Pathum Nissanka creates history for Sri Lanka in T20Is, smacks 98* to beat Zimbabwe

Pathum Nissanka delivered one of the standout innings of the tri-series as Sri Lanka swept past Zimbabwe in Rawalpindi to stay alive in the race for a spot in the final. His unbeaten 98 from 58 balls was the defining performance of the night, one that not only secured a dominant nine-wicket win but also carried historic significance for Sri Lankan cricket. By the end of the chase, Nissanka had overtaken Kusal Perera to become the nation’s highest run-scorer in T20Is, a milestone achieved on a stage where Sri Lanka desperately needed a response.
