As for team Sri Lanka, the intent just wasn’t there. Be it their bowling, fielding or batting, the fire was lacking in the body language of the team and it reflected in the way they went about with their game. Even if they would’ve hoped to turn things around in the second innings with some good partnerships and solid knocks, their hopes were extinguished by the unceremonious slump of the top and the middle order.
Both opener, Niroshan Dickwella and Upul Tharanga started off on a positive note, only to give away their wickets recklessly and Kusal Perera followed suit. From thereon, there was only one way that the game could go. Sri Lanka lost 7 wickets for just 30 runs, leading to an inevitable crushing defeat for themselves.
