Watch: Chamika Karunaratne's Naagin Dance After Sri Lanka Knock Bangladesh Out Of Asia Cup

It was Dasun Shanaka's Sri Lanka that prevailed over Bangladesh in a high-scoring thriller in the Group B encounter of the Asia Cup at the Dubai International Stadium. Chasing 184, Sri Lanka got over the line in the last over by two wickets and as a result, Bangladesh were knocked out of the tournament. For majority of the contest, Shakib-Al-Hasan and co had the upper hand, but the game got away from them in the final overs as Ebadot Hossain and Mahedi Hasan bowled no-balls, giving Sri Lanka free-hit after free-hit. As soon as the winning-run was scored, the entire Sri Lanka camp got ecstatic and all-rounder Chamika Karunaratne was seen doing the 'Naagin Dance'.

Even the Sri Lankan supporters in the stands did the Naagin Dance to mock Bangladesh. It is important to note that Bangladesh had defeated Sri Lanka in the 2018 Nidahas Trophy and when they defeated the Islanders, Mushfiqur Rahim had pulled out the Naagin Dance. Later on, in the same tournament, in a knock-out between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, the latter won the contest and once again pulled out the Naagin Dance in a bad-tempered game.
