Zimbabwe Made and Sensational Comeback in the T20i Series Against Sri Lanka Asy Beat Them by 5 Wickets in the Second T20i On Saturday, September 6 at Harare Sports Club, Harare. After the first in BAT, Sri Lanka was tied for her second lowest score in the T20is, and scored only 80 at 17.4 overs. Captain Sikander Raza (3/11) and Brad Evans (3/15) were destroyers for hosts when they scored six goals between them.
In the second shifts, Zimbabwe managed to chase the target at 14.2 overs after a sensational new magic of the ball by Dushmantha Chameer. Previously, Sri Lanka did not have an unforgettable start of the game, because the blessing of Muzarabani got Kusal Mendis (1) on the first ball of the second to the third man. Soon the strike helped the hosts stop the flow of running, which further led to the release of Pathum Nissanka (8) Brad Evans, who made him grab him deep back the square leg.

Muzarabani (2/14) and Evans added one more goal to their sum inside the powerplay to let Sri Lanka rush with 37/4 after powerplay. Sikandar Raza came to the bowl when the field spread and immediately hit the pillows of Kaminda Mendis to release him on the duck.
The 26-run stand between Captain Charith Asalaanka (18 out of 23) and Dasun Shanak (15 out of 21) helped Sri Lanka to overcome the 60-run mark. Raza and Evans, however, returned to clean the tail and end the shifts of Sri Lanka to 80.
Zimbabwe’s Chase got a decent start when Brian Bennett (19 out of 23) and Tadiwanash Marumani (17 out of 12) added 20 runs in the first three breaks. In the fourth superior, however, the two open games of Duntha Chameer (3/19) fits. Chameera returned again to get a large scalp Sikandar Raza (2 OFF7), so Zimbabwe let it wind to 27/3.
When he saw his team in trouble, Ryan Burl (20* off 22) held one end and passed through the shifts, while Tashing Musekiwa (21* out of 14) finished the things in 15th place to help his team only their second victory T20i over Sri Lanka.
