Very disappointing. Obviously SL are better equipped for the conditions than say New Zealand. But still difficult pill to swallow if you’re a BD fan.

Bang bang for Bangladesh...two quick top order wickets.

On a pitch where even the Sri Lankan number 10 got to double figures, Shanto gets out for just 1. Absolutely garbage dismissal.

Relieved to see we're only 1 down at stumps. Past several years Bangladesh's habit has been to concede big totals on flat tracks. But then when they finally get to bat, they are usually 4 down inside the first 15 overs. Doesn't matter whether its seaming wicket or a turning one. Surprising stat here...

In addition to dropping Mendis in 0 in the first test (he went on to get twin hundreds in each innings), the BD boys have dropped 3 catches already in Chittagong. And now this: 120.6 Khaled to Jayasuriya, no run Another drop! Or drops I should say! This was the perfect execution of the plan, Jayasur...

SL heading towards a declaration here. 411-5 at lunch. So often the past several years we've seen Bangladesh come on to bat in the last hour of the day after conceding a massive total on a flat pitch and then being 4 wickets down inside 15 overs. I'll probably break my laptop if that happens again. ...

Shakib back in a surprise plot twist. Bangladesh still struggling tho he bolsters the batting and bowling. 8 batters now.

SL will surely be batting till tea on Day 2, and amass 600 runs probably before declaring. Bangladesh will need to bat well to save the match.

Ireland Netherlands Scotland also having a tri series.

Those three teams beating each other up can only be good for Zimbabwe finishing in the top 12.

Totally forgot about Ebodat, Bangladesh are surely missing him. What's the update on him?

Still recovering from an ACL injury and surgery. He's started running recently and said he would resume bowling a couple weeks after Eid (in another 3-4 weeks from now).

Pakistan just announced they are touring Ireland for 3 T20Is in May. So another series that will impact the final rankings.

Totally forgot about Ebodat, Bangladesh are surely missing him. What's the update on him? They have a very good pace attack Bangladesh, somehow all if them don't kind of come off at once. Taskin, Ebadot, Shoriful, Mushfiqur, Hasan Mahmud, Nahid Rana, Khalid Ahmed... All of them are pretty good. Yea...
