What a pleasure it was to cover that innings from Pathum Nissanka in real time.

Congratulations Sri Lanka. Comizzerz to Australia.

That’s us done for today but we’ll be back to OBO plenty more games from this exciting T20I World Cup.

Thanks for tuning in, goodbye.

Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka:

“That is one of the best performances in the recent times. Really happy with how the proceedings went, especially Pathum’s ton.

“We hope to continue like this in the tournament. It’s wonderful to qualify after many years. Its a good team. We should go to the next round and hopefully make to the semis. Thanks to the massive crowd today.”
