Ravi Ratnayeke
Joseph Ravindran "Ravi" Ratnayeke (born 2 May 1960) is a former Sri Lankan cricketer who batted left-handed and bowled right-arm medium pace. Ratnayeke played 22 Tests and 78 ODIs from 1982 to 1990, his Test best bowling performance of eight wickets for 83 runs at Jinnah Stadium (Sialkot) Pakistan was a Sri Lankan Test record at the time, and was also vice captain to Arjuna Ranatunga.〔(Vaas: Lanka`s unsung hero ) from LankaNewspapers.com, retrieved 1 May 2006〕 Ratnayeke was described by Cricinfo writer Johann Jayasekera as able "to bowl with a lively pace and move the ball in favourable conditions", and also as "a competent batsman".
He was educated at Trinity College Kandy, and made his debut in first class cricket for Sri Lanka Under–25s against Tamil Nadu Under–25s in 1980–81. Opening the bowling with Ashantha de Mel, Ratnayeke took three wickets, and impressed the Sri Lankan selectors enough to go on tour of England in 1981. Playing six〔(First-Class Matches played by Ravi Ratnayeke (71) ) from CricketArchive, retrieved 1 May 2006〕 of Sri Lanka's fifteen matches on tour,〔(Sri Lanka in England 1981 ) from CricketArchive, retrieved 1 May 2006〕 Ratnayeke took nine wickets,〔(First-class Bowling in England for 1981 (Ordered by Average) ) from CricketArchive, retrieved 1 May 2006〕 five of which came in one match against Sussex.〔(Sussex v Sri Lankans in 1981 ), from CricketArchive, published on 1 May 2006〕
When Sri Lanka played their first Test match in February 1982, against England, Ratnayeke did not feature in the XI, though ''Wisden Cricketer's Almanack'' said after the series that leaving Ratnayeke out "gave their captain an unbalanced attack in which only De Mel was more than medium pace".〔(SRI LANKA v ENGLAND 1981–82 ), from the 1983 Wisden Cricketer's Almanack, published on Cricinfo.com, retrieved 1 May 2006〕 He did play a tour match for the Sri Lanka Board President's XI, taking five wickets for 120, and when Sri Lanka went to Pakistan the following month, he played the first and third Tests and all three ODIs. Ratnayeke was said to "improve as the tour progressed" by ''Wisden'',〔(The Sri Lankans in Pakistan, 1981–82 ), from the 1983 Wisden Cricketer's Almanack, published on Cricinfo.com, retrieved 1 May 2006〕 though he was noted as a bowler who gave little support to Sri Lanka's main three.〔 Ratnayeke took three of Sri Lanka's seven wickets in the final Test at Lahore, which Sri Lanka lost by an innings and 120 runs, and also the wicket of Zaheer Abbas in the second ODI, which Sri Lanka won on scoring rate.〔(2nd ODI: Pakistan v Sri Lanka at Lahore, 29 Mar 1982 )〕
Ratnayeke retired from cricket at the age of 30, at the end of the 1989–90 season. Shortly after, he emigrated to Perth, Australia, where he played grade cricket. He and his family later moved to Melbourne, where he gained a job with Amcor, a packaging company. Ratnayeke currently lives in Rowville, Victoria, with his wife and two children, and holds Australian citizenship.〔Coverdale, Brydon (2012). (Melbourne's Sri Lankan connection ) – ESPNcricinfo.
