A special note by cricket journalist Andrew Fidel Fernando on Niroshan Dickwella’s innings in the challenging Test match that the Sri Lankan cricket team is facing against India in Galle has now attracted attention.
Dickwella, who came through various challenges and criticisms for a long time, played an important innings after returning to the Sri Lankan Test team, showing his experience and ability. Especially at a time when Sri Lanka was in a difficult situation of 90 runs for 5 wickets, the 146-run partnership built with Sonal Dinusha was a great strength for the Sri Lankan innings.
Dickwella scored 80 runs there and provided the necessary support to Dinusha to build the innings. Sonal Dinusha, who was at the other end, scored her maiden Test century and scored 100 runs.
Young Dinusha later mentioned that it was the first time she had batted with Dickwella Aiya and that Dickwella had created a comfortable environment for her to bat.
\u201cIt was the first time I had batted with Dickwella Aiya. He made it easy for me to bat.\u201d
Cricket is not just about runs and wickets. Giving confidence to another player in a difficult situation and giving him the space he needs to show his ability is an opportunity to show the true value of a player.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
