Bangladesh and Sri Lanka has entered in T20 series with a very unfortunate start for Bangladesh and a powerful welcome for Sri Lanka. Bangladesh opened first innings with 46 runs partnership, a great start from the openers but after the loss of first wicket 2 wickets were knocked at 67 runs. Sri Lanka bowlers knocked out batsmen at short intervals putting a pressure on opponents. The middle order players contributed great runs ending this inning at 154 runs with elimination of 5 wickets. Sri Lanka opened with Nissanka snd Mendis who scored a partnership of 78 runs, proving how stronger is Sri Lanka's batting lineup. Mendis scored 73 runs the highest scorer in team almost brought the runs close to target. The remaining runs were chase by rest of the team after loss of 3 wickets so Sri Lanka won this game by 7 wickets.
If this was Bangladesh' s home series, I would have said that bangladesh has a chance of winning the series. But the chances of Bangladesh winning the SriLankan home series are very low. Also , we know that the performance of Bangladeshi batsmen is very weak. In this series too, we can see bad batting by Bangladeshi batsmen.
Bangladesh lost the Test and odi series. Bangladesh lost both the matches of the ODI series by a big margin. And they lost only because of the bad batting of the batsmen. In the first T 20 match, the performance of both the batsmen and the bowlers was weak . Except for opener Parvez Emon, no other batsman was able to bat well.
Bangladesh will have a low chance of winning the second match too. If Bangladesh can win , they are very lucky. It is impossible to win T20 matches unless the performance of the batsmen improves.
