Mahadevan sathasivam popularly alluded as "Satha" is undoubtedly the Ceylon has ever produced as the best in the world . We owe Prof. Ravindra Fernando for his painstaking research who has placed same of record for posterity resurrecting " Satha" from the oblivion , if not generations and generations to come would this 'magic wands' saga as a mere unimaginable fable!!!
The reviewer has had the opportunity to read and re-read this opus of Prof. Fernando's and finds that there are some lapses included in the book. The first chapter is titled: ' Cricket in Sri lanka 'the reviewer wishes to advocate the title as the ' Origins of Cricket in Ceylon' now Sri lanka.
Some articles cited in the book are not enlisted from pages 188-189 'Bibliography for the benefit of readers.y are viz: at page 17 Noel Padmaperuma's article published in 1984 ' where the vital cogent piece of evidence that establishes legendary cricketers innocense beyond doubt on the accusation of the murder most foul of his first wife .
