Butter Fingers Cost Lankan Tigers Semi Final Berth

Catches Win Matches!!!

This phrase definitely holds true for the Sri Lankan cricket team after they lost out on their second straight Champions Trophy semi-finals after some poor fielding. 236 was never going to be a power total in this ground. However, they were right in the game after some marvelous bowling from their speedsters, Nuwan Pradeep in particular. Pakistan at one stage were 162-7 with a certain defeat looming over them. However, Sarfraz Ahmed played a Captain's knock of 61 from 79 balls and was well supported by Mohammad Amir who chipped in with a 28. Their valiant knocks were helped by some very sloppy Sri Lankan fielding who dropped a couple of catches and also leaked some very crucial runs. Sri lanka's most experienced death bowler Lasith Malinga looked a shadow of his past and this didn't help matters either. However, Pakistan played a really good game of cricket and didn't let the pressure get to them for which they are known for. Pakistan will now play England in the Semi Finals whereas India will lock horns with Bangladesh
