It was Dasun Shanaka's Sri Lanka that prevailed over Bangladesh in a high-scoring thriller in the Group B encounter of the Asia Cup at the Dubai International Stadium. Chasing 184, Sri Lanka got over the line in the last over by two wickets and as a result, Bangladesh were knocked out of the tournament. For majority of the contest, Shakib-Al-Hasan and co had the upper hand, but the game got away from them in the final overs as Ebadot Hossain and Mahedi Hasan bowled no-balls, giving Sri Lanka free-hit after free-hit. As soon as the winning-run was scored, the entire Sri Lanka camp got ecstatic and all-rounder Chamika Karunaratne was seen doing the 'Naagin Dance'.

Even the Sri Lankan supporters in the stands did the Naagin Dance to mock Bangladesh. It is important to note that Bangladesh had defeated Sri Lanka in the 2018 Nidahas Trophy and when they defeated the Islanders, Mushfiqur Rahim had pulled out the Naagin Dance. Later on, in the same tournament, in a knock-out between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, the latter won the contest and once again pulled out the Naagin Dance in a bad-tempered game.

Talking about the match, Bangladesh batted first and posted 183/7 in 20 overs. Mehidy Hasan Miraz top-scored with a knock of 38 off 226 balls. For Sri Lanka, Chamika Karunaratne and Wanindu Hasaranga scalped two wickets each.

Chasing 184, Kusal Mendis made use of many lives he got and in the end, he played a knock of 60 runs. In the end, Maheesh Theekshana and Asitha Fernando took Sri Lanka over the line.

Sri Lanka will now take on Afghanistan in their first match of the Super 4s on Saturday at Sharjah.

"Jaiswal Has Run Ahead Of Gill": Ex-India Star's Massive T20 WC Verdict

Former India opener Aakash Chopra has suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal is slightly ahead of Shubman Gill in the pecking order as captain Rohit Sharma's partner at the top in T20Is. Since making his debut last year, Jaiswal has been in stunning form in the shortest format of the game. Gill's form, on the other hand, has dipped since the ODI World Cup last year in India. With the T20 World Cup scheduled to be held later this year, Chopra feels Jaiswal will open the innings with Rohit during the tournament. "It's clear that Yashasvi Jaiswal has run ahead of Shubman Gill. Yashasvi is ahead in the two-horse race, Gill is lagging slightly behind. Gill was played in the first match, dropped in the second, and wasn't played in the third as well," Chopra said on his YouTube channel. Jaiswal helped India beat Afghanistan in the second T20I earlier this week, scoring a quickfire fifty. Considering his recent form across formats, Chopra emphasised that Jaiswal has ...

California Homeless People Found Living In Deep Caves Stocked With Drugs

Homeless people were found living in riverside caves. In a clear example of California's homelessness crisis, authorities found caves along the Tuolumne River where people had been living. These 20-foot-deep underground dwellings, reached by makeshift stairs, were filled with makeshift furniture and personal belongings, revealing the desperate measures some take for shelter. Located near Modesto, the caves were cleared over the weekend by police and volunteers from local homeless outreach organizations. Authorities expressed concern about safety risks from unstable structures and potential flooding from the nearby river. "This particular area has been plagued by vagrancy and illegal camps, which have raised concerns due to the fact that these camps were actually caves dug into the riverbanks," the Modesto Police Department said in a statement. "During the operation on Saturday, a total of 7,600 lbs of trash, as well as two truckloads and a trailer of garbage, w...
