SL vs BAN Dream11 Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – Bangladesh Tour of Sri Lanka, 2nd ODI

Match Preview

As expected, Sri Lanka picked up an easy victory in the first ODI of the series against Bangladesh. Although the margin of defeat was on the larger side, the Bangladesh team had some positives to take away from the contest. Some of their batters, such as Jaker Ali and Tanzid Hasan, batted well.

The Bangladesh bowlers also bowled well to pull back the Sri Lankan batting charge, which looked all set for a score over 300 runs at one stage. Sri Lankans, on the other hand, would be happy with the result. They played well despite some spirited opposition from the Bangladesh team in both the batting and bowling departments.
