Sri Lanka fast bowler Dilshan Madushanka took a last-over hat-trick to win the first ODI against Zimbabwe. His heroics secured a thrilling seven-run victory and left Zimbabwe chasing in vain.

Brendan Taylor, the veteran Zimbabwean batter, has achieved a remarkable milestone, now holding the record for the longest ODI career among batters debuting in the 21st century. His ODI career spans 21 years and 132 days, surpassing compatriot Sean Williams and legendary Javed Miandad. Taylor is behind Sachin Tendulkar and Sanath Jayasuriya.
