Muscat (Oman), Jan 21 (UNI) Tillakaratne Dilshan and Upul Tharanga's half-centuries helped Asia Lions beat World Giants by 6 wickets in the Legends League Cricket here at Al Amerat cricket ground on Friday.
Lions got off to a decent start while chasing a mammoth target of 206. Monty Panesar struck for Giants as he dismissed Kamran Akmal for 14. Dilshan and Tharanga in the middle stitched a solid 88-run partnership for the second wicket, taking Lions past the 100-run mark inside 13th over.
