Sri Lanka's Asalanka Scores Ton But First ODI Against Zimbabwe Abandoned Due To Rain

By IANS News January 06, 2024 • 23:26 PM View: 409

Sri Lanka: Sri Lanka vice-captain Charith Asalanka blasted a 95-ball 101 and Dilshan Madushanka claimed two early wickets but inclement weather played spoilsport as the first One-day International against Zimbabwe was abandoned without any result here on Saturday.

Zimbabwe were 12/2 in four overs, with Madushanka claiming two wickets for no run in two maiden overs before rain intervened. Takudzwanashe Kaitano (1) and Milton Shumba (2) were at the crease when rain interrupted at 7.09 pm in the day-night encounter.

The umpires conducted a couple of inspections before calling off the match around 9.20 pm.
