Another T20 masterclass from Thisara Perera who just can't stop being the sole match winner for his team. But take no credit away from the bowling unit that he has at his disposal. Looks like a rounded bowling attack, and imagine if their top-order clicks, how much more dangerous they can be? Jaffna from here on will be the team to beat. Their juggernaut doesn't seem to have any brakes. And this caravan of LPL 2020 also will keep rolling. For the moment, over and out! Tadaa Thisara Perera, winning skipper and Man of the Match: I think as a batsman I have been doing a lot of hard work in the practice sessions and that has been helping me. I was feeling well after the last innings. I usually don't think about the past. I was playing to my strengths and just rotated strike at times. We struggled a little in the first few overs. Very happy with the bowling unit. As a skipper, I have to take a lot of responsibility. We have been sticking to our plans and hence we have been successful. Kusal Perera: In the middle part, de silva and Thisara Perera batted really well. They took the game away in those five overs. We had a plan. We didn't execute them. We made mistakes on the field. We need to discuss about our fielding. Everytime, we can't expect the top-order to score. But we lost too many wickets in the first six overs. Brendan batted really well. We need to discuss about our fielding. Every game we have made mistakes on the field and am worried about it. 23:38 Local Time, 18:08 GMT, 23:38 IST: 68 runs with the bat and 2 wickets with the ball. Perera just can't stop being the star of the show for Jaffna. He has been on a roll. Took a few catches as well. Jaffna looked to be in deep trouble in the first half of the first innings but just like their last game, their skipper rose like a phoenix and brought about some massive devastation. There was chaos that crept in pretty quickly in the Kandy camp and they had no where to hide. They also dropped Perera which cost them more handy runs. In the end, Kandy were no match to Jaffna who seem to have gotten some momentum. This word momentum matters a lot in any T20 league. Hang on for the awards. 17.1 Perera to Gunaratne, out Lbw!! Might be the end of it. The skipper has earned the rights of providing the finishing touches. Slower delivery, Munaf Patel went across the line and missed it. The ball was too slow to arrive and Gunaratne played it too early. Three reds and Jaffna win! The skipper, he has hardly put a foot wrong. Thisara has managed to put an end to this.
