Sri Lanka will be disappointed to not cross the line after the start Kusal Mendis gave them, but credit to Bangladesh for using the conditions really well. Don't forget Shamim's special contribution. He looked like getting a wicket every over and he was even putting pressure on the right-handers with his accuracy and trajectory. This rivalry gave us a humdinger tonight. The series is square 1-1 and the decider will be played in Pallekele. Different ground, different challenge. Join us on the journey again on Tuesday. Take care!
Mehidy Hasan Miraz: 240 was difficult to bat on in the second innings. We believed we can defend 248
Charith Asalanka: I feel not that much. Because I think the bowlers did a great job after they got a good start.
Tanvir Islam | 5/39 | PoTM:
22:20 Local Time, 16:50 GMT, 22:20 IST: So Bangladesh force this into a decider. They were quite smart. With the bat towards the end and then with the ball for a good part of the second innings.
