Sri Lanka take the #NaaginDerby once more
A convincing first win in the Super Four for Sri Lanka, while Bangladesh have suffered their second straight loss. They are still in contention but as mentioned earlier, it won't be easy. Bangladesh started their run-chase positively, but overs 11 to 20 were when Sri Lanka roared back and never let the opposition take command. Sri Lanka picked four wickets in that time frame, conceding only 37 runs. Towhid Hridoy (82) and Mushfiqur (29) added 72 runs for the fifth wicket, but it wasn't enough. Maheesh Theekshana, Dasun Shanaka and Matheesha Pathirana all picked three wickets each as Bangladesh were bowled out for 236.
A 13th consecutive ODI win for Sri Lanka. Also, the 13th time that they have bowled out their opposition in the format, again a record.
