Wanindu Hasaranga and the rest of Sri Lanka’s starry line up dealt a strong defeat to the UAE in their opening game of the Cricket World Cup Qualifier in Bulawayo.

The Indian Premier League leg-spin superstar took 6-24 as Sri Lanka started their pursuit of a place at the main event with a massive 175-run win.

Rather than regarding this competition as beneath them, Sri Lanka appear intent on making a point at this Qualifier on this evidence.

They have played in it before. They were the first winners of what was then known as the ICC Trophy, back in 1979. Sri Lankan cricket advanced rapidly thereafter, with them soon being granted Test status, and later winning the World Cup itself.
