This is the second year the award has been given to recognise the most impressive performance by a player in Twenty20 Internationals during the 12-month voting period and it continues to mark the advent of this exciting format of the game at international level.On 19 June 2009, during the semi-final of the ICC World Twenty20 against West Indies at the Oval, Dilshan smashed 96 not out in 57 balls, in a performance that included two sixes and 12 fours. He helped to steer his side into the finals of the tournament after they beat the opposition by 57 runs.The award rounds off a good year of Twenty20 cricket for Dilshan who took the ICC World Twenty20 by storm after showcasing his astonishing flick-shot over his head and also picked up the Player of the Tournament at the ICC World Twenty20 2009 after amassing 317 runs at an average of 52.83original article with pics - <a href="http://bit.ly/2lMVCm" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/2lMVCm</a></blockquote>
