SL vs BAN 3rd ODI: All you need to know, head to head, playing XI
Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will be facing off in the third and final ODI slated to be played on Tuesday at Pallekele International Cricket Stadium, Pallekele. Bangladesh, who bounced back swiftly in the series with a superb 16-run win in the second ODI, would aim to clinch their maiden series win in Sri Lanka with a win in the third and final ODI.
Sri Lanka, on the other hand, had a blazing start with a 77-run win in the first ODI, but their inability to chase 248 in the second game cost them a disastrous defeat. Kusal Mendis and Janith Liyanage’s brilliant efforts went in vain as Sri Lanka were bundled out for 232 in 48.5 overs. Both Kusal Mendis and Janith Liyanage scored 56 and 78, respectively. Nonetheless, Sri Lanka would look to overcome the challenging defeat and secure a series win. Moreover, they have a home advantage, which they will look to leverage to bolster themselves in their quest for the series win.
