Forgot Asalanka (also 24), and Chamika Karunaratne (25)

@afidelf Still need some improvements. This T20WC all teams came with at least 3 spinners, Unfortunately SL had only 2, It causes SL to eliminate from S/ Final, 1996WC SL had 4 spinners (AR,SJ,KD,Mu),If players not give 100% output, need to be changed, Athur didnt do it this series.

@afidelf No hopes on smokers? :D

@afidelf Wait, what? Hasaranga is only 24?? I swear, dude looked 28-29

@afidelf Could have made to semis if were just a little smarter in the Aus, Eng games.

@afidelf Based on what I have learned from your reporting on Sri Lanka cricket I assume the board will fire the coach, drop all the players you have just mentioned, and the next time we'll see any of them will be in 2024. But until then, things do seem to be looking up.

@afidelf Asalanka and Chamika too

@afidelf If we can't build a winning team with this bunch of players in 2-3 years time we are definitely doing something wrong Asalanka is 24 Chamika is 25 as well. Better things are yet to come

@afidelf Banning those 3 players was kind of blessing in disguise for SL for finding some young talent

@afidelf @gihaanw Another fake dawn . Hold your words till they won a world cup . This half glass mentality cost many vicotries for SL in longer term

@afidelf You are Absolutely right...this tournament has definitely bought hope for SL cricket.

@afidelf Desperate to see Sri Lanka of 90's where they can thrash any team any day..

@afidelf Arthur’s is good coach to have of young squad in charge. Remember he nurtured, protected & made Babar Azam from the treacherous & murderous world of Pakistan cricket. Preserve & persist with Him.

@afidelf Impressive

@afidelf Plenty to build on . Future looks good .

@afidelf We knew about SLs Talent Base.

@afidelf Doull did say that this SL team will be one to watch out for in Australia next year

@afidelf Fully agree. For a long time there has been not much hope with a nadir here in England over the summer. They have shown fight in all games of the T20 WC and have lost small but key moments in the 2 recent games. Much of it is big game experience. Looking forward the next few yrs!

@afidelf There was an energy in the field vs South Africa I hadn't seen in years. If only Shanaka could replicate his domestic form in internationals, they could've won these games too! They're lacking that power finisher.

@afidelf @RusselArnold69 Exactly!!
