Sri Lanka Opts to Field in a High Stakes Clash Against Bangladesh


Sri Lanka has won the toss and opted to bowl in a high-stakes clash against Bangladesh. The two Asian giants are playing on a fresh pitch in Abu Dhabi, meaning there is bounce and seam available for bowlers.
Talking about the teams, Sri Lanka has brought in Wanindu Hasaranga as the only spinner in the squad. He has returned to the Asia Cup squad as a fully fit player after missing out the Zimbabwe tour due to a hamstring injury.
Sri Lanka has opted to bring in three all-rounders in the squad for this big clash, including Dasun Shanaka, Kamindu Mendis, and Wanindu Hasaranga. Alongside them, three specialist fast bowlers will bring in the heat in Abu Dhabi, including Dushmantha Chameera, Matheesha Pathirana, and Nuwan Thushara.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, has also picked three specialist fast bowlers. They have left out Taskin Ahmed and included Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Shoriful Islam, and Mustafizur Rahman as the specialist fast bowling options. Both Mustafizur and Shoriful are attacking left arm seamers, hence giving them a go against Sri Lankan openers does look to be a good option for Bangladesh.
The game is now underway and is looking well-balanced as Sri Lanka has picked four quick wickets.
