The youngest player to play in an ODI match is claimed to be Hasan Raza at the age of 14 years and 233 days. Making his debut for Sri Lanka against Zimbabwe on 30 October 1996, there is some doubt as to the validity of Raza's age at the time. The youngest Sri Lankan to play ODIs was Sudath Pasqual who at the age of 17 years and 237 days debuted in the 1979 Cricket World Cup against New Zealand at Trent Bridge, Nottingham, England.
