Batting against Sri Lanka, the Tigers scored 286 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in 50 overs. Sri Lanka needs to score 287 runs to win. Tanjim Hasan Shakib was dismissed for 18 runs in the last 33 balls. This broke the partnership of Towhid Hridoy and Tanjim Shakib. Then Taskin Ahmed entered the field.
Hridoy put Bangladesh ahead by a huge margin with 96 runs off 102 balls. And Taskin scored 18 runs off 10 balls. He scored a fifty against Australia in the last World Cup. That was Hridoy's last fifty in international cricket. After 8 innings, he scored another 50-run innings. This was his seventh fifty in his ODI career.
Meanwhile, Liton Das was bowled on the first ball of the innings in the first ODI of the series. After the golden duck, he was able to play a total of 3 balls this time. However, he could not open the run book. This opener returned after being called today. Liton took an easy catch at square leg in the first over bowled by Sri Lankan pacer Dilshan Madushanka.
If they win the match against Sri Lanka today, they will win the series, if they lose, they will have to wait for the next match. After the emphatic victory in the first ODI, the Tigers are now largely pressure-free. If they win one of the last two matches, the series is assured.
The two teams are set to play at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chittagong on Friday. The match starts at 2:30 pm Bangladesh time.
