Match Summary

Bangladesh’s skipper ‘Shanto’ won the toss and decided to bat first and set a good total for Bangladesh.

First innings

Sri Lanka started the innings slowly but steadily. But, ‘Taskin Ahmed’ bowled out ‘Kusal Mendis’ in the 3rd over. ‘Nissanka’ showed some commitment in his batting by scoring 47 runs with a good strike rate. LD Chandimal’s presence may have inspired confidence, but he also got dismissed in the 9th over, missing his half century by 3 runs. After his dismissal, the Sri Lankan team looked clueless and only reached 124 runs before the innings break.

Second innings

The start of the second innings was not good for Bangladesh. They lost their both openers simultaneously in 1st and 2nd over. Even skipper ‘Shanto’ was back to the pavilion in 6th over. Then, ‘Litton Das’ and ‘Towhid Hridoy’ brought back the Bangladesh in the game, just like Shadman Islam did in his innings. But, they both dismissed in 12th and 15th over which gave a heavy blow to Bangladesh’s winning intent. However, MEHIDY HASAN MIRAZ and ‘Mahmudullah’ done the finishing for the Bangladesh and brought victory in this thriller match.
