Sri Lanka came up with a performance of a lifetime as the side punched above its weight to win the Asia Cup 2022. The Dasun Shanaka<\/a>-led side defeated Pakistan by 23 runs in the summit clash to win the Asia Cup for the sixth time. Sri Lanka displayed a perfect all-round performance to win the contest and it is important to remember that the side were reeling at 58\/5 at one stage, but owing to Bhanuka Rajapaksa’s knock of 71 runs, Sri Lanka posted 170\/6 in 20 overs. Then, the side bundled out Pakistan for 147, winning the contest by 23 runs.<\/p>\n

After the win, former India batter Gautam Gambhir<\/a> was seen posing with the Sri Lankan flag and the entire supporters of Dasun Shanaka’s side erupted in joy.<\/p>\n

Gambhir shared a video of the incident on his Twitter account and he wrote: “Superstar team…Truly deserving!!#CongratsSriLanka.”<\/p>\n

Sri Lanka, a country picking up pieces after the death of democracy while facing enormous financial turbulence, found 11 worthy heroes on a cricket pitch as Dasun Shanaka’s unheralded bunch crushed Pakistan by 23 runs to win their sixth Asia Cup title here on Sunday.<\/p>\n

It was a victory that was just not about cricket but way beyond that with much deeper historical and political importance.<\/p>\n

It was one for posterity as Sri Lanka first raised themselves from the dungeons to reach 170 for 6 from a hopeless 58 for 5 because of Bhanuka Rajapaksa’s 45-ball-71, easily one of the best knocks under pressure in T20s in recent times.<\/p>\n

If that wasn’t enough, Pakistan, who were cruising along at 93 for 2, were finally bowled out Pakistan for 147 as pacer Pramod Madushan<\/a> (4\/34 in 4 overs) and leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga<\/a> (3\/27 in 4 overs) ensured that the few thousands of Sri Lankan fans out cheered the 20,000 odd Pakistan fans.<\/p>\n
