Sri Lanka (SL) will be taking on Bangladesh (BAN) in the 2nd Test of the ongoing series. It is crucial for both teams, considering that the points would be helpful for the tally in the 3rd cycle of the World Test Championship (WTC). Sri Lanka hammered Bangladesh in the first Test by 328 runs. On a seaming wicket in Sylhet, the visiting side was brilliant with the ball and tamed the home side with great bowling performances in both innings. The Sri Lankan batters outbatted the Bangladeshi batters.

Dhananjaya De Silva and Kamindu Mendis were the stars for Sri Lanka. On a seaming wicket, the duo registered twin tons and took the game away from the home side. In the first innings, both De Silva and Mendis scored 102 each. In the second inning, they were even better after getting the lead. While Dhananjaya scored 108, Kamindu was exceptional and scored 164 runs. In the process, the emerging batter became the first batter in the history of Test cricket to score twin hundreds batting at number 7 or below in the same match.

In addition to it, the Sri Lankan pacers were brilliant. The likes of Vishwa Fernando, Kasun Rajitha, and Lahiru Kumara bowled well in both innings. Vishwa claimed 4 and 3 wickets in the first and second innings, respectively. Rajitha had 3 and 5 scalps in the first and second innings, respectively. Kumara was responsible for the fall of 3 and 2 wickets in the first and second innings, respectively. The second Test is set to take place at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram from the 30th of March to the 3rd of April.

Pitch Report

The second Test between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka is set to take place at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram. The wicket is set to play food for the first two days, and the spinners are likely to get some purchase in the last three days. The first two days are the best for batting. With the progression of the Test, batting might be tricky. Toss would be crucial as the teams would love to bat.

Player Picks

8.5
C

Dhananjaya de Silva SL | ALL

Dhananjay De Silva is the skipper of Sri Lanka. In the first Test against Bangladesh, the star batter led from the front with his batting performances. In the first innings, he scored 102 and backed up with 108 in the second innings to bag the player of the match award.

9
C

Kamindu Mendis SL | ALL

Kamindu Mendis was highly impressive in the first Test against Bangladesh. In the first innings, he registered 102. But in the second innings, he took it to another level and smashed 176 to take the game away from the home side.

9
C

Dimuth Karunaratne SL | BAT

Dimuth Karunaratne made a good 52 in the second innings of the first Test, after perishing early in the first innings. He is one of the best openers in Tests and would be hoping to make an impact in the second Test to end the tour on a high note.

7

Taijul Islam BAN | BOWL

Taijul Islam was one of the bright spots for Bangladesh in the first Test despite the huge loss. In the first innings, he claimed a wicket and added 47 runs with the bat. In the second innings, he claimed two wickets and scored 6 runs.

8.5

Mehidy Hasan Miraz BAN | ALL

Mehidy Hasan was good as an All-Rounder in the first Test. The young player scored 11 and 33 runs in the first and second innings respectively as a batter. He claimed four wickets in the second innings and was the pick of the bowlers.

8

Prabath Jayasuriya SL | BOWL

Prabath Jayasuriya did not have to do much in the first Test due to the nature of the wicket in Sylhet. But in the second Test, he will be key for the success of Sri Lanka. Given that Chattogram might assist the spinners, he might be the X-factor for the visiting side.

8

Mahmudul Hasan Joy BAN | BAT

Mahmudul Hasan Joy has not batted well in the ongoing tour. In the first Test, he scored 12(46) in the first innings before bagging a duck in the second innings. But he can come good in the second Test at Chattogram.

6.5

Zakir Hasan

BAN | BAT

Zakir Hasan has failed in both the innings of the ongoing series. In the first innings, he perished for 9 runs. In the second innings, Hasan scored 19 runs. Given the lack of exposure at the highest level, it is better to avoid him.
