Player Bio
Chamani Roshini Seneviratne (born 14 November 1978 in Anuradhapura) is a Sri Lankan cricketer. She scored Sri Lanka's only century in Women's Test cricket,[1] with an unbeaten 105 against Pakistan in April 1998. She also did it on her debut. By scoring a test century on debut, she became only the eighth batswoman to score a test hundred on debut.[2][3] After Chamani Seneviratne's century on debut, in Sri Lanka cricket's history the first-ever test centurions on debuts for both Sri Lanka men's national cricket team as well as Sri Lanka women's national cricket team came on debuts of Brendon Kuruppu and Seneviratne, respectively. An all-rounder, she has played one Test and 47 One Day Internationals for Sri Lanka. Chamani Seneviratne has scored the most runs on debut test for Sri Lanka (148 runs in both innings) and she is also the leading runscorer for Sri Lanka in test matches, despite Sri Lanka Women's managing to play their only test in 1998.[4] Her 148 runs on debut was also the fifth-highest by a woman on test debut.
