The match starts at 3 pm IST which is 3 pm local time. This is the second match of the Super 4s of Asia Cup 2023. Sri Lanka and Bangladesh have already faced each other once in the tournament with the Lankans beating the Tigers by five wickets.

Starting with the SL vs BAN second match, all the rest of the matches including the final will be played in Colombo. There were reports of Hambantota being the alternate venue for the Super 4 campaign of the Asia Cup. However, the ACC (Asian Cricket Council) finally decided to continue with Colombo despite rain threat in almost all the games.

This is Sri Lanka’s first Super 4 game while the second for Bangladesh. Bangladesh lost their first Super 4 match against Pakistan. The Tigers were bowled out for 194 with Shakib Al Hasan and Mushfiqur Rahim scoring fifties. Haris Rauf took 4/19 with the ball displaying some brilliant death bowling attributes.

Pakistan chased down the target inside 40 overs with Imam-ul-Haq scoring 78 and Mohammad Rizwan scoring an unbeaten 63. A loss against Sri Lanka would end Bangladesh’s future in this tournament while a win keeps them very much alive. Thus the SL vs BAN match is a must-win for the Tigers.

Sri Lanka, on the other hand, were tested by Afghanistan. The Afghans needed to overhaul Sri Lanka’s target of 292 inside 37.1 overs. An inspiring batting display took them to 289 and they fell short by just two runs. Mohammad Nabi scored the fastest fifty for Afghanistan during his knock of 65 off 32 balls in the chase. It was a heartbreak for the Afghan side who lost the game but not without a fight.

While Sri Lanka needs to come up with a better bowling effort against Bangladesh, Bangladesh needs improvements in both batting and bowling departments to beat a spirited Sri Lankan side. Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have played 52 ODIs against each other with the Lankans winning 41 matches while the Tigers just nine. It’s time for Bangladesh to deliver a knockout punch to the Lankans.
