Tillakaratne Dilshan
Tillakaratne Dilshan led Sri Lanka to an impressive T20I win over Australia

Dilshan was a force to reckon with even in the shortest format of the game. In 2011, in Pallekele, the right-hander tore apart an Australian attack, comprising of Brett Lee, John Hastings and Mitchell Johnson to pilot his way to an undefeated 57-ball 104.

The home side racked up an impressive 198 with Sangakkara being the next highest scorer after Dilshan with 30.

Australia never really got going and apart from David Warner, who scored a 53 from 62 balls, the chase fell flat. The team from Down Under played out their 20 overs but could only manage 163 in response, thus handing Sri Lanka a 35 run win.
