Match Report

And with that our coverage of this match comes to an end. Goodbye!
Sri Lanka take a victory lap after a well-deserved victory.
Sri Lanka have pull off a stunning victory in Japan! They were four down in four overs in the first innings but an incredible 65 off 32 from Tharindu Ratnayake propelled them to a challenging total. Nuwan Thushara and Ratnayake provided an excellent start with the ball in the second innings, never allowing the Bangladeshi batters to settle in. The rest chipped in with wickets throughout the middle overs as any thoughts of Bangladesh's recovery were laid to rest.

Pummels the length ball into stumps right over the bowler's head. And, that's 100 up for Bangladesh. Clears his front leg and clubs it down the ground right from the middle of his bat.

Hemantha to Al Islam

The googly does the trick! Lobbed on length and it turns into him from the line of off stump. The debutant is surprised by the spin and bounce and the ball crashes into his stumps off the inside edge as he is late to bring his bat down.

Big appeal for caught behind but the umpire in unmoved. Looks to sweep googly but misses. The ball is held by the keeper after kissing his thigh
