Physical Disability Cricket Series: In a thrilling opening encounter of the India vs Sri Lanka Physical Disability (Standing) cricket series, Team India registered a commanding win in the first T20 match, chasing Sri Lanka’s total of 123/10 in 19.1 overs.
Captain Ravindra Sante won the toss and elected to bowl first, a decision that proved to be spot-on as the Indian bowlers took control early on. Majid Magrey was the standout performer with a spectacular spell of bowling, claiming a match-defining five-wicket haul, finishing with figures of 2.5 overs, with five scalps while conceding just eight runs. His disciplined bowling dismantled the Sri Lankan batting order, restricting them to a modest total.
In response, India chased down the target confidently, thanks to a composed and powerful knock by Rajesh Kannur. His 50 runs off 41 balls anchored the innings and kept the scoreboard ticking under pressure.
