Both teams have faced each other in 22 test matches, out of which Sri Lanka has won 17 games – whereas Bangladesh has countered with victory on only 1 occasion. And the rest of 4 matches ended up as a draw. Tune in to watch the LIVE cricket test match score on LotusFair.com.
Player Battle
Bangladesh captain Mominul Haque will continue leading the test series as he revealed that team BAN is feeling refreshed and ready to participate in its first Test series since the beating against SL 0-1. This test match will not witness the pace of Taskin Ahmed and Shariful Islam as he rebounds from a back injury.
On the other hand, Sri Lanka’s opener Dimuth Karunaratne will be leading Sri Lanka. Karunaratne is expected to deliver a glut of runs and experience to this crucial match.
It would be a fascinating little contest awaited between the two veteran high-quality all-rounders from the respective teams, Angelo Mathews (SL) & Shakib Al Hasan (BAN) as their performance on the field for their teams might well decide the fate & outcome of the series to a considerable and decent extent.
