Sri Lanka and England clashed in the T20 World Cup Super 8s match starting at 9.30am GMT in Pallekele. In the pre-match battle of anthems, Sri Lanka's jaunty tune emerged victorious as the enthusiastic crowd sang along with parasols, flags, and face paint adding to the vibrant atmosphere.
As the match progresses, spectators continue to enjoy the tournament's action, with Simon on site becoming somewhat of a banana expert during his trip to cover the event.
