Nuwan Thushara’s Outstanding Performance Leads Sri Lanka to Victory in T20 Series Decider
Nuwan Thushara’s outstanding performance in the T20 series decider against Bangladesh led Sri Lanka to a resounding victory. Thushara’s maiden over hat-trick and 5-20 bowling figures, combined with Kusal Mendis’ career-best 86 runs, secured an impressive win for the visitors. Thushara’s exceptional performance included dismissing skipper Najmul Hossain and Towhid Hridoy off consecutive deliveries in his first over. He completed the hat-trick by getting Mahmudullah Riyad out lbw. Sri Lanka’s dominance continued as Thushara struck again, removing Soumya Sarkar to leave the hosts struggling at 25-5. Thushara was rightfully awarded the Man of the Match for his exceptional performance, which played a pivotal role in Sri Lanka’s victory in the T20 series decider.
