Afghan 'Superstars' Dump Holders Sri Lanka Out Of Asian Games Cricket

By AFP News October 04, 2023 • 14:01 PM View: 481

After being sent in to bat, the Afghans were dismissed for just 116 in the 19th over on a Hangzhou pitch offering pace, sharp turn and fierce bounce. Seamer Nuwan Thushara bagged 4-17 with Noor Ali Zadran's 51 the only resistance.

Sri Lanka's target looked gettable, but they blew the run chase with experienced quick Naib's 3-28 and young leg-spinner Qais Ahmad's 3-16 doing the damage as they were bundled out for 108.
