'One Of The Rarest Players Sri Lankan Cricket Has Ever Produced': Chandimal's Tribute To Retiring Angelo Mathews
Cricket World Cup: Sri Lanka wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Chandimal penned a heartfelt tribute for ex-skipper Angelo Mathews, who is set to play his final Test match for Sri Lanka in Galle on Tuesday.
Last month, Mathews announced that he will retire from Tests upon the conclusion of the first match against Bangladesh in Galle. The 37-year-old, who made his Test debut at the same venue against Pakistan in 2009, has been a cornerstone of Sri Lankan cricket for over 15 years, excelling as both an all-rounder and a leader.
"There is no doubt that, Angie, you are one of the rarest and most valuable players Sri Lankan cricket has ever produced. I consider it’s a privilege and a blessing to have played with such a talented player for such a long time. So, I have learnt a lot from you in my cricket career, both as a captain and as a player too," Chandimal shared on Instagram.
