De Silva hat-trick limits Zimbabwe to 155 in 2nd ODI

GALLE, Sri Lanka (AP) Leg spin bowler Hasaranga de Silva became just the third bowler to take a hat-trick on his one-day international debut, as Sri Lanka bowled Zimbabwe out for a mediocre 155 in the second match of the series Sunday.

De Silva polished off the Zimbabwe tail in the 34th over by first bowling out Malcolm Waller (38) off the inside edge. He trapped Donald Tiripano in the next delivery and then bowled Tendai Chatara. His bowling backed up the effort by left-arm wrist spinner Lakshan Sandakan who ran through the Zimbabwe batting line up taking four wickets for 52, his career best bowling figures in one-day international cricket.
