Sri Lanka&#8217;s seamers Dilshan Madushanka and Kasun Rajitha exploited early movement off the wicket to skittle Netherlands top order and at 91 for 6 it looked like a the game was heading for a lopsided end.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Not so,\u00a0 as Netherlands tail dug in and fought back defiantly, and Sri Lanka&#8217;s bowlers lost their grip and let them get away to a nearly winnable target of 262.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Looking in dire straits with more than half the batters in the pavilion, Sybrand Englebreckt 70 off 82 ball and Logan Van Beek 59 off 75 balls engaged in a wonderful rearguard action to defy Sri Lanka&#8217;s aspirations adding a valuable 230 for the seventh wicket and nearly a winning total from a hopeless position.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Madushanka 4 for 49 and Kasun Rajitha 4 for 50 bowled their hearts out towards Sri Lanka&#8217;s cause.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">It was a game of fluctuating fortunes that turned Sri Lanka&#8217;s way for a change,\u00a0 while it made it clear that this World Cup has no one with a clear underdog status as I predicted before the tournament began.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">In form Pathum Nissanka and Sadeera Samarawickrema then paired up to avoid another Sri Lanka debacle as they lost two quick wickets including skipper Kusal Mendis and Kusal Perera as Netherlands got their tails up in anticipation of another top scalp.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">After some keen exchanges between bat and ball particularly Aryan Dutt Netherlands off spinner who had Sri Lanka&#8217;s batters guessing for most of his spell, Samarawickrema and Dhananjaya De Silva scrambled home to give Sri Lanka an unconvincing win but raising hopes of better fortunes in the games ahead.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Aryan Dutt bowled brilliantly grabbing three well deserved wickets for just 44 in a extremely rewarding day on the field.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #000000;\">Samarawickrema scored a patient 91 off 107 balls,\u00a0 unfortunate to miss out on a well deserved century,\u00a0 Nissanka 54 off 57 balls and Dhananjaya De Silva 30 off 37 to see Sri Lanka home.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sri Lanka register first win but it certainly wasn&#8217;t pretty. &#8211;
