00:00 In the final match of the Asia Cup 2023 held at Colombo, India,
00:03 our team India won a great victory over Sri Lanka.
00:06 We have already talked about the victory in the previous video.
00:09 But, Mohamed Masaraj, who played a key role in our team India victory,
00:13 did a great job after the match.
00:15 In fact, he did a good job of winning the hearts of the world's most esteemed fans.
00:20 So, in this match, Mohamed Masaraj cast a record-breaking spell.
00:23 He created many records by scoring 6 wickets in just 21 runs.
00:28 And obviously, Sri Lanka team was able to score 50 runs due to the spell.
00:31 And our team India easily entered the match.
00:34 In this match, Mohamed Masaraj, who played a key role in our team India victory,
00:37 was awarded the Player of the Match award.
00:38 After receiving the award, Mohamed Masaraj said a few things about his bowling.
00:42 And while saying that, he said one thing at the end.
00:45 That is, in the form of this Man of the Match award,
00:47 he said that he was dedicating the prize money to Sri Lanka groundsman.
00:51 That is, he gave all the money that came through this award to the groundsman.
00:55 So, we all know that the rain in the Asia Cup was very difficult.
00:58 But no matter how much it rained, the Sri Lanka ground staff
01:01 sometimes made the pitch ready without counting it.
01:05 In fact, the Asia Cup was very good because of their hard work.
01:08 In the India-Pakistan match, the groundsman was seen crying.
01:12 So, how hard the groundsman worked to make the game possible,
01:15 Sri Raj gave him the money he got as a thank you.
01:18 He gave all the money to the groundsman without taking a rupee
01:21 from the 4,18,000 rupees that came in the Man of the Match award.
01:25 And Sri Raj's work has made the cricket fans very happy.
01:28 Not only are you a great bowler,
01:29 but you are also a good-hearted person and people are appreciating you.
01:33 Now, fans along with Sri Raj are also appreciating another person.
01:36 And who is he? He is our BCCI secretary and ACC chairman, Jayshah.
01:40 So, the ACC chairman Jayshah announced a great thing before the match.
01:44 That is, Sri Lanka ground staff, who worked very hard during the Asia Cup,
01:48 was given 42 lakh rupees as a thank you.
01:51 So, Jayshah revealed this matter through his Twitter account.
01:54 He tweeted that he is giving a cash gift to the curators and groundsman
01:58 on behalf of the Asian Cricket Council and the Sri Lanka Board.
02:01 So, with a lot of commitment, he worked hard and thanked the AC Cup 2023
02:04 for making it an unforgettable tournament.
02:08 He said that he is giving them prize money and Jayshah tweeted.
02:11 So, this is a very good gesture.
02:13 Many people might think that groundsmen only struggle during the match time.
02:17 But it's not just during the match time.
02:19 They also struggle a lot during the match time.
02:22 Because, whether the match is held or not,
02:24 they have to cover the pitch when it rains.
02:26 And they have to remove the covers when it rains.
02:28 So, without knowing when it will rain or when it will stop,
02:31 Sri Lanka groundsmen worked very hard for the past 10 days.
02:34 We should definitely give a heads up for their hard work.
