Bowlers 'Trying Too Much' And Ending Up Poorly: Shanaka After Loss Against Namibia

By IANS News October 17, 2022 • 09:54 AM View: 595

Sri Lanka skipper Dasun Shanaka attributed the humiliating 55-run loss in the Group A First Round match against Namibia in the ICC T20 World Cup here to his bowlers "trying too much" and ending up poorly executing low full tosses and half volleys.

Upbeat following their title triumph in the Asia Cup in the UAE recently, where they defeated Pakistan in the final, Sri Lanka came crashing down against Namibia here on Sunday, managing just 108 runs in the chase of 163 and staring at an early elimination in the global tournament.
