Home Lands Group has appointed globally acclaimed cricket legend Mahela Jayawardene as the company’s Brand Ambassador, ahead of the highly anticipated Grand Launch Weekend of Central Park Boulevard Port City Colombo, the largest real estate launch in Sri Lanka, taking place from 12 to 14 June at Cinnamon Life Colombo.

Widely regarded as one of Sri Lanka’s greatest sporting icons, Jayawardene has built an extraordinary legacy founded on excellence, leadership, integrity, and achievement. A respected former Captain of the Sri Lanka national cricket team, he carved out a distinguished international career spanning nearly two decades, earning global recognition for his contributions to the game both on and off the field.

Throughout his career, Jayawardene established himself as one of the most accomplished batsmen in cricket history, becoming one of the few players to surpass 10,000 runs in both Test and One Day International (ODI) cricket. He led Sri Lanka to the ICC Cricket World Cup final in 2007 and played a pivotal role in some of the nation’s most memorable achievements on the international stage, including the country’s ICC T20 World Cup triumph in 2014. Renowned for his professionalism, strategic thinking, and calm leadership, Jayawardene’s influence has extended far beyond his playing career. 

Speaking on this partnership, Jayawardene said: “I am honoured to come on board as Brand Ambassador to Sri Lanka’s no. 1, most trusted, and most innovative developer Home Lands Group and to join hands with a brand that strives to work and deliver with the values of trust, innovation, and excellence.”

The partnership between Home Lands and Jayawardene represents a natural alignment of values and vision. Both have built their reputations on trust, consistency, credibility, innovation, and excellence, earning the respect of audiences both locally and internationally. 

Just as Jayawardene carried Sri Lankan excellence onto the global sporting stage, Home Lands has become the leading force in showcasing the potential of Sri Lankan real estate to the world.

Together, they embody a shared commitment to raising standards, delivering on promises, and creating a legacy built on integrity, achievement, and long-term success.

Home Lands Group of Companies Chairman Nalin Herath said: “Mahela is one of Sri Lanka’s most respected global ambassadors, whose achievements, leadership, and influence have earned recognition well beyond the world of cricket. It is this legacy of excellence, credibility, and international stature that makes him a natural fit for Home Lands, as the company continues to elevate Sri Lankan real estate onto the global stage.”
