Warushavithana Saman Jayantha (born January 26, 1974 in Ambalangoda) is a Sri Lankan cricketer who played 17 one-day internationals for Sri Lanka in 2004 before he was dropped by the Sri Lankan selectors. He started his international career by scoring 24 runs in two matches against Australia as a middle order batsman, but improved during Sri Lanka's 5–0 whitewash of Zimbabwe in April 2004, hitting a career-best 74 not out to guide Sri Lanka to a nine-wicket win in the second ODI. However, he only played three of Sri Lanka's six matches during the 2004 Asia Cup, and was in and out of the team until successive ducks against Pakistan and New Zealand caused his exit from the team.
