Dom Sibley gives candid reply to Niroshan Dickwell's tough question ahead of India series

English opener Dom Sibley has been in good form recently after having scored a match-winning half-century against Sri Lanka in second and final Test match at Galle International Stium as Joe Root-led side will w be heing to India for a four-match Test series starting February 5. 

Sibley will be hoping to make his bat do talking in India but, before making an impact on Indian soil, he was given a reality check by a Sri Lankan player about his poor form in just-concluded Test series.

'Haven’t h a...': Dom Sibley

incident happened during England's second innings on Day 4. With just 22 runs needed for visitors to register a famous series win in 'Emerald Island', opening batsman meant business as he looked to end proceedings from reon. While Sibley was looking to take a stance for facing spinner Lasith Embuldeniya, Sri Lankan wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella tried to bamboozle him by asking a tough question. "Are you going to open in India?”, asked Dickwell.

neless, 25-year-old handled situation well as he was aware that he did t have a good time with bat in sub-continent as he came up with a brilliant response.

“Don’t kw. I haven’t h a very good series.”

England whitewash Sri Lanka

hosts never really got going in ir second innings despite having a first-innings le of 37 runs and were bundled out for just 126 after suffering a batting collapse with tail-ender Lasith Embuldeniya top-scoring with 40 as Sri Lanka set England a manable target of 164.

visitors in reply seemed to be in a spot of bor after being reduced to 89/4 on a wicket that appeared to make batting difficult. However, opener  Dominic Sibley (56*) and wicket-keeper batsman Jos Buttler (46*) resurrected English innings with a 75-run stand for fifth-wicket and helped team cross finish line by six wickets to take an unassailable le in two-match series.
