T. M. Dilshan has been appointed the captain for the one day and T20 series in England...
No vice captain has been appointed yet. becuase "the prospective candidates are nursing injuries, and their availability for the forthcoming tour is still in question." according to the SLC.
Dilshan made his debut against Zimbabwe at Bulawayo, Nov 18-22, 199
With his relentless aggression, strong wrists and natural timing, Tillakaratne Dilshan is one of the most exciting batsmen in the game today. He is technically sound, but, much like Virender Sehwag, he uses the defensive option only as a last resort, after all the attacking alternatives have been explored. He loves to make room and thrash the ball through the off side, but the stroke that bears his signature more than any other is the one he developed for the 2009 ICC World Twenty20 - the scoop shot over his head, which confounded bowlers and experts alike. He was the first cricketer to have a cricket shot named after him.... - The dil Scoop
Let us all gather to wish him the best of luck.....!
