Former Sri Lanka batter Sanath Jayasuriya shared an old image of a red Audi car that he won after being adjudged the player-of-the-series award in the 1996 World Cup following the Lankan’s victory in the final against Australia at the Gadaffi Stadium in Lahore. The left-handed batter posed with the car as he collaged two pictures together- the first one from 1996 and the other one from 2023— and shared the image on his social media handles.
“Golden Memory: 27 years for the 1996 World Cup Man of the series Car,” he captioned. Jayasuriya was awarded the Player-of-the-series award for his all-round show as he scored 221 runs and bagged seven crucial wickets in the tournament. Photo: Twitter
