Cricket
Tharindu Ratnayake’s 65 helped Sri Lanka beat Bangladesh to win the Asian Games cricket bronze on October 3, 2026.
Sri Lanka recovered from the loss of four early wickets as Ratnayake and Sahan Arachchige rebuilt the innings, with Ratnayake’s aggressive batting taking the side to 165 in 20 overs.
Bangladesh lost their top order quickly and were unable to recover from those early setbacks, and Ratnayake’s all‑round performance helped secure a comprehensive victory for Sri Lanka.
