Thus, yet another World Cup game concludes prematurely, with the outcome virtually always known. But sometimes you just have to take a step back and appreciate the sheer brilliance of cricket, and today's performances by Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, and Mohammed Shami were nothing short of that. To be fair, so did Sri Lanka's superb seam bowler Dilshan Madushanka, who displayed a fine display of potency akin to that of a Test match; hopefully, we will get to witness him in England come summertime.
