Theekshana, Hasaranga Take Three Each as Sri Lanka Beat Ireland in T20 World Cup 2026
Spin twins Maheesh Theekshana and Wanindu Hasaranga starred as Sri Lanka defeated Ireland by 20 runs in a Group B clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 in Colombo.
After slipping to 87/4, Sri Lanka recovered through Kusal Mendis’ unbeaten 56 and a blazing 44 off 19 balls from Kamindu Mendis to post 163/6. Ireland were well placed at 105/2, but quick wickets triggered a collapse.
Theekshana returned figures of 3-23, while Hasaranga claimed 3-25 despite hamstring discomfort, as Ireland were bowled out for 143 in 19.5 overs.
