00:00 Sri Lankan cricket team backed a dominating victory against Bangladesh led by their captain
00:06 Dasun Shanaka and standout performances from spinner Mahesh Dixana and Matisha Patirana
00:12 shouldering the bowling attack.
00:15 Following Sri Lanka's decent total of 257, Bangladesh could only muster 236 and lost
00:21 the match by 21 runs.
00:23 Bangladesh showed grit through young star Tauheed Ridhoi but the match wasn't a space
00:28 for a one-man show.
00:30 Now with two matches left, Sri Lanka could make a genuine charge towards the final.
00:35 Pakistan already outclassed Bangladesh in the Super 4 opening game, ending the Shakibhal
00:41 Hassan led side's hope of qualifying for the finals.
00:44 In the run chase, Bangladesh started optimistically as they aimed to overhaul Sri Lanka's total.
00:51 Openers Mehdi Hassan Miraz and Mohd Naeem posted 55 runs in the first 11 overs for Bangladesh.
00:58 However, the partnership met a deadlock as Shanaka dismissed Mehdi Hassan of his own
01:03 delivery.
01:04 At one point, Bangladesh were at 83-4.
01:07 With Mushfiqur Rahim and Ridhoi on the crease, they managed to add another 62 runs for the
01:14 fifth wicket.
01:15 Despite limited boundaries, the 22-year-old Ridhoi kept the scoreboard ticking with sharp
01:21 running between the wickets.
01:23 However, the tides turned when Shanaka dismissed Mushfiqur Rahim and Mahesh Dixana bowled Ridhoi
01:29 out, gradually evaporating Bangladesh's hopes.
01:33 In the first innings, Sadeela Samara Vikrama and Kusal Mendis played instrumental roles
01:38 despite a severe challenge from Bangladeshi bowlers.
01:42 Despite losing frequent wickets, Samara Vikrama stood firm, showcasing his dexterity on the
01:48 field.
01:49 Samara Vikrama's sixth off-pacer Hassan Mahmood was indeed a sight to behold.
01:54 Underlining his mastery over the game, Samara Vikrama and Shanaka's sixth-wicket partnership
02:00 took Sri Lanka past the 200-run mark.
02:03 While Samara Vikrama's impressive knock concluded in the last over of the innings, the Lungan
02:07 bowlers ensured it didn't go in vain by clinching the crucial match.
