Career

De Silva made his Test match debut in 1984 at Lord's against England. Test cricket is the longest form of the Sport of Cricket. It has long been considered the ultimate test of playing ability between cricketing nations Lord's Cricket Ground (generally known as Lord's) is a cricket The England cricket team is the national cricket team which represents England and Wales. [2] During the early part of his career he was known as a dashing but inconsistent batsman - he was given the nickname "Mad Max" for his tendency to get out to rash shots. He later commented on his aggressive batting style: "That's my natural game - I don't want to change because I feel confident playing that way. If someone is capable of dominating the bowling, they should do it. It's the way I've been playing since I was a youngster. "[3] But a successful season playing first-class cricket for the English county Kent in 1995 marked a turning point in his career. First-class cricket refers to the class of Cricket matches of three or more days scheduled duration between two sides of eleven players and officially adjudged first-class by Kent County Cricket Club is one of the 18 first class county county cricket clubs which make up the English domestic Cricket structure representing De Silva was instrumental in Sri Lanka's triumph in the 1996 Cricket World Cup where his unbeaten century and three wickets earned him the Man of the Match award in the final against Australia. The Sri Lankan cricket team is a national Cricket team representing Sri Lanka. The 1996 Cricket World Cup (aka Wills World Cup was won by Sri Lanka who beat Australia by 7 wickets at the final in Lahore. The Australian cricket team is the national cricket team of Australia. His other notable achievements include scoring a century in each innings of a Test match on two separate occasions (only bettered by India's Sunil Gavaskar and Australia's Ricky Ponting, who each performed this feat three times). The Indian cricket team is an international Cricket team representing India. Sunil Manohar Gavaskar ( Marathi:सुनिल मनोहर गावसकर (born 10 July 1949 in Bombay, Maharashtra) nicknamed Sunny Ricky Thomas Ponting (born 19 December 1974 is a professional Australian Cricketer and current captain of the Australian cricket team in One Day International Once of these doubles was 138 and 105, both undismissed, against Pakistan at Colombo's Sinhalese Sports Club in April 1997. This made him the first, and so far only, player to score two not out centuries in the same Test match. As he had scored 168 in the second innings of the previous Test, he posted three hundreds in eight days. He finished the year with 1220 runs at 76. 25.

De Silva's highest test score of 267 was made at Basin Reserve in 1991 against New Zealand. He scored another double century in his final Test innings as well as picking up a wicket with his final delivery in Test cricket (against Bangladesh in 2002), thus retiring with a place in cricket's history secure - from all international cricket after the 2003 Cricket World Cup. The Bangladeshi cricket team, also known as "The Tigers", is a national Cricket team representing Bangladesh. The 2003 Cricket World Cup ( Official name: ICC Cricket World Cup 2003) was played in South Africa from February 9 to March 24.

County cricket with Kent

Following the Sri Lankan tour of New Zealand De Silva joined the English county side Kent in April 1995 on short notice after Kent's leading batsman of the previous season, Carl Hooper, left to join the West Indies team for the summer. Kent County Cricket Club is one of the 18 first class county county cricket clubs which make up the English domestic Cricket structure representing Carl Llewellyn Hooper (born December 15, 1966 in Georgetown, Guyana) was a West Indian Cricket player and captain [3] The season proved to be a mixed with disappointment and success for Kent, as they finished last (18th) in County Championship with only three wins and four draws out of 17 matches played. The County Championship is the domestic first class Cricket competition in England and Wales. [4] Their form in the 40-overs National Cricket League was much better, and they finished on top of the league table with 12 wins, four losses and one abandoned match. The NatWest Pro40 League, is the One-day cricket league for first class cricket counties in England and Wales. [5] In addition, Kent reached the final of Benson & Hedges Cup, where they lost to Lancashire by 35 runs despite de Silva's 112 runs. This article is about the cricket trophy for the similar named trophy for Ice Hockey see Benson & Hedges Cup (UK Ice Hockey The Benson & Hedges Cup was a Lancashire County Cricket Club is one of the eighteen major county clubs which make up the English domestic Cricket structure representing the historic [6] Personally for de Silva, the time spent with Kent marked the turning point in his career. He was the third most prolific batsman of the County Championship in 1995 after Mark Ramprakash and Nasser Hussain with 1661 runs at an average of 59. Mark Ravin Ramprakash (born 5 September 1969) is an English Cricketer A right-handed Batsman, he first made his name playing for Nasser Hussain OBE (born March 28 1968, Madras, India) is a former Essex and England Cricketer He 32 and six centuries including the highest score of the season, 255. [7] He was also often called to perform as fifth or sixth bowler, a role where he proved to be relatively economic but inefficient wicket-taker. [8][9]

1996 World Cup

De Silva did not play in Kent's two last County Championship matches having left to join the Sri Lankan squad on their tour of Pakistan. Sri Lanka had embarrassingly lost a first-class match against Pakistan Cricket Board Patron's XI and the following first Test against Pakistan both by an innings. [10] He joined the team only few days before the second Test and was dismissed for a duck in the first innings; however, in Sri Lanka's second innings his third wicket stand of 176 runs with Chandika Hathurusingha helped to win the Test for Sri Lanka. Upul Chandika Hathurusingha (born September 13, 1968 in Colombo) is a Sri Lankan Cricketer He is a right-handed batsman and a [11] Sri Lanka went on to win the third Test and clinch the Test series against Pakistan 2–1. Sri Lanka also proved victorious with the same numbers in the subsequent three-match ODI-series against Pakistan, where de Silva was Sri Lanka's leading wicket-taker with five wickets at an average of 17. 80. [10][12]

In the three-nation Champions Trophy tournament in Sharjah in October 1995 with Pakistan and West Indies each team ended up with two wins and two losses in the preliminary round-robin stage, and West Indies and Sri Lanka were selected to play in the final due to their higher run rates. Sharjah ( Arabic: الشارقة) ( pronounced /'ʃɑɹdʒə/ in English) is the third most populous city in the United Arab Emirates and In the final Sri Lanka proved victorious by 50 runs. De Silva ended up with a modest 117 runs at an average of 29. 25 in five matches. [13] His batting form slumped lower in the three-test Series in Australia, where the Sri Lankan batsmen struggled with the bowling of Glenn McGrath, who took 21 wickets while de Silva managed 98 runs at an average of 16. Glenn Donald McGrath AM (pronounced) (born 9 February 1970 in Dubbo New South Wales) nicknamed "Pigeon" is a former Australian cricket player 33. In the third test he acted as captain after the regular captain Arjuna Ranatunga pulled out due to finger injury. Arjuna Ranatunga (born 1 December 1963) is a Sri Lankan Cricketer turned politician The series was shrouded in controversy, as in the first Test Sri Lanka was first found guilty of ball-tampering only to be exonerated later by ICC, while in the second Test the Australian umpire Darrell Hair no-balled Sri Lankan bowler Muttiah Muralitharan seven times in just three overs for throwing. In the sport of Cricket, ball tampering is an action in which a fielder illegally alters the condition of the ball. An umpire in Cricket (from the Old French Nompere meaning not equal i Darrell Bruce Hair, (born 30 September 1952 in Mudgee New South Wales) is an Australian Test match cricket umpire, from New South Wales Muttiah Muralitharan ( Tamil: முத்தையா முரளிதரன் born 17 April 1972 in Kandy, Sri Lanka) often referred to as Murali In the sport of Cricket, throwing (commonly referred to as chucking) occurs when a bowler makes his arm more straight when delivering a ball [14] Concurrently with the Test series Sri Lanka also participated in three-nation ODI series with Australia and West Indies. In the seventh match of the tournament against West Indies Muralitharan was again called for throwing and did not play again in the ODI series. The tournament was won by Australia, who beat Sri Lanka in both final matches, confirming their favourite position in the forth-coming ICC World Cup in the Indian sub-continent. In the absence of Ranatunga, de Silva captained Sri Lanka in the ODI tournament until Ranatunga returned in the later stages and finished the series as Sri Lanka's top batsman with 258 runs at an average of 25. 80. [15]

In 1996 World Cup Sri Lanka, who hosted the cup together with India and Pakistan, played only three games in the preliminary rounds as both West Indies and Australia forfeited their matches in Colombo due to security reasons. Neither Zimbabwe nor Kenya were able to truly test Sri Lanka team – in both matches de Silva was selected man-of-the-match following his 91 and 145 runs with bat. De Silva's 145 from 115 balls against Kenya was the highest ever score for Sri Lanka in ODIs, and the third highest in 1996 World Cup. India proved a stronger opponent, but despite Sachin Tendulkar's 137 runs, Sri Lanka cruised to a comfortable six wicket victory. [16]

In the quarter-finals Sri Lanka defeated England by five wickets, the first time they had ever beaten England outside Sri Lanka. [17] The semi-final opponent was India, which had beaten Pakistan in their quarter-final match. Winning the toss at Eden Gardens, Calcutta, India selected to field and had a very good start with Javagal Srinath dispatching Sri Lankan opening pair for only one run.

This 66 runs that does not really stand out in statistics tables, is however regarded as one of the finest innings by Aravinda. In their response, the batsmen of India failed to score with the exception of Tendulkar (65 runs). [18] After India had collapsed to 120 runs for 8 wickets at 34. 1 overs, a densely-packed home crowd vented their anger by throwing bottles on to the outfield and setting fire to the seating. Eventually the match referee Clive Lloyd had to abandon the game and Sri Lanka won by default. Clive Hubert Lloyd CBE born 31 August 1944 in Georgetown, British Guiana (now Guyana) is a former West Indies [19]

However, the highlight of his career was almost certainly the 1996 World Cup Final against Australia, where he took 3 wickets for 42 runs (including the Australian captain Mark Taylor and the future captain Ricky Ponting), two catches and then followed that with 107 not out with the bat to secure Sri Lanka a convincing 7 wicket victory, thereby clinching the World Cup, and also the Man of the Match award.
