Kamindu Mendis: The Sri Lankan Bradman
Cricket has seen its fair share of prodigies—players who burst onto the scene and redefine how the game is perceived. Kamindu Mendis, with his remarkable start in Test cricket, has quickly etched his name among the brightest of those stars. Hailing from Sri Lanka, a nation known for producing batting greats like Kumar Sangakkara, Aravinda de Silva, and Mahela Jayawardene, Mendis is carving out his own path in the game. Comparisons to Don Bradman, the greatest batter in cricket history, are not made lightly. However, Mendis' early achievements have sparked such conversations, especially after reaching the coveted milestone of 1,000 Test runs in just 13 innings—placing him on par with Bradman.
