Sri Lankan new players are taking too much time to settle in a good form, return of the captain SL Malinga was a big hope for Sri Lanka but their last match had well performed as the expectations were. Other side Hosts Bangladesh team struggling too for T20 World Cup 2016 but they also were not so good in previous matches.
So Bangladesh had already won a match and also a lost one but its the second match of Sri Lanka team and they will try their best to keep good position in pints table but also Bangladesh will try harder then their opponents because if they loos today’s match then it can be the very bad impression on points which later may become the cause of their trouble to qualify for next round.
