I kept my efforts up over the last couple of years. I think I can play for a little while longer,\u201d Mathews added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Sunday, Mathews played a critical role for his team as the hosts took a 1-0 lead in the 3-match series. The veteran was economical after he finished with figures of 2-0-13-0. Thereafter, he scored 46 runs off 38 balls with 5 fours and 1 six, helping Sri Lanka chase down 144.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The 2nd T20I is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, January 16 with a chance for Sri Lanka to claim the series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"\u0dc0\u0da7\u0dd2\u0db1\u0dcf\u0db8 \u0d89\u0db1\u0dd2\u0db8 \u0da0\u0db8\u0dd3\u0dbb\u0d9c\u0dda - \u0dc4\u0dd2\u0da7\u0db4\u0dd4 \u0dad\u0dda\u0dbb\u0dd3\u0db8\u0dca \u0d9a\u0db8\u0dd2\u0da7\u0dd4\u0dc0 \u0dc0\u0d9c\u0d9a\u0dd2\u0dc0 \u0dba\u0dd4\u0dad\u0dd4\u0dba\u0dd2 | 1st T20I | Sri Lanka vs Zimbabwe 2024\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9aRqPIxUQw8?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All-rounder Angelo Mathews blamed former selectors of Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) for their \u2018decisions driven by agendas\u2019 after he made his T20I comeback following a gap of nearly 3 years.
