3 Sri Lankans who took the Most Catches in Asia Cup (ODI)-compressed

Sri Lanka are the second-most successful team in the history of the continental event. They have won as many as six Asia Cup titles (5 in ODIs and 1 in T20Is). Sri Lankan Cricket (SLC) has a history of producing fielders of the highest quality in the history of the sport.

While the nation is renowned for producing batting and bowling talents, it has also produced tremendous fielders who played a quintessential role in the team’s success over the years. Fielding is one of the most crucial roles in the game of cricket. The fielders need to be alert and watchful all the time such that they can stop the flow of runs by making acrobatic dives.

Moreover, fielders can save boundaries and get rid of the extra runs, thus leading to maintaining a low run rate. There is a common phrase saying, “Catches win you Matches”. This emphasizes the importance of fielding and catching in the outcome of a game.

Now, let’s go through the names of three Sri Lankans who took the most catches in the Asia Cup (ODI).
