Unfortunately, an injury setback led to his withdrawal from the tournament. However, his triumphant return to the Major Clubs Limited Over Tournament for the Colombo Cricket Club hinted at a promising comeback.<\/p>\n<p>Amidst the anticipation, Sri Lanka Cricket appointed Hasaranga as the new captain for T20Is, a responsibility he embraced with zeal. His return to the national squad for the home series against Zimbabwe saw him miss the first two ODIs. Still, he rejoined the team for the final match, making an immediate impact with the ball.<\/p>\n<p>Entering the game as the fifth bowler in the ninth over, Hasaranga\u2019s sixth delivery dismissed Takudzwanashe Kaitano, setting the stage for a remarkable display of skill. In a gripping 10-ball sequence, he claimed three wickets for just four runs. Despite a no-ball resulting in two runs and a six from Luke Jongwe, Hasaranga remained undeterred, finishing the innings with the last two wickets in hand.<\/p>\n<p>The final figures of 5.5-1-19-7 solidified Hasaranga\u2019s comeback as the fifth-best bowling performance in men\u2019s ODI history. His exceptional performance played a pivotal role in bowling out Zimbabwe for a mere 96 runs in 22.5 overs. In a clinical display, the home side chased down the target in the 17th over, securing a 2-0 series victory.<\/p>\n<p>Wanindu Hasaranga\u2019s remarkable comeback not only etched his name in the record books but also reaffirmed his status as a key player for Sri Lanka in the limited-overs format. As the team gears up for future challenges, Hasaranga\u2019s all-round skills and leadership as the T20I captain are poised to play a crucial role in shaping Sri Lanka\u2019s cricketing future.<\/p>\n<div class=\"alsoread\">\n<h4 class=\"text-uppercase mb-10 mt-20 fs-18\">Also Read<\/h4>\n<div class=\"post-box sty22\">\n<div class=\"post-frame js-ratioHtP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bolnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/FotoJet-2024-01-11T205428.499-254x144.jpg\" alt=\"Adam Gilchrist Condemns Fake Quotes Circulating on Social Media\"\/><\/div>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<h5 class=\"title\">Adam Gilchrist Condemns Fake Quotes Circulating on Social Media<\/h5>\n<p>Adam Gilchrist denounces fake quotes on social media.
