Tillakaratne Dilshan, earlier known as Tuwan
Mohammad Dilshan before he converted from Islam to Buddhism, burst
onto to the international scene with an unbeaten 163 against
Zimbabwe in his first series (November 1999). Technically sound,
comfortable against fast bowling, possessed of quick feet, strong
wrists and natural timing, Dilshan has talent in abundance. But the
bright start to his career was followed by a frustrating 15 months
when he was shovelled up and down the order, and in and out of the
side. After a lean series against England in 2001 he was dumped
until a one-day and Test return in 2003. He came back mentally
stronger and determined to play his own natural aggressive game. The
approach was immediately successful with a string of good scores
against England and Australia, and then came some match-winning
bowling performances against South Africa
