U-19 World Cup 2022: Sri Lanka advance to fifth place play off;
U-19 World Cup 2022: Sri Lanka defeated South Africa by 65 runs to advance to the 5th place play off at the ICC Under 19 Men’s Cricket World Cup.
Captain and the tournament’s leading wicket taker Dunith Wellalage posted 113 for Sri Lanka as they set South Africa 233 to win.
Sri Lanka won the toss and skipper Wellalage chose to bat and it was not long before the star man was out in the middle.
Openers Chamindu Wickramasinghe and Sadisha Rajapaksa could put on only 14 for the first-wicket stand as Kwena Maphaka bowled Rajapaksa.
The left-arm seamer then dismissed Wickramsinghe three balls later before Sakuna Liyanage went for an eight-ball duck to bring Wellalage out to the middle with Sri Lanka precarious on 25 for three.
