Hewa Kaluhalamullage Suraj Randiv Kaluhalamulla (born January 30, 1985) is a Sri Lankan international cricketer who plays first-class cricket for Sinhalese Sports Club.

A right arm offspinner, Suraj had a successful under-age career in Sri Lanka. He represented his country at under-15 and under-19 level and took 23 wickets in four matches at an Under-23 tournament of 2003-04. This effort caught the attention of Marvan Atapattu, who was influential in getting him over to Sinhalese Sports Club. He went on play for Sri Lanka A and Sri Lanka.

In December 2009, he replaced Muttiah Muralitharan in Sri Lanka's ODI squad in India and he made his debut in the second match of the series in Nagpur. He impressed by taking three wickets for 51 runs; Sri Lanka went on to win the match by three wickets.[1]

He changed his name from Mohamed Marshuk Mohamed Suraj in May 2009. [2]
