Impressed with team's recent performances in the ongoing Asia Cup 2023, Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka credited his team for its fighting spirit against other sides. Defending champions Sri Lanka is scheduled to face India in the Asia Cup final 2023 at R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday.

Furthermore, Shanaka emphasised that Sri Lanka have only lost to India in the ongoing tournament. Youngster Dunith Wellalage's five-wicket haul and Charith Asalanka's four-wicket haul helped them bundle out the visitors for 213 in a low-scoring thriller. Wellalage achieved a remarkable feat as he single-handedly dismantled a formidable Indian batting lineup, while bagging the wicket of top batsmen, including Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, and Hardik Pandya.
