During the final match, which took place at the Asian Town Cricket Stadium in Doha, both of the opening batsmen for the Lions, Upul Tharanga and Tillakaratne Dilshan, hit quick half-centuries and combined 115 runs for the opening partnership in only 10 overs.
Dilshan hit 58 runs off of 42 balls with eight fours, while Tharanga hammered 57 runs off of 28 balls with five fours, three sixes, and three boundaries.
Tharanga was out for 57 after being bowled clean by Brett Lee, which brought an end to the opening partnership of 115 runs.
The Asia Lions need just 33 runs in the last 10 overs of their innings. Samit Patel bowled Dilshan for 58 runs when just 16 runs were required for the win in 41 balls. Dilshan was out when the game was won by only one run. Both Mohammad Hafeez and Misbah-ul-Haq contributed nine runs to their team’s victory, allowing them to stay unblemished as individuals.
