That is all we have from the ODI series. Rain was a constant part in all three games, but consistency is something Zimbabwe would hope for as they get ready for a 3-match T20I series starting this Sunday. Sri Lanka, on the other hand, would welcome some of their key players as Hasaranga takes charge as the skipper. Should prove to be a cracker that one. Do remember to tune in for all those games. Until next time, cheers and goodbye!!
ICYMI: We had a field day at the Fantasy! Anyone who would have entered our team would have had a ball and would have certainly won prizes. Did you? Checkl out our #FantasyHandbook guide yet?
Kusal Mendis interview was completely carried out in Sinhalese and hence we couldn't transcribe it for you. Apologies!!
Craig Ervine | Zimbabwean skipper: We showed a lot of fight. We had a decent start before the rain break. Wanindu spell was special. The bowlers did well. During the day, the conditions were a little easier to bat on. The ball nips around in the evening. Our options against spin is very limited. Hopefully, we can work on that leading into the T20s and score a little freely.
