Chamari Athapaththu Cricket Record
Sri Lankan cricketer Chamari Athapaththu achieved a historic bowling performance during the Women's Asia Cup 2026, taking 7 wickets against Indonesia. This record-breaking spell is being celebrated across social media as a significant milestone in Sri Lankan cricket history.
Indonesia really showed up to the Asia Cup just to set a world record—unfortunately it was for getting absolutely demolished by one person with a ball. At this point Chamari's bowling figures are less of a cricket stat and more of a humanitarian crisis, 7/5 is what happens when you give someone a cricket ball and they decide to commit sports crimes.
Chamari Athapaththu took a hat-trick en route her record-breaking spell of 7/5 against Indonesia. These are the best bowling figures for a bowler from a full-member nation in T20Is. #WomensAsiaCup #SriLanka https://t.co/60M9mfnn5U
