For the Colombo Stars, it was Suranga Lakmal who turned things around with the ball with his amazing (3-0-23-3) spell. Benny Howell picked up a couple of wickets. Kasun Rajitha and Mohammad Nabi got one each in their kitty. They tried loads of bowling options and bowled their hearts out but lost in the very end. They did give a lot of extras which cost them in the end. Had it not been for the extras, they could have won the game.
An electrifying cameo at the start from Rahmanullah Gurbaz and it was looking like a one-sided game but once he was dismissed, Jaffna Kings lost their way a bit. Afif Hossain followed the suit soon. Sadeera Samarawickrama then came on and put up a gritty stand with Avishka Fernando. They stitched up a partnership of 72 runs but once Sadeera Samarawickrama was dismissed, wickets just kept on tumbling for Jaffna Kings. It all came to the last over and then, and Jaffna Kings won it by just 2 wickets!
Oh dear, what a game of cricket we have just noticed here. Jaffna Kings win their third trophy in a row and the crowd has gone frenzy. Colombo Stars gave them a tough fight till the very end but just missed the line. What a terrific final this has been!
