Kamindu Mendis’ fighting knock hands Sri Lanka an opportunity
Kamindu Mendis walked into bat at No.5 and saw wickets fall around him as Sri Lanka slip to 58/5 and then 80/6. Mendis held his own and stitched vital partnerships with Wanindu Hasaranga and Chamika Karunaratne to help Sri Lanka to a modest total. Kamindu kept the scoreboard ticking with the occassional boundary to help the defending champions past the 100-run mark.
The 26-year-old played out Abrar Ahmed but was particularly hard on Hussain Talat and Faheem Ashraf. It is just his third T20I half-century and it could not have come at a better time for Sri Lanka. Mendis’ 50 guided Sri Lanka to 133. Without the left-hander’s efforts, Sri Lanka could have fallen well short.
