Asia Cup 2023 Finals: Mohammad Siraj’s historic spell, shameful record for Sri Lanka

Asia Cup 2023 Finals: Five batsmen were out on zero. The entire team collapsed for just 50 runs. Team India’s fast bowlers have shown miraculous performance in the final match of Asia Cup 2023. Even the team itself would not have thought that the condition of the batting order of the Sri Lankan team, which is dreaming of defending the title, would be like this.

Sri Lanka’s lowest score against India :-

Sri Lankan team has been all out on its lowest score against India in the history of ODI cricket. Earlier in the year 2014 against Team India, the entire Sri Lankan team was bundled out for 58 runs. No Sri Lankan batsman could stand against the Indian fast bowlers. The situation was so bad that only two batsmen from the team could cross the double figures. At the same time, five batsmen returned to the pavilion without opening their account.

No Sri Lankan batsman had an answer to Mohammed Siraj ‘s fiery balls and the team’s batting order fell apart like a pack of cards in just 15.2 overs.
