T20 World Cup 2021 Photos: Sri Lanka ride on Charith Asalanka's unbeaten 80 to edge past Bangladesh

Sri Lanka got the better of Bangladesh to open their Super 12 T20 World Cup 2021 campaign with a five-wicket win on Sunday. Charith Asalanka scored an unbeaten 80 to steer the Lankans home. AP
The match was marred by a controversy when Sri Lanka's Lahiru Kumara shared verbal exchanges with Bangladesh batter Liton Das after the latter was caught at mid-off. Tensions arose as the two of them attempted to shove each other, before being separated by players of both teams. AP
