5 promising signs for Sri Lanka despite a miserable series against India

Chin up, lads — Any positives from a 0-9 whitewash?

#2 Niroshan Dickwella- The man for all formats

A very impressive, dynamic batsman who is always on the lookout for runs, Niroshan Dickwella has established himself as the number one wicket-keeper for Sri Lanka in all formats.

He has played some good knocks, and better shot selection could have helped his cause even more as he was well set in most of his knocks but he gave it away too soon.

Behind the stumps, he has been agile, sharp and hasn’t missed too many opportunities. A huge bright spot for Sri Lanka amidst their ongoing ordeal in recent times.

It’s very nice to see how Dickwella has taken the responsibility of wicket-keeping across all formats and so far he has been successful at that. Sri Lanka need to take good care of him, make sure he’s not overburdened.

The last thing this Sri Lankan team needs at this current juncture is to lose Dickwella for a prolonged period of time.
