He is an English cricketer of Sri Lankan Tamil heritage. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm medium-fast bowler. He currently plays county cricket for Hampshire County Cricket Club, in the Indian Premier League for the Rajasthan Royals and for the Otago Volts in New Zealand state cricket. With a name like Dimitri Mascarenhas, and an Aussie twang thrown into the mix, 'Dimi' was never going to be your run-of-the-mill county pro. And so it has proved. Born in Middlesex to Sri Lankan parents, but brought up in Perth, Western Australia, Mascarenhas returned to these shores in 1996 to play for Hampshire, making an immediate impact whilst taking 6 for 88 against Glamorgan on debut. At his most effective in one-day cricket, he has made a habit of producing big performances in vital games, including a Man of the Match performance in the 1998 NatWest trophy semi-final when he took 3 for 28 and scored 73. Mascarenhas also had great success in Australian junior cricket, captaining Western Australia at Under-17 and Under-19 state level competition. Mascarenhas signed in 2008 for the Rajasthan Royals of the Indian Premier League. Following the ECB's decision to not allow centrally-contracted England players to play in this tournament, Mascarenhas was the only English representative in the tournament's inaugurate year.
