Heres what CricBuzz says about him.
Chameera broke into the Sri Lankan domestic scene during the year 2012 and started to impress almost instantly. He was highly talked about and a national call up duly arrived in 2015 across all three formats. However, injuries have hampered him a lot, affecting his Test career in particular. At a point, Chameera was touted as the fastest bowler in the country and given his talent, it will be tragic if he doesn't fulfill his potential but for that, staying fit is the biggest hurdle.
The IPL has had quite a few Lankans participating in it since its inception including some of their biggest names of all times. Chameera became the latest to join the League when he got snapped up by the Rajasthan Royals at the 2018 auctions. If injuries don't hamper him, he can provide some firepower to the RR bowling attack. The same goes for his international career because Sri Lanka are in desperate need for someone to spearhead their pace bowling resources.

Heres what ESPNcricinfo says about him.
Tall, slim and slippery, Dushmantha Chameera arrived at NCC in 2012, and was quickly marked out as a bowler for the future. First among his virtues is pace, generated from a slightly round-arm action that sacrifices movement. Capable of consistently hitting speeds of over 140 kph, coaches believe he had become the quickest bowler in the country by 23. He had played only a handful of games in his first two seasons, but came into his own in NCC's 2013-14 championship run, claiming 32 first-class cricket at 21.18.
Chameera's earned a place in Sri Lanka's Test squad to New Zealand at the end of 2014, but did not play a Test, despite a strong showing in the tour match. He was a late entry into the ODI squad for the same tour, and made his international debut in Wellington, and claimed the wicket of Ross Taylor with a 146kph delivery in his first over.
