History
Nagenahira was one of the franchises in the proposed inaugural Sri Lankan Premier League in 2011 and represents the Eastern Province. They signed Shahid Afridi as their captain but due to some issues, 2011's event was cancelled at the eleventh hour. In 2012, they were purchased at the lowest price of $3.22 million by Varun Beverages Lanka Private Limited. Initially Shahid Afridi was to lead the team as their icon player, but since his commitments to his national team made him unavailable for the latter part of the tournament, Sri Lankan all-rounder Angelo Mathews was named the icon player and the captain of the franchise.
