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.
As always, Bangladesh batsmen have performed poorly after having a good start. The middle order batsmen of Bangladesh played very slowly. I wasn't even expecting the target to reach above 150 runs. Sri Lanka would have won the match easily between 14th to 16th over. They stopped playing aggressively to avoid the batting collapse. Spinners did too good for Bangladesh in the middle overs. I expect Bangladesh to win at least one match in the T20 series.
Bangladesh lacks players with T20 temperament, so Bangladesh has not yet learned how to bat in T20. Most Bangladeshi players bat in T20 like slow ODI cricket, while other countries bat aggressively in T20.
Tanzid Hasan 16 runs off 17 balls

How many of you have seen here scoring runs in a T20 style? These are runs scored in ODI and Test style. No one can ever win a T20 by scoring runs like that.
