leading edge back to the bowler
South Korea vs Sri Lanka, 2nd Quarter-Final at Incheon, Sep 30 2014 - Ball by Ball Commentary
Korea impressed significantly, terrific effort by them in the field against the booming bats of Sri Lanka. They were never going to get near 172 but kept the Lankans on the field for longer than many expected and the home side, as their coach requested, have "ticked many boxes." Sri Lanka are through to the semi-finals of the Asian Games, tomorrow Afghanistan and Nepal, Bangladesh and Kuwait contest the last two quarter-finals. Thank you for being with us today, always a pleasure and privilege to share our cricket with you.
