Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, 2nd ODI (Sri Lanka National Cricket Team vs Bangladesh National Cricket Team): Sri Lanka lead the three-match ODI series 1-0 after a spectacular Bangladesh collapse that saw the visitors losing seven wickets for five runs after captain Charith Asalanka’s century to win the contest by 77 runs earlier this week. Asalanka, whose knock of 106 included four sixes, had won the toss and elected to bat first. His team was bowled out for 244 runs with four deliveries remaining in the final over at R. Premadasa Stadium.
Bangladesh were cruising at 100/1 in the 17th over when Milan Rathnayake’s classy piece of fielding to run out Najmul Hossain Shanto on 23 shifted the momentum. That fielding effort ended a 71-run partnership for the second wicket between Shanto and Tanzid Hasan that led eventually to Bangladesh being dismissed for 167 runs in the 36th over.
