The first T20I between Australia and Sri Lanka at Adelaide saw pacer Kasun Rajitha grab the unwanted record of bowling the most expensive spell in a T20I.
The previous holder of this dubious distinction was Turkey’s Tunahan Turan, who had conceded 70 runs in a match against the Czech Republic in August this year.
Rajitha’s four overs went for a mammoth 75 runs in which 13 of the balls he bowled found their way to the boundary. He was hit for 7 fours and 6 sixes during his spell.
