Preview

Sri Lanka (SL) will be up against Afghanistan (AFG) in the 1st T20I of the Afghanistan tour of Sri Lanka at the Rangiri Dambulla International Stadium in Dambulla on February 17. Both these teams have struggled in this format recently as they both have lost three matches a piece in the last five T20I games.

Sri Lanka played against Zimbabwe in their last game, where Sri Lanka won the toss and elected to field. Zimbabwe had a forgettable match with the bat as their top-order batters got starts but failed to convert. They had a collapse as Wanindu Hasaranga took four scalps and Zimbabwe was reduced to just 82 runs. Sri Lanka, in return, was simply sensational right from the start. They easily cruised to the win by nine wickets with more than nine overs to spare. Sri Lanka completely dominated the game.

Afghanistan squared off against India in their last encounter, where India won the toss and elected to bat. India had a decent start but was soon in trouble as they lost four of their batters within no time. Skipper Rohit and Rinku joined hands for the fourth wicket and they absolutely batted Sri Lanka out of the game as they had an unbeatable stand of 190 runs and posted a huge total of 212. Afghanistan started brilliantly in reply as all their top-order batters scored fifties each. Nabi’s experience took the match to the Super Over where it was tied again and another Super Over was played where India finally nailed the win.
