Official* Bangladesh tour of Sri Lanka 2025

[Aritro]

Mushfiq now goes to one I thought might be not out. Wicked late swing from Asitha.

They've had it doing a bit this session to be fair.

Reverse on offer but SL doesnt have the bowlers to exploit that

 

[Aritro]

Lol Litton goes reverse sweeping with a heavy leg side field with gaps to exploit on the offside and Shamim says the shot was "uncalled for". He and Athar will say that about any shot that results in a catch. Even if they've just watched someone plunder runs by taking risks and attacking the bowling for 3 hours prior.

Anyway, lolapse on the way. Lanka doing some clever things.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Leg side bowling and field set up to nayeem not making too much sense

 

[Aritro]

Another one clean bowled. Lanka turning this around rapidly.

 

[AndyZaltzHair]

Dont mind declaring now and have a go at lankans for two-three overs. Cant rely on Rana or Hasan Mahmud to add 10 runs

 

[Aritro]

Lanka exploiting the conditions well with a bit more seam around and some moisture in the air. I think we probably let ourselves down with the bat as well tbh

This would be a cracking match if the rain stayed away but the forecast looks dire

 

[Isura]

Mushfiq very lucky to survive that LBW appeal. Hopefully the rain ****s off soon.



Ah Jesus, don't tell me the one time in a bloody blue moon we put on a decent first innings score there's a chance of a washout

Rain always in the game in SL.

Can Bangladesh get a result in three days from here?

 

[Silver Silva]

Managed to bowl BD out ,the seamers did really well , the spinners were overbowled and ineffective

Good figures again for Asitha F. I think he would make every northern hemisphere team.

 

[Silver Silva]

Crazy stat !

 

[Aritro]

Hope it rains all day tomorrow and the next day. Despite some good Lankan bowling, that 6/40 collapse was sobering. They'll have this deficit knocked off by stumps at this rate and then **** knows what our bats could be (in)capable of

 

[Silver Silva]

100 up for Nissanka !
Lot of work to do still ..

 

[Chin Music]

Pitch a bit of a road? Seems like Bangla have underachieved with their score.

 

[govinda indian fan]

Nissanka is class @Silver Silva bro you guys have gem in hands

 

[cnerd123]

This pitch is flat af

Yes ! He's turned himself into a destructive opener at the top ..

Angelo is dismissed! Could be the last time we see him bat in test cricket, if so what a great pleasure it's been to watch this legend !

One of my favourites and one of the best visiting players I've seen in NZ conditions.
