Match Prediction

Bangladesh will face off with Sri Lanka in the second ODI of the three-match series scheduled to be played at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Dhaka on Tuesday (May 25).

After taking the lead in the first game, Bangladesh will try to wrap up the series and avoid taking it to the last game. The team performed well as their innings was steadied by Mushfiqur Rahim (84), who was supported by a timely cameo from Mahmudullah (54). Skipper Tamim Iqbal (52) also chipped in useful runs as an opener, giving his side a much-needed start. The bowling also looked good as Mehidy Hasan and Mustafizur Rahman bagged 4 and 3 wickets, respectively.

On the other hand, Sri Lanka got off to a poor start as they lost six wickets for just 102 runs on board. The only late spark in the batting came from Wanindu Hasaranga, who smashed 74 runs off 60 balls, thus being the silver linꩵing on a cloudy day. In the bowling department, the Lions were economical but w🌊ill try to gel in so that their strike bowlers could hunt in pairs.

After an average performance in the first outing, Sri Lanka might field the same team except for replacing Pathum Nissanka by Niroshan Dickwella. Nissanka has performed well in the Tests, which has helped him play ODIs as well but scored just 5𓆏0 runs in the four outings he had.

Sri Lanka: Kusal Perera (c & wk), Danushka Gunathilaka, Niroshan Dickwella, Kusal Mendis, Dasun Shanaka, Dhananjaya de Silva, Wanindu Hasaranga, Ashen Bandara, Isuru Ud൲ana, Dushmantha Chameera and Lakshan Sandakan
