Dew Plays Spoilsport as Bangladesh Defies Sri Lanka's Dominance
In a thrilling ODI encounter, Bangladesh’s Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mushfiqur Rahim defied the odds, overcoming a precarious situation to guide their team to a remarkable victory over Sri Lanka. Despite reducing the hosts to 92 for 4 in pursuit of 256, Sri Lanka’s bowling attack was rendered ineffective by the dew factor, allowing the duo to stitch together a match-winning 165-run partnership.
Shanto’s unbeaten 122 and Mushfiqur’s 73 not out proved instrumental in Bangladesh’s chase, as they tackled the challenges posed by the dew-laden outfield with remarkable composure and skill.
