5 must-haves for the South Africa-Sri Lanka ODI series

#3 Niroshan Dickwella (Sri Lanka) – 8

Niroshan Dickwella has been one of the promising young stars for a Sri Lankan side who have been in a transitional phase for a long time now. Now, however, it seems that the 23-year-old is finally realising his potential and playing to that level as he was named as the man-of-the-match for the final T20I as well as the man-of-the-series for the T20I series.

Dickwella put in a top-notch performance with the bat by scoring 133 runs in the 3 T20Is at an average of 44.33 and at an impressive strike rate of 156.47. His ODI record is not that bad either as he averages just under 37 in the 6 matches he has played so far. He will be expected to carry on his impressive form from the 20-over format to the 50-over format.

Costing just 8, Dickwella is very light on the wallet of the owners and gives excellent returns. He has earned 247 points from the 3 T20Is he played.
