Wahab Riaz to represent Ruhana Royals in SLPL2012

By Tasawwar Abbas


LAHORE (TheSportsNext) August 8, 2012: Pakistan’s left-arm fast bowler Wahab Riaz will be part of the Ruhana Royals in the inaugural Sri Lanka Premier League 2012 (SLPL2012) after its coach Waqar Younis recommended the franchise to acquire the pacer.


 

The maiden edition of the Sri Lanka Premier League is swinging into action from August 11, 2012 and Pakistani left-armer, who grabbed five wickets against India in last year’s ICC Cricket World Cup semi-final match against India in Mohali, will get a great chance of making a comeback into the national side.

Apart from Wahab Riaz, Ruhana Royals also have the service of international cricket stars like former Pakistani skipper Shahid Khan Afridi, Lasith Malinga (captain of the side), South African opener Richard Levi, Kiwi off-spinner Nathan McCullum, Aussie Aaron Finch, West Indian pacer Jerome Taylor, and locals Chamara Silva, Prasanna Jayawardene, and Lahiru Thirimanne.
