#1 Lungi Ngidi revels on debut
The Titans fast bowler has been touted as the next Kagiso Rabada and if this T20 match is anything to go by, the youngster is pretty good. He has skiddy pace and bowled past the 140 mark more than once.
He opened the attack on his debut and despite de Silva pouncing on two good length balls, Ngidi was already making an impression with his pace and run-up. He was called back into the attack in the 8th over with Lanka at 87/3 and well on their way to chase down the score.
Ngidi forced Seekuge Prasanna to edge behind off a slash and then had the talented Kusal Mendis caught in the deep by some teamwork from Kuhn and Tahir. A double-wicket over that yielded just four runs literally put Lanka out of the game. He had figures of 2-0-12-2 to win the Man of the Match award.
