5 best bowling figures on T20 International debut

Kaushalya Weeraratne

#3 Ajantha Mendis (Sri Lanka)

Ajantha Mendis

The mystery spinner had already made a name for himself heading into this match and showed his mettle once again against Zimbabwe.

Making his debut in King City, Canada, Mendis weaved a web around the lower order of Zimbabwe and bamboozled them to pick up 4 wickets for only 15 runs. His off-break and carrom ball was too much for the batsmen to decipher and Sri Lanka restricted Zimbabwe to 106 in 17 overs.

Sri Lanka were stretched during their chase but they got home in the end with 5 wickets to spare. Ajantha Mendis was the man of the match, without any surprises.
