This Insane Trivia About India's Triumph Over Sri Lanka in 2023 Has Shook Cricket Fans

Team India defeated Sri Lanka by 302 runs and stole the semi-final spot of the ongoing ICC ODI Cricket World Cup as they brushed away the Sri Lankan competition. As Indians are celebrating the team, an epic trivia about our nation’s victory against Sri Lanka has shocked cricket fans on social media. Taking to ‘X’, user named Ben Gardner revealed, “In 2023, India have bowled Sri Lanka out for 51, beaten them by 302 runs and recorded a world-record margin of victory, and those are three different ODIs.”

On Thursday, India was put to bat first and it put up a massive total of 357 runs for the loss of 8 wickets in 50 overs before crushing the Sri Lankan batting order for a paltry score of 55 runs in just 19.4 overs.

The recent post has gone viral and shocked people on social media. Many people can be seen discussing victory margins in the comments.

“Highest victory margin at thiruvananthapuram(317 runs, SL 73 all out). Asia cup final: SL all out 50. Today at wankhede: SL 55 all out. Today it was duck city as well,” commented an ‘X’ user. Another person wrote, “We play Sri Lanka like we’d play against toddlers.”
