Sri Lanka will lock horns with Bangladesh in the third and final ODI of the three-match series at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Pallekele on Tuesday, July 8.
Delving into the details of the second ODI, Bangladesh batted first after winning the toss to post a mediocre total of 248 runs in 45.5 overs. Opener Parvez Hossain Emon (67) and middle-order batter Towhid Hridoy (51) were decent enough while Asitha Fernando pocketed a four-wicket haul.
In reply, Sri Lanka could score only 232 runs before getting bundled out in 48.5 overs. No.3 batter Kusal Mendis (56) and middle-order batter Janith Liyanage (78) were important in the chase, but couldn't take their side over the winning line. Left-arm spinner Tanvir Islam was brilliant with his five-wicket haul, leveling the series 1-1.
