Full commentary
This has been one thorough chase by Sri Lanka, set up by Kusal Janith Perera's maiden ODI ton and a solid stand between him and Dinesh Chandimal..Bangladesh exerted some pressure in the first half of the innings with their spinners, but they didn't manage to get the wickets.. Most impressive was KJP's poise during the innings and Chandimal's skill in rotating the strike. They never really appeared hurried, helping Sri Lanka end this tour with another win. A sorry series for Bangladesh during which they failed to win a single match.. It's perfect preparation for Sri Lanka ahead of the Asia Cup, but Bangladesh will have serious concerns. We will be back next week with the Asia Cup, till then ciao ciao.
Man of the Match is Kusal Perera for his maiden century
Man of the Series - Sachithra Senanayake
Uwaisul Karnain: "Clinical performance by SL to wrap the series. Captain Mathews and rookie Priyanjan added the finishing touch after Kusal & Chandimal set up the run chase with a brilliant partnership."
sagar: "parera and chandimal patnership was the difference between two team. if now bd chasing this run it could be different story.... its all about planning not about experience. "
Piumal De Soysa: "Lots of things to take out of this tournament,Angelo's captaincy,Success of the middle order and the lower middle order,ground fielding and more importantly the consistency from the next tournament..Chandimal's best innings always comes in the last game of the tournament.He has loads of work to do.. Bangla need to change their approach towards the game and needs play through the small passages to gain the upperhand of the game which they have the ability but not capitalise on.."
