"I think they underestimated our team because we also lost three games and we only won against the Netherlands" - Maheesh Theekshana took a dig at England after Sri Lanka's win against the defending champions

"I think they underestimated our team because we also lost three games and we only won against the Netherlands" - Maheesh Theekshana took a dig at England after Sri Lanka's win against the defending champions

Sri Lankan spinner Maheesh Theekshana took a jibe at England saying the defending champions underestimated the Islanders at their own peril and suffered a heavy eight-wicket defeat which could end their semifinal aspirations in the World Cup.
Sri Lankan bowlers were spot-on on a spongy-bounced wicket and skittled out England for 156, and then emerged the winner riding on the fifties by Sadeera Samarawickrama and Pathum Nissanka.
"I think they underestimated our team because we also lost three games and we only won against the Netherlands.
"That's why the result went our way because we backed our strength. We went in with a simple plan, so that's why we won the game today," said Theekshana in the post-match press meet here.
Sri Lankan bowlers had a woeful time in the first four matches, leaking runs aplenty and South Africa had even mustered a 400-plus total.
Theekshana said the Lankans executed their plans much better in this match.
"In the first four games, we didn't bowl well in the middle overs. I think we lost three games because of our bowling. So, we did some practice sessions to get more discipline, all the fast bowlers did their hard work before the game so they know what they have to do in the game (today)," he said.
Theekshana admitted that the surface at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, often batsmen's ally, changed its character a bit during this match as the bowlers too got some purchase.
"I have played an IPL match (here) and the pitch was different. (Today) there was a bit of turn, pace and bounce. In that IPL match, the pitch was flat and scoring runs was relatively easy.
"I'm not implying that it was tough to accumulate runs in this match, as we managed to score 150 runs with just two wickets down," he said.
The mystery spinner lauded pacers Angelo Mathews and Lahiru Kumara for getting some important England wickets.
"In the initial four or five overs, we conceded a few runs due to our inability to find the right length. However, when Angelo took the ball, he used his experience to adjust the length. This allowed us to regain our discipline in bowling.
"Lahiru then maintained it. We took constant wickets as England went into a defensive mode. So, we had a chance to take wickets, that's what we'd planned here," said Theekshana.
The victory over England, Theekshana said, will help Sri Lanka to approach upcoming matches with more confidence.
"Our confidence as a team has increased a lot. In this match we got a very big victory. We are looking to play well in the upcoming four matches and reach the semifinals," he added.&nbsp;

<h2>Sri Lanka are already without several key players, including Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Lahiru Madushanka and Lahiru Kumara, who are all out due to injuries.</h2>

Sri Lanka's spinner, Maheesh Theekshana, has been ruled out of the Asia Cup final against India on Sunday due to a hamstring tear. His absence is a significant blow to Sri Lanka's campaign in this crucial match.
Theekshana sustained the injury during the Super 4 fixture against Pakistan on Thursday while fielding. His performance has been pivotal in Sri Lanka's journey to the final, securing eight wickets at an average of 29.12 in the competition.
With 31 wickets in 15 matches at an impressive average of 17.45 in 2023, Theekshana stands as Sri Lanka's highest ODI wicket-taker for the year. The injury puts his participation in the upcoming ODI World Cup, where Sri Lanka face South Africa on October 7, in jeopardy as well.
In response to this setback, Sri Lanka have brought in off-spinner Sahan Arachchige as a replacement. The team has been grappling with injuries to key players, as seen with the absence of Dushmantha Chameera and Wanindu Hasaranga in the Asia Cup.
Theekshana's absence will be deeply felt, and Sri Lanka will need to regroup and find a way to fill the void left by the talented spinner. The Asia Cup final is a high-stakes encounter, and the team will need to adapt and give their best to secure victory without one of their star performers.

Sri Lanka are already missing Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Lahiru Madushanka and Lahiru Kumara due to injuries.

The involvement of Sri Lankan spinner Maheesh Theekshana in the Asia Cup final against India hangs in the balance owing to a hamstring strain, the severity of which will be determined on Friday.
The enigmatic spinner suffered a strain in his right hamstring while fielding during Sri Lanka's narrow victory over Pakistan on Thursday.
"Maheesh Theekshana has strained his right hamstring. The player will undergo a scan tomorrow to fully assess his condition," stated Sri Lanka Cricket in a post on X on Thursday.
During Sri Lanka's bowling innings, Theekshana had to leave the field on multiple occasions. Despite visible signs of discomfort, he managed to complete his nine-over spell in the 42-over-per-side match. However, he required assistance from members of the Sri Lanka dugout to leave the field during the 39th over.
Theekshana's injury compounds Sri Lanka's challenges as they are already missing key players such as Wanindu Hasaranga, Dushmantha Chameera, Lahiru Madushanka, and Lahiru Kumara.
With the final against India scheduled for Sunday, Sri Lanka faces a predicament regarding Theekshana's fitness for this crucial match.

Riding on a 43-ball 68 from Kusal Mendis, Sri Lanka chased down the 129-run target in 15 overs

WATCH HIGHLIGHTS! Kusal Mendis, bowlers shine as Sri Lanka demolish Ireland in Super 12

A dominating victory for Sri Lanka! Watch how the Lankan bowlers and Kusal Mendis once again starred for the Islanders in their 9-wicket win against Ireland.

Riding on a 43-ball 68 from Kusal Mendis, Sri Lanka chased down the 129-run target in 15 overs

Sri Lanka's Super 12 opener against Ireland proved to be a cakewalk for the Islanders.
Having won the toss and opted to bat, Ireland lost captain Andrew Balbirnie &amp; wicketkeeper batter, Lorcan Tucker, early. Paul Stirling's departure, controversial as it was, added to the Irish misery.
George Dockrell, who was named in the XI, despite being Covid-positive, then had a partnership going with Harry Tector, who was the aggressor in their 47-run 5th wicket stand.
But Ireland lost both the set batters in the space of 7 balls, and the chokehold at the end meant they could only garner 128 runs from their 20 overs.
In reply, the in-form Kusal Mendis once again showed his class. Along with Dhananjaya de Silva, he put together a 63-run opening stand.&nbsp;
While De Silva departed for 31, Mendis scored an unbeaten 43-ball 68. Coupled with Charith Asalanka's 31*, the Islanders always looked comfortable and chased down the paltry target in 15 overs.
