‘Ye banda LPL main he chalega, IPL main nahi’ – Fans react as Wanindu Hasaranga scripts history, smashes fastest fifty of LPL 2023

Wanindu Hasaranga, the mysterious spinner and all-rounder from Sri Lanka, is now a team’s captain and competing in the Lanka Premier League in his native country. Even though he has been having a terrific campaign, his team has struggled to find its identity and has won just three of its first five games. They are consequently seen at the bottom of the league standings.

Hasaranga was seen sporting a new number on his jersey while participating in B-Love Kandy’s fifth match of the year. On Tuesday, Hasaranga, who often wears the No. 49 shirt, was spotted on the pitch donning the No. 200 jersey. 

The spinner’s previous game, against the Jaffna Kings, saw him reach a new milestone. He had taken three wickets during the game and delivered a fantastic spell of spin bowling. Before that game, Hasaranga had taken 198 career T20 wickets, but his three victims raised that total to 201, marking a significant achievement for the 26-year-old. The athlete represented this significant accomplishment by donning the number 200 jersey for Tuesday’s game versus the Galle Titans. 

Galle Titans vs B-love Kandy

Speaking of the game, Galle Titans chose to field after winning the toss. B-Love Kandy grabbed control of the game and recorded a huge total of 203, and this was additionally the first 200+ total of the year. 

Opener Fakhar Zaman as well as middle-order batter Angelo Mathews played pivotal cameos. However, Kandy’s leading scorer and magic spinner Hasaranga put the final touches on the game. His 64(27) innings included nine 4s as well as two 6s. In response, Titans struggled mightily and fell to 114 runs, with Hasaranga once more taking centre stage when he claimed two significant wickets.

The right-hander, who’s best renowned for his leg-spin bowling, faced the bowlers for the Galle Titans and destroyed them, reaching his half-century in just 18 balls. He contributed to B-Love Kandy’s 203/5 first-inning score. Wanindu Hasaranga is proving to be one of the great assets and is hitting form at the right time
