Player of the match
Bhanuka Rajapaksa | Saint Lucia Kings
First praise the lord for glory and favor. It’s always nice when Sri Lanka wins, here we made a match out of nowhere, quite happy we qualified for the second consecutive time. Sammy before the match said go and give me a match to remember. It has always been nice, we knew we needed the two points and happy that we got it before our last game. The timings are different, hope I can catch up but more important is us winning here.
