| Charitha Malinga Bandara (born December 31, 1979, Kalutara, Sri Lanka is a Sri Lankan Test and one-day international cricketer. He is a right hand batter and he also bowls legbreaks. Bandara made his Test debut against New Zealand in 1998, but performed poorly and was subsequently dropped. A useful performance against England 'A' in March 2005 (match-figures of 11 for 126) resulted in a Test recall in December, finishing the three-Test series against India with nine wickets at an average of 32.88. Bandara made his ODI debut against New Zealand in January 2006 at Wellington. He took his best bowling figures of 4 for 31 against South Africa in the final VB Series round robin match at the Bellerive Oval, Hobart on the February 7, 2006. This performance ensured Sri Lanka would face Australia in the VB Series finals. In Sri Lankan domestic cricket, Bandara represents the Galle Cricket Club. He has also played county cricket for English team Gloucestershire.
