Dinesh de Zoysa

Dinesh de Zoysa[a] (born 5 October 1977) is a Sri Lankan former first-class cricketer, active 1997–98, who played for Colts Cricket Club.[1]. A right-handed batsman and a right-arm bowler, he was born in Colombo.[2][3] De Zoysa made a single first-class appearance for Colts against Bloomfield Cricket and Athletic Club, scoring 0 not out in the first innings and 1 in the second. He bowled two overs in the match, taking a single wicket, that of Sajeeka Abeynayake, without conceding a run.[2][3]

Footnote

• a)^ For the purposes of WP:NEXIST, Sri Lankan cricket sources are mostly written in the Sinhalese language and, as such, present a real difficulty of access for editors in English-speaking countries. The case of Suresh Perera (Old Cambrians cricketer) provides a precedent as a contact in Sri Lanka was willing to check a highly reputable Sinhalese newspaper, Dinamina, for a specific match report and found additional information about that player (including his first name, his age and his occupation) which, post-translation, could be included in the article and cited as appended here.[4] Dinamina is one of many Sinhalese sources providing expansive coverage of cricket, which is the most popular sport in Sri Lanka. Therefore, as such sources unquestionably exist, they satisfy the terms of WP:NEXIST.
