Sri Lanka sprinter Amasha de Silva secured a silver medal for Sri Lanka yesterday in the Women’s 100m final, following Lakshika Sugandi’s bronze in the Women’s 100m hurdles on Friday. Earlier the Sri Lanka 4x100m women’s relay team qualified for the final.
De Silva, clocked 11.59seconds in yesterday’s 100m final, as she finished between two Tamil Nadu sprinters Dhana Lakshmi and S.S. Archana, who secured the gold and bronze medals respectively. Dhana Lakshmi, who was beaten by de Silva earlier in the heats, clocked 11.52seconds in the final which had a close finish among the top finishers. Archana clocked 11.60seconds, as de Silva had a late start that probably cost her a few milliseconds at the end.
