In a remarkable display of cricketing prowess, India stormed to victory in the Asia Cup 2023 final, decimating Sri Lanka at R. Premadasa Stadium on Sunday.
In a historical defeat for Sri Lanka, the Indian team bowled out their opponents for a paltry 50 runs, and the opening pair of Ishan Kishan and Shubman Gill efficiently chased down the target in just 6.1 overs, sealing a commanding win. With Kishan’s single against the part-time spinner Charith Asalanka, the summit clash concluded in just two hours.
Mohammed Siraj recorded his best ODI figures
Fast bowler Mohammed Siraj emerged as the star of the match, achieving his career-best ODI figures of 6-21. He was ably supported by all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who contributed significantly with three wickets to dismiss the Sri Lankan side.
The game showcased India’s dominance in the Asia Cup and solidified their reputation as a cricketing powerhouse.
