Recalling Dickwella and the brothers who saved a match while mourning

Niroshan Dickwella gave a timely reminder to the national selectors when he cracked a timely 83 off 73 balls to lead Sri Lanka A team to a superb four-wicket win over Australia A team in their second unofficial ODI played at the SSC ground on Friday. He was immediately included in the 21-member Sri Lanka squad for the forthcoming five-match ODI series against the touring Australians, along with former captain Dinesh Chandimal who too has won the Observer-Mobitel Schoolboy Cricketer of the Year in 2009.
