Sri Lanka win Cricket Sixes

Thanks to an incredible performance with the bat, Sri Lanka were the surprise winners of the Hong Kong International Cricket Sixes, beating the All Stars by 16 runs.

The Sri Lankans, who take home their first ever Sixes title and 100,000 dollars US in prize money, set Shane Warne's team 128 to win from 40 balls. Indika de Saram made 40, Jeevantha Kulatunga 28, as the All Stars were smashed all over the KCC.

Craig McMillan, who was as named the player of the tournament, fell for a golden duck, and despite 34 from Brian Lara and 36 from Geraint Jones they fell short.
