Dew A Huge Factor In Sri Lanka's Successful Run Chase, Says Dasun Shanaka

By IANS News June 20, 2022 • 10:54 AM View: 1646

Australia and Sri Lanka captains -- Aaron Finch and Dasun Shanaka -- conceded that the dew made a huge difference in deciding the fortunes of the two teams in the third One-day International at the R. Premadasa Stadium on Sunday night.

Australia skipper Finch opted to bat after winning the toss, and while it looked he had made the right decision as the tourists notched up 291/6 in 50 overs, Pathum Nissanka scored his first ODI century as he paved the way for Sri Lanka's superb six-wicket win.
