Asalanka, bowlers help Sri Lanka thrash Bangladesh
July 2, 2025 10:02 pm
In the first ODI match at Colombo, Sri Lanka tamed Bangladesh by 77 runs.
Charith Asalanka scored a brilliant century as the Lankans managed 244 runs.
The rest of the batting order failed to provide enough support or form a significant partnership with Asalanka.
Bangladesh’s bowlers, led by Taskin Ahmed, put up a disciplined performance to restrict Sri Lanka.
In response, Bangladesh were 100/1 at one stage before they were folded for 167.
