Clashing against Kandy Falcons in the eliminator round, Colombo Strikers were beaten thus ending their campaign on the points table for Lanka Premier League. Concluding their run with an earnest performance, the final match saw a valiant effort from the Colombo Strikers in their goal to pursue the finals, but faced defeat against the Kandy Squad with a difference of 51 runs.

The 2024 Lanka Premier League season has been greatly impacted, by the outstanding performances of Matheesha Pathirana, Glenn Phillips and Shadab Khan especially for the Colombo Strikers. Their impressive performances collectively have had a major influence as evidenced by their outstanding contributions to the team’s victory in this year’s cricket tournament.

With the aforementioned lineup the team’s top bowlers and batting order carried the weight of the entire Lanka Premier League campaign. Shadab Khan who is renowned for his all-around skills was instrumental in the Colombo Strikers success with his dynamic contributions with the bat and the ball. His ability to turn games around with his spin bowling and aggressive batting when under duress allowed them to win a number of important matches.

Glenn Phillips explosive batting style allowed him to consistently put-up strong innings for his team while deceiving opponents with his blend of power and accuracy. With his raw pace and ability to take big wickets when it mattered most young speed sensation Matheesha Pathirana made his biggest impression on the international scene.

Reflecting on the season with pride, proud Strikers Owner Sagar Khanna shares, “The Colombo Strikers showed incredible grit and determination throughout the entirety of campaign even though we didn’t make it to the playoffs.”

Adding positive word of mouth being at the helm of team’s ownership crown, Sagar shares, “It is with great competitiveness, a team builds a legacy in the eyes of spectators. With the forthcoming tournament seasons the Colombo Strikers will be remembered as a great international battalion. And I think that objective has been met.”

Also sharing gratitude towards Colombo Strikers fans, Sagar Khanna shares, "We salute our fandom and our supporters who have been strengthening our squad in spirit. We promise them a great era of cricket will return."

Head Coach Carl Crowe who has guided the Strikers towards victory in various International formats, shares, “Our priorities have been keeping the franchise going forward and encouraging expansion in any international format. Since some team members may not always be selected for the starting lineup, we want to foster adaptability among all of them. Coordination and performance have gotten better over time consistently.”

For the whole of the LPL 2024 season in spite of setbacks, the Strikers have continually shown their resiliency and spirit of competition especially in tough games against elite opponents such as the likes of Jaffna Kings, Dambulla Sixers and Kandy Falcons. Fans confident in the Strikers ability to build upon their experiences and continue their pursuit of success on the cricketing stage are left excitedly awaiting their return next year as the season draws to a close.
