The Sri Lankan maverick, most famously known for his "Dil-scoop" shot, joined RCB after three good seasons with the Delhi Daredevils, when he scored 566 runs from 27 matches at an average of 24.61 and a strike rate of 119.66. He continued his fine run with RCB, where he made another 587 runs from 25 matches, at an average of 27.95. He also broke his previous high of 67* to raise the bar to 76*.

However, Dilshan failed to create an impact throughout the 2013-14 international seasons, and he couldn't find a buyer in the 2014 IPL. He continued to fade out while playing for Sri Lanka, in what was a very sad finish to his remarkable career.

His IPL career ended with his last season with RCB in 2013, since when he has not featured in the tournament.
