Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh ICC World Cup 2023 Updates
Having nothing to lose, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh face each other in India's capital city today. Almost out of the competition, both these Asian nations will play to leave the tournament with some positivity. Despite having a profound understanding of the sub-continent pitches, both teams failed to make the most out of it. Both teams looked solid in the beginning with a mix of young and experienced players. While there were some remarkable individual performances, both teams failed to click at the right time.
So it is Shakib-Al-Hasan-led Bangladesh that emerged victorious against Sri Lanka in this game. Batting first, Charith Asalanka's century and a responsible knock from opener Pathum Nissanka and Sadeera Samarawickrama helped Sri Lanka set a target of 279. Although Bangladesh lost openers early, Najmul Shanto and Shakib Hasan ensured they would embrace the victory in their penultimate game of the World Cup. Angelo Matthews became the first player in cricket history to get dismissed as timed out in this game. Angelo Matthews and Bangladesh will be remembered forever for that weird out.
