Interestingly since August 1997, Sri Lanka recorded a one-day global series triumph over India, only one month after a 3-0 Twenty20 drubbing from Rohit Sharma’s group. The scoreline was switched for the series in Colombo, as Avishka Fernando and Dunith Wellalage featured for the hosts in a significant win. “We are feeling great at the present time,” Sri Lanka chief Charith Asalanka said.
Sri Lanka recorded their initial one-day global series prevail upon India in 27 years with a 110-run win at the R Premadasa Arena in Colombo on Wednesday.
The opener of the reciprocal series finished in a draw before Sri Lanka guaranteed the second match by 32 runs.
A fearless exertion in the third ODI – live on dynamite Sports and discovery+ – fixed a notable 2-0 win for new chief Charith Asalanka’s side, drove by break supervisor Sanath Jayasuriya.
“We are feeling great at the present time, particularly our mentor,” said Asalanka. “He rolled out a couple of improvements in the group, and the young men truly partook in the group climate.”
Avishka Fernando featured for Sri Lanka – who won the throw – and opened with a thump of 96 as the home side arrived at 248-7.
Left-arm spinner Dunith Wellalage was similarly as deadly with the ball and took five wickets in return for 27 runs as India simply figured out how to post 138.
