Dilshan not ready to retire yet

12 Jan, 2016

Sri Lanka’s opening T-20 batsman Tilakaratne Dilshan says he is not prepared to retire from the game as yet as he feels he is still in good form.

Dilshan was visibly annoyed following?the final?T-20 match between Sri Lanka and New Zealand recently when a Sri Lankan fan had told him to retire from the game.

The comment from the fan came as Sri Lanka lost the series against New Zealand and Dilshan was seen reacting by asking the fan if he can play better than him.

Speaking to a local radio station today, Dilshan said that he reacted with disappointment at the fan especially since the fan was a Sri Lankan.

However he said he was still in good form and so he had no immediate plans to retire from the short form of the game.

Dilshan has already retired from Test cricket and he says if his form drops in one-day international or T-20 cricket then he will retire. (Colombo Gazette)
