Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh prediction

Sri Lanka defeated Bangladesh 2-1 in the ODI series and now turn their attentions to the T20 matches, in which they’ll be confident of further success. Their batters should be able to get on top of the Tigers’ bowling attack early on whether the hosts are setting or chasing a victory target in this one.

Bangladesh have some good pieces among their side, but it’s still hard to see them being able to get the better of Sri Lanka away from home and so backing Sri Lanka to take the lead in the series does look to be the sensible play on this occasion.
