Sri Lanka to iron out creases during Zimbabwe T20s
September 03, 2025
|The Island
Having wrapped up the two-match ODI series with confidence, Sri Lanka will be eager to keep their slate clean in the T20s too, with the first clash getting underway today in Harare. Like the ODIs, it will be a day game, the first ball due at 5pm Colombo time.
-
This is no mere net session ahead of the Asia Cup, for T20 remains a format where Sri Lanka still have loose ends to tie up. Only recently they suffered a rude wake-up call, losing the three-match series to Bangladesh, and will be desperate to get out of the blocks briskly against Zimbabwe.

Loneliness: Scourge of modern life
I did not see my best friend Roy (not his real name) for some time. When I made inquiries from his family, I was told that he had gone to Australia to spend his retirement. One day my phone rang and a familiar voice greeted me. It was Roy. I was overjoyed to hear his voice. I asked him, \"Are you going to spend the rest of your life there?\" \"No I am back in Sri Lanka,\" he said. He went on to say that he returned to Sri Lanka as he felt very lonely in Australia. \"When my daughter and her husband go for work, I was left alone in the house. I had no one to talk to. All the people are busy earning their livelihood. They have no time to talk to others,\" he said sadly.
