkata Knight Riders. Let me tell you that Kavya Maran bought this player for 75 lakhs in IPL auction. This gift was no less than anyone for Kamindu Mendis and after that he also took a big decision.
Kamindu recently married his long -time girlfriend Nishni. After marriage, he celebrated a small honeymoon in Haputale, but left the honeymoon cut for the IPL and joined the SRH camp. This reflects their professionalism.
Born on 30 September 1998 in Gaul, Sri Lanka, Kamindu Mendis is a unique talent. He is known as an "Ambedxtrus bowler", that is, he can bowl with an off-spin and left-handed left-arm orthodox with the right hand. He started cricket from Richmond College and soon became the captain of Sri Lanka's Under-19 team.
