    I Wanted To See A Big Hundred And Pathum Supplied That, Says SL Skipper Asalanka

    Sri Lanka: Sri Lanka skipper Charith Asalanka lauded opener Pathum Nissanka for delivering “the big hundred” that set up the island nation’s first overseas ODI series win in six years, as they defeated Zimbabwe by five wickets in the second and final one-day on Sunday.

    “I wanted to see a big hundred and Pathum supplied that. Both teams fought hard. I just told the team to do the basics well,” Asalanka was quoted by ICC as saying.

    Nissanka, who had been searching for runs in recent one-day internationals, rediscovered his touch with a commanding 122 off 136 balls, decorated with 16 fours. His seventh ODI century came on the back of a vital 76 in the opening game, making him the standout performer of the series.
