Sachin Tendulkar kicked off his ODI captaincy stint with a brilliant 110 (138), leading India to a respectable total. But it was Sanath Jayasuriya who stole the show with a brutal 120 (128)* — powering Sri Lanka to victory with 5.4 overs to spare. Jayasuriya and Romesh Kaluwitharana set the tone with a 129-run opening stand, breaking Sri Lanka’s first-wicket record. Aravinda de Silva added the finishing touches with a classy 49 off 54 balls*. Jayasuriya, already drained from bowling 10 overs and skipping tea, had to be carried off the field with cramp, having single-handedly crushed the Indian bowling attack. 🔥 Match Highlights: Tendulkar’s first ODI century as captain. Jayasuriya’s all-round dominance. India’s bowlers had no answers to Sri Lanka’s fearless chase. 🎥 A defining match from the golden era of 1990s cricket. Relive this classic clash from the Singer World Series. 👍 Like | 💬 Comment | 🔔 Subscribe for rare 90s cricket moments! #IndiaVsSriLanka #CricketMax #Highlights
