Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh, 2nd Test - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Bangladesh have won the toss and have opted to bat

09:00 Local Time, 03:30 GMT: After a draw in the first Test at Galle, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh arrive in Colombo with all to play. The visitors came out of that Test as the better side. They managed to gain a small first innings lead and put the hosts under pressure in the final session of day 5. The twin hundreds from skipper Najmul Shanto was the standout but there were other notable contributions from Mushfiqur and Nayeem Hasan. They would like to carry forward that performance into this Test and hopefully record a series win. As for Sri Lanka, the Galle Test will be remembered for Angelo Mathews as he played his final game in whites. The veteran has left a huge void which will need filling in this Test as well as in the future. They will also be without Milan Ratnayke who is ruled out due to an injury. Who is going to bat at no. 4? Who will replace Ratnayke? They already had two debutants in the first Test. Will there be another? We should know soon as the toss is coming up..
