Sri Lanka will take on Bangladesh in the final One Day International of the three-match series at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy this afternoon.
The game is scheduled to get underway at 2:30 p.m.
The match is crucial for both teams, with Bangladesh seeking their first-ever ODI series victory in Sri Lanka. The series is currently leveled at 1-1.
Sri Lanka claimed a comprehensive 77-run victory in the series opener in Colombo but will be looking to avoid a repeat of their previous match, where they failed to chase down a target of 249 runs despite being close.
Sri Lanka however hold a massive advantage over Bangladesh in terms of head-to-head stats in ODIs.
The Lankans have secured 44 wins while Bangladesh registered only 13 victories (NR: 2).
Sri Lanka have won 21 of their 24 concluded home ODIs against Bangladesh.
Bangladesh won 2-1 when these two sides last met in an ODI series, in Bangladesh last year.
