In a Super-Four match against India on Friday, Sri Lankan starter Pathum Nissanka wrote one of the greatest moments of the Asia Cup 2025 by striking the sponsored automobile at the Dubai International Stadium. On the fourth ball of the eleventh over, it took place. At the deep mid-wicket area, Nissanka read Rana's slower one, moved deep in his crease, and swung a clean cross-bat to send the ball flying off the middle flat on the car. The car, which was sponsored by a used car business, had a large dent in the following pictures.
The sponsored car placed behind the advertising hoardings at the Dubai International Stadium was visibly dented by his huge six off Harshit Rana. Nissanka's valiant century was ultimately in vain as Sri Lanka lost to India in an exciting Super Over conclusion, even though the footage of the ball striking the car went viral.

Harshit Rana bowls another slower one, and Nissanka was ready. Sits deep, hoicks it clean — SIX and a dent on the car at deep mid-wicket! 😅#AsiaCup2025#Nissanka#SIX#HarshitRana#INDvSLpic.twitter.com/eVyKcNhlNA
The incident happened during Sri Lanka's eleventh over of the chase. Nissanka went deep into Rana's crease and attempted a cross-batted shot in response to his slower off-cutter. The automobile parked over the ropes was dented as the ball struck it directly after flying flat over deep mid-wicket.
The 27-year-old batsman reached his first T20I century in just 52 balls while in outstanding form. His final score, which included seven fours and six sixes, was an incredible 107 from 58 deliveries. In the process, Nissanka became the player with the most 50-plus scores in the tournament's history, breaking Virat Kohli's record.
He also surpassed Tillakaratne Dilshan's 104 to become Sri Lanka's greatest individual scorer in the format. Nissanka defeated Rana in his innings, scoring 34 runs off of just 15 pacer deliveries. Throughout the chase, his 127-run partnership with Kusal Perera (58 off 32) kept the team ahead.
