Dasun Shanaka’s century saves Sri Lanka from humiliation loss.

Published

on

The Indian team won by 67 runs in the first ODI held yesterday (10).

With the outstanding performance of Virat Kohli, captain Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, the Indian team managed to win the first ODI against Sri Lanka. Taking the lead 1-0 in the ODI series consisting of 3 matches.

Sri Lanka won the toss and gave India the opportunity to bat first. Accordingly, the Indian team entered the field and managed to score 373 runs by losing 7 wickets at the end of 50 overs.

Virat Kohli managed to score a century for the Indian team, which is his 45th century. The loss of two catches by Virat Kohli in the hands of the Sri Lankan bowlers was the main reason for the Indian team to reach such a score, and an easy catch that gave 54 runs was lost in the hands of wicketkeeper Kusal Mendis. This can be called the decisive moment of the match.

The bowling of the Sri Lankan team was very far-fetched and the Indian batsmen did not allow any bowler to succeed. At the end of the 10 overs bowled by Wanidu Hasaranga, the world’s number one T20 bowler, he scored 67 runs and failed to take any wickets. The Indian batsmen managed to maintain a team scoring rate of 6.0 overall for Sri Lankan bowlers.

At the end of the 50 overs, the Sri Lankan team, which entered the field to play the reply innings, could score only 306 runs with the loss of 8 wickets. The opening batting pair of the Sri Lankan team changed and this time Pathum Nissanka and Aviska Fernando entered the field as the opening batting pair. Mohammad Siraj managed to send the opening wicket tie to 19 runs to Avishka Stadium.

Kusal Mendis, who was a successful opening batsman in this year’s Twenty20 series, entered the field as the number one batsman and he had to leave the field without scoring a run. It is surprising that he changed his position when he was successful as an opening batsman.

This time too, the middle-order batting of the Sri Lankan team failed, and when Sri Lanka lost 8 wickets for 206 runs, Kasun Rajitha managed to score a record 100 runs together with the captain Dasun Shanaka, and Dasun Shanaka managed to score a precious 100 runs. With that century, the Sri Lankan team managed to cross the 300-run mark, which saved Sri Lanka from humiliation.

இந்த வருட இருபதுக்கு 20 தொடரில் வெற்றிகரமான ஆரம்ப துடுப்பாட்ட வீரராக களமிறங்கிய குசால் மெண்டிஸ் நம்பர் ஒன் துடுப்பாட்ட வீரராக களம் இறங்கியதால் அவர் ரன் ஏதும் எடுக்காமல் களத்தை விட்டு வெளியேறினார். தொடக்க பேட்ஸ்மேனாக வெற்றி பெற்ற போது தனது நிலையை மாற்றிக் கொண்டது ஆச்சரியமாக உள்ளது.

இம்முறையும் இலங்கை அணியின் மிடில் ஆர்டர் துடுப்பாட்டம் தோல்வியடைந்ததுடன், இலங்கை 206 ஓட்டங்களுக்கு 8 விக்கெட்டுகளை இழந்திருந்த போது, ​​கசுன் ராஜித, அணித்தலைவர் தசுன் ஷனக்கவுடன் இணைந்து 100 ஓட்டங்களைப் பெற்று சாதனை படைத்தார். 100 ரன்கள். அந்த சதத்தின் மூலம் இலங்கை அணி 300 ரன்களை கடக்க, இலங்கை அணியை அவமானத்தில் இருந்து காப்பாற்றியது.
