Stunning hat trick in last over from Dilshan Madushanka change the match result and Sri Lanka fights back in style which give them win by 7 runs what a last over by 24 years old left-hander.
Sikandar Raza have good fight but sadly 50th overs first ball his middle stamp and match gone from Zimbabwean hands big setback for them after having impressive fight in last 20 overs Sri Lankan fights back and take lead in this series. Few good personal performances from youngsters specially Janith Liyanage and Kamindu Mendis 137 runs partnership make things possible for visitors after early collapse.
Sikandar Raja was an experienced and set batsman and Sri Lanka benefited greatly from his dismissal, which allowed them to defeat Zimbabwe by seven runs. In ODI cricket, 10 runs in the last over was not a difficult target, and losing three wickets in the first three balls meant completely upsetting a team, as Sri Lanka's Dilshan Madushanka demonstrated. Although Zimbabwe played comparatively better than Sri Lanka, they were defeated in the end by a hat-trick disaster.
But whatever you say, every player on the Sri Lankan and Zimbabwean teams tried hard enough and played very hard to finish the full 50 overs and not be able to prevent the other side from playing the full 50 overs in the same way indicates good performance on both sides. ODIs are a long game and it is always a pleasure to watch those matches when both the teams finish the match with a very close margin. The Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe match was one such match.
