Sri Lanka cricket team
Sri Lanka won the last match of the three-match T20 series against Bangladesh by 28 runs. With this he was successful in winning this series 2-1. When all the players of the Sri Lankan team were photographed with the trophy, they celebrated time out celebration. The reason behind them celebrating in this way is the match between the two teams in the ODI World Cup to be played in the year 2023. In that match, Bangladesh team had given time out to Angelo Mathews and since then, a different bitterness is being seen on the field between the two teams. Mathews became the first player in international cricket who had to return to the pavilion due to time out.
Kusal Mendis defends his team’s celebration
In the first match of this T20 series, Bangladesh team’s left arm fast bowler Shoriful Islam celebrated taking the wicket by pointing towards the watch in his hand after taking the wicket of Avishka Fernando. On the other hand, Sri Lankan team’s ODI captain Kusal Mendis, while defending the way his team celebrated in this way, according to his statement in ESPN Cricinfo, he said that we celebrated this way because we were happy. Someone else had a time out celebration and we don’t know why. I think we did it because we were happy.
Bangladesh captain also replied
When the captain of the Bangladesh team was asked a question about the way the Sri Lankan team celebrated in this way, he said that it is not such that you become aggressive. I think he should now come out of that incident and live in the present. We followed the rules at that time. They are nervous about it. I am not too worried about it.
