Bangladesh will take on Sri Lanka in the 2nd T20I of the 3-match series at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium, Sylhet, on Wednesday (6 March) evening.

Bangladesh lost the first T20I on Monday by just three runs. Newcomers Rishad Hossain and Jaker Ali did well with the ball and bat. Bowling first, Bangladesh conceded an above-par 206 runs, but Mahmudullah and others took the team to winning distance. 

On the other hand, Sri Lanka will be pleased with their performance in the first T20. Mendis and Samarawickrama scored the fifties to put on a big first innings total, which proved enough. Matthews, Shanaka, and Fernando took two wickets each.
