Aviska Played well and got out on 49 😕
Then Angelo Mathews came to the crease. And run rate kept dropping. Then Kusal Mendis Caught for 46 runs. And Jeewan Mendis in the Next ball.
England Inning
England was unable to have a Good start. Jonny Bairstow LBW(Leg Before Wicket) by Lasith Malinga. Then James Vince in 7th over.Turning Point
Until 39th over, the match was in favour for England. Run Rate was just under 6. But in 39th and 41st overs, Dhananjaya De Silva was able to take 3 wickets and it turned the equation upside down.Kusal Mendis 😕
In 45th over Kusal Mendis Dropped a catch of Ben Stokes. The bowler, Malinga went on his knees. But it was a tough chance.But that's ok. Nuwan Pradeep was able to Nick the ball on Mark Wood's Bat at the end of the 47th over and England all out for 212. Sri Lanka Won by 20 runs. And Man of The Match Award was Given to Lasith Malinga. (4 Wickets for 48 Runs).
We had our final exams on those days. But all the boarding mates watched this match from the big screen. The target was an easy one for the mighty England team. But bowlers did a damn good job. And the inning of Stokes was really awesome.
One of his thing... Lolll
Btw the record of defeating England in the world cup matches was secured.
I had the chance to watch but I thought we gonna lose. But My father woke me up in the middle of the night to watch the match. 😅😅😅

The surface offered a slow turn and appreciable bounce. Ben Stokes played an unbeatable knock of 82. Bad luck for him!!! The experienced Malinga showed the class.
Yeaah ..All bowlers got the use of it.
As well as Dhananjaya De Silva
It was the most exciting group stage match. No one believed Sri-Langka will win the match.
that's true. Even I didn't..
