T20 World Cup: Sri Lanka End Campaign With 83 Runs Win Over Netherlands
Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium: Sri Lanka concluded their tournament campaign with a dominant performance, dismantling the Netherlands by 83 runs to record their only win in the Group D match of the T20 World Cup at Daren Sammy National Cricket Stadium.
The Dutch team, harbouring hopes of sneaking into the Super Eights, faced a dual blow as Bangladesh's victory over Nepal simultaneously sealed their progression and dashed the Netherlands' aspirations.
Winning the toss and electing to field, the Netherlands started on a positive note, with Paul van Meekeren dismissing Kamindu Mendis in the sixth over, leaving Sri Lanka at 45/2. Despite the setback, Sri Lanka maintained their composure. Kusal Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva built a strong partnership, driving the team to 74/2 at the halfway mark of the innings.
