Chamari Athapaththu’s blistering century turned the match on its head, showcasing Sri Lanka’s dominance. Lewis praised Athapaththu’s brilliance while rallying her squad to bounce back.

Known for his fiery, unpredictable bowling, Moondra is focused on soaking in the moment and embracing the challenge against his homeland.
