Bangladesh clinched their first-ever T20I series win against Sri Lanka, sealing a 2-1 victory with an emphatic eight-wicket win in the decider at R. Premadasa Stadium, Colombo.
Match Highlights:
- Sri Lanka set a modest 132/7, thanks to Pathum Nissanka’s 46 and Dasun Shanaka’s late 35*.
- Bangladesh’s bowlers, led by Mahedi Hasan, reduced Sri Lanka to 49/4 in the powerplay and finished with impressive figures of 4/11 in 4 overs, breaking Harbhajan Singh’s 2012 record for the best bowling by a visiting spinner at Premadasa.
Batting Brilliance:
- It was opening batsman Tanzid Hasan Tamim who hit an outstanding match-winning unbeaten 73 off 47 balls * his best in T20 Internationals, that included six mighty sixes. He put on an unbeaten 74-run stand with captain Litton Das (32*), as the chase was completed in 16.3 overs.
- Bangladesh was successful in completing the chase by subduing and winning the first series, Sri Lanka.
Why It Matters:
- This win is Bangladesh's first-ever T20I series triumph in Sri Lanka, although the touring side had returns to back Test (0-1) and One-day Series (1-2) losses.
Mahedi’s 4/11 dismantled the Sri Lankan top order, while Tanzid’s unbeaten assault turned the game decisively in Bangladesh’s favor.
