Warnakulasuriya Tharindu Nimantha Fernando (born 1 May 1987) is an Italian cricketer of Sri Lankan origin. He made his debut for the Italian national side at the 2013 European T20 Championship. [1]
A right-handed batsman bowling occasional medium pace, Fernando played only a single match in his debut tournament, making a four-ball duck against Guernsey. [2] By winning the European T20 Championship, Italy qualified for the 2013 World Twenty20 Qualifier, where matches had full Twenty20 status. [3] Although he featured in both of Italy's warm-up games (against Bermuda and the Netherlands), in the full tournament Fernando played only in the last game of the competition, the ninth-place playoff against Namibia. In his only full Twenty20 match to date, he scored two runs before being run out by Craig Williams, and did not bowl. [4] Fernando played his first full tournament for Italy in June 2014, playing all six matches at the 2014 WCL Division Four tournament in Singapore. [5] His best performance there came in the match against Malaysia, where he scored 43 from 62 balls coming in seventh in the batting order, featuring in an 82-run sixth-wicket stand with Alessandro Bonora. [6]
Fernando has been included in Italy's squad for its next major tournament, the 2015 European T20 Championship in Jersey. [7]
