Bangladesh had started very well in their power play. In this pallekele stadium 170 was average run scored. They way Bangladesh started in their power play 170/180 was projected scored . It might be a bit contest full to watch.
I literary shocked they way played Srilankan Batters. Nissanka cracking shot with mendis they scored 80 run in power play. I thought they gonna win in 12 over so far . But it didn't turned out like that. So if the match played over 180 run this would something interesting to watch . Srilankan player's deserve a shoutout and praise
Bangladesh failed to give a big target as usual. A target of 155 runs cannot be a big target in T20 matches these days. Bangladesh needed to give a target of at least 180 +. But Bangladesh could not give a big target. Except opener Parvez Emon, no other batsman could do well. Although Naim could play an innings of 32 runs, he batted at a strike rate of only 110.
It was very difficult to win the target of 155 runs. At the same time, the Bangladeshi bowlers could not start well. Sri Lanka collected 83 runs in 6 overs of the power play. And in 10 overs, Sri Lanka's collection was 101/1. It was very easy for Sri Lanka to collect only 54 runs in the next 60 balls.
Pathum Nissanka collected 42 runs in just 16 balls. Besides, Kushal Mendis played a brilliant innings of 73 runs in 51 balls. There is no batsman in Bangladesh's squad who can score 50+ at a decent strike rate.
