Raised in the bustling heart of Colombo, Sri Lanka, Sahas discovered cricket not just as a passion, but as a calling during his tender years on the lush school grounds. It wasn’t long before his extraordinary talent caught the eye of local coaches, prompting a journey through club cricket and onto the national stage.

In bowling, his ability to switch seamlessly between off-spin and medium pace kept batsmen perpetually on edge, never allowing them to settle.

His professional debut came with much anticipation in the provincial circuits at the age of 19, where Sahas wasted no time making an indelible mark. A breakthrough moment was during the 2021 Inter-Provincial Tournament, where he shone both with the bat, scoring a century that was as much poetry as it was power, and with the ball, delivering match-winning spells that propelled his team to victory. This performance earned him a call-up to the national squad, marking the true beginning of his illustrious professional career.

Throughout his career, Sahas has been instrumental in numerous high-stakes encounters, none more riveting than his duels against the arch-rivals from India.
