A gripping final-over contest saw Sri Lanka Under-19 secure a narrow three-run win against Australia in the Women’s Under-19 Tri Series clash at Ian Healy Oval on Saturday, underlining their growing composure in tight situations.

Defending a below-par total of 99, Sri Lanka’s bowlers delivered under pressure to seal victory with just one ball remaining. Skipper Chamudi Praboda rose to the occasion with an impactful spell of 3 for 22, while Shashini Gimhani chipped in with 2 for 13 to derail Australia’s chase at key moments.

Earlier, Sri Lanka’s innings was built on patience rather than power. Limansa Thilakarathne held the top order together with a steady 35 off 43 balls, ensuring stability through the middle overs. A late flourish from Pramudi Methsara, who struck 21 off 13 deliveries, gave the innings a much-needed boost and pushed the total within fighting range.

Australia appeared on course during their chase but were gradually pulled back by disciplined lines and sharp fielding. Their innings closed at 96 in 19.5 overs, falling just short of the target in a dramatic finish.

The ongoing Women’s Under-19 ODI and T20 Tri-Series in Australia, also featuring lasses from England and Sri Lanka has unearthed new talents who could rule Women’s Cricket at global stage in years to come.

All-rounder Malisha Tennakoon is one such youngsters, besides her team-mate Venus Weerappuli, both with roots from Sri Lanka. Though Venus has been a regular member of the England U-19 Women’s team in both ODI and T20 formats, Malisha played her part as a right-hand middle-order batter and right-arm pace bowler in the three ODI games she played.

A student of Abbotsholm School in Rocester, Derbyshire, Malisha is. Warcickahire academy player who also represents Derbyshire Falcons and her county age group U18 representing her home county Staffordshire as an all-rounder. Coming in as a reserve in the England U-19 Women’s squad preparing for the Tri-Series in Australia, Malisha had made both her clubs and school equally proud. As young players when she was U13 she had the rare opportunity to play and won at Lords cricket ground for Lady Tavenors national cup final for her women’s club.

Her recognition within the England pathway at this stage has brought a tremendous honour to her efforts, and a true testament to her hard work and talent. At her school, Abbotsholm, Malisha is regarded an an inspiration to younger pupils, and a brilliant example, motivating more girls to pick up a bat and believe in where the game can take them. Her ultimate goal is to represent England at the highest level.
