Former Sri Lanka Under-19 captain Dhammika Niroshana has died at the age of 41 after he was shot by an unidentified individual outside his home in Ambalangoda, Sri Lanka, according to ESPNCricinfo.
Niroshana retired early from all formats of the game, despite a promising career. He is survived by his wife and two children.
The late all-rounder led the likes of Angelo Mathews, Upul Tharanga and Farveez Maharoof, at the U-19 level, but never played at senior level himself.
