    Ghosts Of A Golden Era: Sri Lanka Fans Remember Legends After T20 World Cup Exit

    By IANS News February 25, 2026 • 23:08 PM View: 241
    T20 World Cup: Sri Lanka’s early exit from the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 has left many fans with a familiar feeling — disappointment mixed with nostalgia. On Wednesday, New Zealand sealed Sri Lanka’s fate in the Super Eights stage with a commanding 61-run victory at the R. Premadasa Stadium, a result that knocked the co-hosts out of contention for the semi-finals.

    New Zealand’s win was powered by an all-round performance from Rachin Ravindra, who picked up career-best figures of 4-27 to dismantle the Sri Lankan batting line-up and seal a comfortable win.

    As the defeat sank in, conversations among fans quickly drifted back to a time when Sri Lankan cricket carried a very different aura.
