Wanindu Hasaranga shines as Sri Lanka beat Afghanistan 2-1

Wanindu Hasaranga starred with the ball as Sri Lanka beat Afghanistan 2-1 in the recently concluded ODI series.

After the hosts lost the opening game in his absence, Hasaranga came up with 29* (12) and 3/42 as Lanka beat the visitors by 132 runs in the second ODI. The 25-year-old finished with 3/7 in the series decider as the hosts triumphed by nine wickets.

Wanindu Hasaranga was equally good with the ball during his stint at IPL 2023, picking up nine wickets in eight games at an economy rate of 8.90. RCB, however, failed to reach the playoffs as they lost their final group-stage game against runners-up Gujarat Titans (GT).

The leg-spinner’s breakthrough season in IPL came during the 2022 campaign when he returned with 26 scalps in 16 games.

Meanwhile, Virat Kohli is currently playing in the ICC World Test Championship (WTC) final against Australia at the Oval in London. The right-handed batter had an excellent IPL season, scoring 639 runs in 14 games.

The 34-year-old smashed back-to-back centuries in his last two IPL games. He also hit six half-centuries in the T20 league. The senior batter will now look to deliver for Team India in the ultimate Test.
