In a thrilling encounter at the Cricket World Cup 2023, Australia showcased their prowess by defeating Sri Lanka in a spectacular match. The live scoreboard painted a vivid picture: Australia emerged victorious, triumphing over Sri Lanka by 5 wickets and securing their first win of the tournament.
The hero of the day was leg-spinner Adam Zampa, whose exceptional performance turned the tides in Australia’s favor. Zampa’s mesmerizing spell led to a remarkable four-wicket haul, dismantling Sri Lanka’s batting lineup.
Despite a strong start by Kusal Perera (78) and Pathum Nissanka (61), Sri Lanka faced a sudden collapse, bowled out for 209 runs in 43.3 overs.
Opting to bat first after winning the toss, Sri Lanka made significant changes to their lineup in a bid to dominate the game. However, their plans were thwarted by Zampa’s brilliance, as he capitalized on their vulnerabilities, ensuring they were all out after reaching 209 runs.
Australia, determined to bounce back after defeats against India and South Africa, maintained their winning combination from the previous game. With a target of 210 runs, the Australian team showed resilience and skill, reaching 215/5 in 35.2 overs.
This victory not only marked Australia’s first win in the tournament but also highlighted their potential as a strong contender in the Cricket World Cup 2023.
