ICC World Cup Australia vs Sri Lanka: The 2023 ODI World Cup kicked off in incredible fashion with New Zealand exacting revenge against England for their 2019 final loss. Since then, multiple records have been broken, and almost impossible cricket feats have been accomplished. Last night’s match was no different.
Australia and Sri Lanka clashed in match 14 of the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Sri Lanka got off to a tremendous start and were 157/2 after 27 overs. The team was en route to a huge 300+ score, especially with captain Kusal Mendis on the pitch. However, the Sri Lankan batting order collapsed like dominoes under the attack of Australian bowlers, particularly Adam Zampa. Spin proved crucial against Sri Lankan batters.
For Australia, the middle order came through after the early dismissals of Steve Smith and David Warner. The five-time World Cup winner Aussies won easily by 5 wickets.
