Rathnayake to E Chowdhury
Wicket. OUT! L.B.W. Tharindu Rathnayake to Ebadot Hossain. Off break length ball, outside off stump on the back foot defending, hit pad. Sri Lanka seal the series 1-0 with a clinical innings and 78 run win. Pathum Nissanka led the charge with a brilliant 158, setting up a dominant total. The Bangladesh bowlers struggled to contain the flow, and their batters collapsed under pressure against spin. Prabath Jayasuriya bagged his 12th five-wicket haul, while Dhananjaya de Silva and Tharindu Rathnayake took two wickets each to wrap up the game. The visitors couldn't build partnerships and fell well short of making Sri Lanka bat again. They will look to bounce back in the upcoming ODI and T20I series. Pathum Nissanka bags a double honour, Player of the Match and Series.
