Profile & Biography
After a brief period as the first choice keeper, Dassanayake
joined the ever increasing list of players to have held the
position. His batting fell below that of international standards
and that led to him being replaced. Despite this when asked to
bat at first drop to counter the threat of the South African pace
attack, which had been demolishing the top order, he did so with
courage. After Chamara Dunusinghe was preferred for the tour to
New Zealand in 1994/95, Dassanayake made a return to the
international scene, representing Sri Lanka 'A' against England A
in 1998. (Johann Jayasekera, [email protected])
