Asia Cup: Sri Lanka make Super 4s after thrilling two-wicket win over Bangladesh
At the end of the day, after 39.2 overs of play, Bangladesh bowling cracked under as tournament hosts Sri Lanka chased down a daunting 184-run target with two wickets in hand to make it to the Super 4s. It was a battle of egos for both team. Both teams turned out to throw punches at each other on the field. Sri Lanka captain Dasun Shanaka had a lot riding on him the moment he had announced Bangladesh 'a far easier opponent' than Afghanistan. Shanaka anchored the chase with a 33-ball 45 as Kusal Mendis's 37-ball 60 put enormous pressure on Bangladesh bowlers who faltered for the second consecutive time in the last three overs, failing to defend 35.
