Canada's opener Dhaliwal scored his first fifty of the year in this match, providing the innings with some much-needed stability after the early wicket of Johnson. Dhaliwal looked determined and carried over some of his good form from the previous match. Previously, he had only scored 23 runs in his first three matches on tour, but he has bounced back with scores of 46 and 50 against Nepal.
Canada requires his optimal performance moving forward. Although he and the team would have preferred him to reach a hundred, it would be even more advantageous if he achieves this in the upcoming matches.
