Everyone needs to take more responsibility says Sri Lankan skipper – Cricket News Update
Sri Lankan skipper, http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Pakistan-c755.
The visitors flocked to their fourth defeat in the last five games, as they were again outplayed by a strong Men In Green unit on their tour of the Middle east. The grey area highlighted by Dilshan has been their under fire batting line up, which have yet
to come to terms after a succession of failures.
However, the Lankan captain was quick to figure out a few positives and hopes to make amends in their next battle, which sees them take on a formidable South African unit.
"I can still take positives, especially from the bowling unit - who did a great job throughout the series," Dilshan said, after the loss in the fifth ODI in Abu Dhabi. "[However], we must be worried about the batting as most of the batsmen didn't click.
Everyone has to take responsibility before going to http://www.senore.com/Cricket/South-Africa-c757."
After being robbed of leveling the series thanks to a towering all-round performance from http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Shahid-Afridi-c2482 in the fourth ODI, the Lankans again found themselves on the receiving end of some prime seam bowling.
The likes of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/AD-Mathews-c913 in the middle stages, the team surrendered to some precise spin bowling from
http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Saeed-Ajmal-c87859 and Afridi.
Dilshan’s own form has been a major worry where he has yet to score a century in the limited overs format, after being named as the captain following the World Cup final loss at the hands of http://www.senore.com/Cricket/India-c750.
For that, the all-rounder knows that he needs to work on a few areas and hopes to get back among the runs in the near future.
“….I know I am good and I can get runs. I want to go back to http://www.senore.com/Cricket/Sri-Lanka-c758 work on few areas to get back my form," added Dilshan.
Both teams will battle in the one-off T20 to round of the tour on November 25, 2011.
