If I’m given the captaincy of the Sri Lankan Cricket team I will give my all and serve the nation, cricketer T.M. Dilshan told Ada Derana when questioned on the recent retirement of Kumar Sangakkara from the captaincy.
Dilshan added that the captaincy is a big responsibility and that he was prepared to give a 100 percent effort to lead the country to victory if chosen for the post.
Sangakkara who steped down from the captaincy strongly recommended Dilshan and Angelo Mathews as his personal choices to take up the mantle. He added that the Selectors should seriously look at Dilshan for the potential post.
