About Dinesh Chandimal
Dinesh Chandimal has shown immense potential in the short time that he has spent with the Sri Lankan team. A hard-hitting wicket keeper-batsman, Chandimal has played some match-winning knocks and has grabbed the attention of the cricketing world. Many in Sri Lanka have suggested that Chandimal is a player for the future and has got the potential to adjust his style to suit all forms of the game.
Chandimal had a tragic start to his cricketing career. His father had a meagre income. Things got even worse for him when the Tsunami struck in 2004 and his family was affected by it. Coming into the trials for the Under-13 squad as a bowler who could bat, Chandimal's bowling action was deemed controversial and was left out.
