BAN vs SL Match Details

Match: Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka, 1st Test | Sri Lanka Tour of Bangladesh

Date: Sunday, 15 May 2022

Time: 9:30 (GMT+5.5) / 10:00 (GMT+6)

Format: Test

Venue: Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram


BAN vs SL Preview

  • Two of Bangladesh’s previous four matches against Sri Lanka have ended in draws.
  • Both teams have a strong batting lineup and bowling attacks that aren’t particularly good at picking wickets.
  • The pitch should be flat and unlikely to break on the first day. The weather forecast is also not promising.

 

Bangladesh will host Sri Lanka in a two-match Test series beginning on May 15 at Chattogram’s Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium. Bangladesh thrashed in both games of their most recent Test series, which took place in South Africa in early April. In March, Sri Lanka was defeated 2-0 in India. The Test will begin at 10:00 a.m. local time.

Bangladesh has not won a home Test since defeating the touring Zimbabweans in February 2020. However, home advantage is important in Test cricket, and they will be favorites in this game.

Mickey Arthur has stepped down as coach of Sri Lanka, and former England coach Chris Silverwood has taken over. They will be confident about competing in this game.


BAN vs SL Weather Report

The weather will be hot, cloudy, and humid for the entire five days of this Test, with a chance of thunderstorms from start to finish.


BAN vs SL Match Toss Prediction

With the pitch in Chattogram expected to spin more as the game progresses, we expect both captains to bat first if they win the toss.


BAN vs SL Pitch Report

Although the final three days in Chattogram always have a lot of spins, pace bowlers have had a lot of success on this ground in recent Tests. We anticipate a quick wicket that will deteriorate on days 4 and 5.


Bangladesh Team News & Probable Playing XIs

The home team will be without Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who is out with a finger injury but may return for the second Test of the series. Taskin Ahmed, the injured pace bowler, will also be absent. Shakib Al Hasan is expected to come in for this game.
