Mohamed Shiraz

About

Mohamed Shiraz is a Sri Lankan right-arm medium-fast bowler known for disciplined lines, steady movement, and a hardworking approach. Born in Kandy, he built his reputation through domestic cricket, where consistent performances eventually brought him into the national conversation. Shiraz focuses on hitting a testing length, using seam movement, and making batters play rather than searching for excessive pace. His accuracy can be useful with the new ball and during controlled spells in the middle overs. After years of domestic experience, he made his One Day International debut against India in Colombo in August 2024. That opportunity reflected the patience and persistence behind his journey to senior international cricket. He is also capable of contributing with the bat in the lower order, although bowling remains his primary responsibility. Shiraz offers teams a reliable seam option and, with regular opportunities, can continue developing his variations, confidence, and effectiveness in limited-overs cricket.
