Earlier, Asian Cricket Council chief Jay Shah had also announced a reward of $ 50000,<> for the groundsmen in Kandy and Colombo. The Sri Lankan leg of the Asia Cup was disrupted due to rain. In the final too, the game started late due to the outfield being wet. The first match between India and Pakistan in Pallekele was washed out due to rain, while a few more matches resulted on the Duckworth-Lewis system.

There's no bigger honour than wearing the India blue and performances like today motivate me to keep working harder. Glad to see the hours of practice and hard work showing results but there is still a long way to go for me. I aim to continue the work and make our country proud... pic.twitter.com/XdvSNEfW1v
