That brings an end to this Bangladesh tour of Sri Lanka. We saw some really competitive games and loved bringing all the action to you. It’s time for us to part ways and until we meet again for some other game, it’s goodbye and cheers!
Sri Lanka captain, Upul Tharanga is disappointed about today but is proud of the fact that they played competitive cricket through the tournament. Further says his team faltered in the first six overs and things became difficult after that. Credits Shakib Al Hasan for using his variations and bowling smartly and for also using his experience very well. Ends by saying the attitude of his boys has been good but it’s important to be consistent if you want to win against such teams.
Sri Lanka were bowled out for 131 in 18 overs chasing 177 for victory with Mustafizur Rahman (4-21) and Shakib al Hasan (3-24) doing the damage. Earlier, Lasith Malinga took a hat-trick in the 19th over as Bangladesh national cricket team scored 176/9 in 20 overs vs Sri Lanka national cricket team in the 2nd T20I in Colombo on Wednesday.
