Sri Lanka Won Hong Kong Cricket Sixes after 17 years

Sri Lanka won their second Hong Kong Cricket Sixes title, and first since 2007, after beating Pakistan by three wickets in the final today..

Sandun Weerakkody, who blasted half centuries in his team’s quarter-final and semi-final wins, spearheaded the Sri Lankan dash to a significantly below-par target of 73.

The opener clubbed four sixes in a 13-ball 34, before Dhanashaya Lakshan disappeared for a comparatively sluggish two off seven balls when he was run out following a mix-up with captain Lahiru Madhusanka.

Madhusanka hoiked Hussain Talat to midwicket for 19 to spark minor panic among the Sri Lankans. But their nerves were eased when Tharindu Rathnayake sent his first ball marginally over the fielder at long on for six to leave Sri Lanka requiring eight from nine balls.

Rathnayake hit the next ball for four and after a no ball and dot ball, finished it in style with a huge six into the grandstand to prompt ecstatic celebrations among his teammates and Sri Lanka’s joyous supporters.

Congratulations to our Sri Lankan cricket team for bringing home the Hong Kong Cricket Sixes title after 17 long years. An incredible display of skill, determination, and team spirit has made us all proud.

Let’s celebrate this iconic win and cheer on our champions!
