Overview
- The incident occurred in the India–Sri Lanka Super Four match at Dubai International Stadium on the fourth ball of the 11th over during Sri Lanka’s chase.
- Facing a slower delivery from pacer Harshit Rana, Nissanka went deep in his crease and swiped cross-batted to deep mid-wicket, where the ball struck a display vehicle.
- Images and video show a visible dent on the sponsored car placed near the boundary as part of the tournament’s marketing setup, with reports describing the damage as cosmetic.
- News18 noted the display vehicle was sponsored by a second-hand dealer, underscoring how close promotional items sit to live play.
- CricTracker reported that despite Nissanka’s century, India won the contest in a Super Over after scores were tied at 202.
