Dilshan remains one of the most feared players in the format and come next season, he would be eager to change things.If a bowler takes 16 wickets in 13 T20 matches, some might say it is a decent performance. Think again! Dinda may have got the wickets, but was hammered most of the times. He finished the tournament with an economy rate of 9.48, having bowled 49 overs. The thing that was worrying was that he kept bowling in the batsman’s zone and got punished. As a result, he lost his place in the Indian side, having been in the roster for almost a year. He is a destructive player and someone who needs that one good knock to get back into form. While it may not have mattered as he was due to leave for England for national duty, they might have got the best out of him by persisting with him as long as he was available.

A lot was expected of the Australian great as he made a comeback to the IPL as captain of the Mumbai Indians. Many felt that he would come into this tournament to enjoy his cricket as the pressure of international cricket was off his shoulders. But he struggled to make a mark and had to ultimately sacrifice his spot for the team’s cause. Nevertheless, he was a vital cog in the Mumbai set-up contributing with his invaluable inputs.In a power-packed Royal Challengers Bangalore batting line-up, Dilshan couldn’t match the likes of Virat Kohli, Chris Gayle and AB de Villiers. Gayle’s mind-boggling efforts made him look slow on many occasions and he never got going. As a result, Bangalore opted to play an overseas bowling option or an all-rounder instead of him. That not only strengthened their bowling, but also handed an Indian youngster an opportunity. Dilshan remains one of the most feared players in the format and come next season, he would be eager to change things.
