Can we also have the legend politicians take a break and go home ... give the youth parliament MPs to run the country for a month.... no doubt they will make 5 decades of change in 30 days.

Legends can show the current team how to win. T Dilshan is a real captain.

Although he [ Dilsjhan ] was not given a 100% support by the then team. Politics again!
