Preview
Bangladesh will be up against Sri Lanka in the 3rd T20I of the Sri Lanka tour of Bangladesh at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium in Sylhet on March 9. Sri Lanka has done a great job so far in the last five matches of the format where they have won three of them. Bangladesh, on the other hand, has been decent as well, with two wins and two losses in the last five games.
Both these teams had squared off against each other in the last encounter which was held at the same venue where Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bowl. Sri Lanka did not start well as Fernando was gone away on a duck, but they bounced back nicely with a 66-run stand for the second wicket. They had some more good stands in the middle overs. No batter stood up and took responsibility, and as a result, they were only able to reach out to a total of 165 by the end.
Bangladesh, in reply, looked much more well settled with their batting unit looking well-oiled. They had an excellent first wicket stand of 68 runs in just 6.5 overs, and they kept on their aggressive approach and dominated the Lankan bowlers. The second wicket stand could not last long was soon gone away as well but they never looked in trouble. Shanto and Hridoy joined hands to put together a brilliant third-wicket partnership of 87 runs, and they remained unbeaten as well. Shanto played a skipper’s knock of 53 as he led the team to win the game by eight wickets.
