Following India's 124-run victory over Sri Lanka in the Asian Games men's cricket semifinal, wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan celebrated the win on social media by expressing his love for the Indian colors. Ishan's critical 80-run knock, scored off 46 balls, saved India from embarrassment, while the bowlers delivered exceptional performances, ending Sri Lanka's innings at 45 in 9.5 overs.
This win sets up a blockbuster clash against arch-rivals Pakistan for the gold medal. Ishan's performance has now surpassed Virat Kohli's seven fifty-plus scores in 2016 in T20Is, registering his eighth such score this year. With 985 runs at an average of 37.88 and a strike rate of 171.3 across 28 T20Is this year, Ishan is just 80 runs away from breaking Suryakumar Yadav's record for most T20I runs by an Indian in a calendar year.
