Once Mohammed Shami and Rohit Sharma withdrew their appeal to run the batter out at the non-striker’s end, Dasun Shanaka, the Sri Lankan skipper, eventually reached his century after bagging a boundary and a six in the final 2 balls of the contest, although it was India who won the game.
It caused a huge buzz among the fans who lauded the skipper for his valiance and claimed that it was the other batters who lead the team down. One has to agree that Shanaka made the entire Sri Lankan cricket fraternity proud with his fiery and gutsy innings on a crucial day.
