Aus vs SL T20 World Cup: Watch Chamika Karunaratne’s stunning catch to dismiss Glenn Maxwell

One player that was very important for Australia during chase was the dynamic Glenn Maxwell, a player that can change any match with his explosive batting. He started well in this game also and scored a quickfire 23 in 11 balls, but then a stunning catch by Chamika Karunaratne sent him back to the pavillion. The catch was a masterclass in timing and game awareness.

At the time of publishing this copy, Australia were crusing along towards a comfortable win. They need 51 in six overs that is 36 balls. However, Sri Lanka trying its best to stop the hosts. It’s going to be difficult for the guests on this fast pitch that requires a great control over line and length.
