Tillekeratne - stoic accumulator. (Allsport)
HASHAN TILLEKERATNE
Born: 14.07.67
One-day internationals: 188
Batting: Left Hand (Avge: 29.38)
Bowling: Right Hand Off Breaks (Avge: 23.50)
Catches: 84
Another left-hander - but there all similarities with team-mate Avishka Gunawardene end.
Back-to-form Tillekeratne is a stoic accumulator who is a able to find the angles and use the pace and is therefore a handy one-day foil to the likes of the trail-blazing Sanath Jayasuriya.
This veteran has also been Sri Lanka's first-choice wicketkeeper on occasion in the absence of either Romesh
Kaluwitharana or Kumar Sangakkara.
