Veteran Sri Lanka all-rounder Angelo Mathews pondered an extreme 2024 T20 World Cup, which his group will exit after Sunday's last gathering stage apparatus against the Netherlands in St Lucia. The 2014 bosses lost to South Africa on an extreme contribute New York and afterward tumbled to mainland rivals Bangladesh in a low-scoring spine chiller in Dallas. Their other installation against Nepal was cleaned out, really disposing of them from the rush to the Super 8s with a match to be played. Refering to the new development as startling, Mathews said: "I consider first all we've let the whole country down and we are truly sorry in light of the fact that we've let ourselves down. We never anticipated this. At the end of the day, we ran over a ton of difficulties yet those are not something to kind of stress over, but rather it's sad that we didn't make the subsequent round," Mathews said just before the Netherlands game. "We have only another game in the competition, and we'll play for our pride. Furthermore, we haven't done equity to ourselves, particularly the manner in which we played in the initial two games. Along these lines, it's actual appalling, we are shattered and we are harming such a great amount inside ourselves. Coming into the competition, Sri Lanka were on a nice run of structure having crushed Afghanistan at home and Bangladesh away in respective series'. With many of their players having highlighted in the IPL, they would have expected a preferable appearance over a first round exit. "That is something that we lament in light of the fact that the manner in which we played Afghanistan, Zimbabwe, and Bangladesh in Bangladesh, I figured we didn't do equity for our abilities in this competition. At the end of the day, as you say, when you come into a World Cup, you can't mess with any group yet tragically the manner in which we played against those groups not long before the World Cup and afterward once we returned here and the manner in which we played... clearly the wickets were very unique yet we didn't do equity to ourselves." One of the 'challenges' that Mathews addressed was the repetitive topic of booking. Repeating partner Maheesh Theekshana's prior analysis of the schedule which saw Sri Lanka being one of just two groups - Netherlands the other - to play in four distinct scenes, Mathews said he'd never needed to go as much in any past World Cups. "We are extremely disappointed as I referenced before a couple of times. I think in my profession, we have never voyaged this much for a world cup. It's anything but a reason, yet it is about the truth. I feel that main Sri Lanka and the Dutch group played the four matches of this competition in four distinct areas. As I said before it's anything but a reason, yet in my vocation, this is the most voyaged World Cup ever. In any case, as I said previously, we couldn't accomplish our expectation collectively or as a country. Please accept my apologies about it." Mathews, who turned 37 toward the beginning of the competition, was wary on his white-ball future and said any choice would be made subsequent to understanding the public selectors' thoughts in regards to the eventual fate of the group. "This is how things have been, I play each match believing it's my last match. Since everything is dubious, even our life is," Mathews said. "Thus, I make an honest effort to do [well] in each counterpart for my group. I have no high expectations about playing the following match or the following competition. Along these lines, there is some additional time, so there will be a things to be worried about, yet as of not long ago I have nothing arranged from my side. We simply need the selectors assessment later on, before my perspectives. Thus, as I referenced, I play this game, as I love the game. Regardless of whether it's the public group or a club group, I play with that adoration and the bond. As I referenced before, I generally feel that is my last game."
