Dilshan to lead Lanka against Australia
Royal Challenger Tillakaratne Dilshan has been retained as the Sri Lanka captain for the home series against Australia beginning in August. Dilshan, who led Lanka on its English tour, has not been in prime form though. Another Challenger, Nuwan Pradeep was, however, not included in the side. He was initially included for the England tour, but had to fly back home from England after being injured.
