Sri Lanka have been one of the most consistent sides in the group stage. They topped their group by winning all three matches and entered the Super 4 unbeaten.
The team’s batting depth and balanced bowling attack have been their biggest strengths. Players like Kusal Mendis and Charith Asalanka led with the bat, while Wanindu Hasaranga and Dushmantha Chameera provided key breakthroughs with the ball.
Their all-round performances have made them one of the strongest contenders for a place in the final.
Bangladesh had a mixed group stage but still managed to qualify for the Super 4 after Afghanistan’s slip-up.
They registered one crucial win that helped their net run rate, while their other outings exposed weaknesses in the middle order and fielding.
Skipper Liton Das and young batter Towhid Hridoy stood out with important contributions, while Taskin Ahmed and Mustafizur Rahman kept their bowling unit competitive. Bangladesh will now look to carry momentum into the Super 4 stage and push for a spot in the final.
Sri Lanka: Pathum Nissanka, Kusal Mendis (wk), Kamil Mishara, Kusal Perera, Charith Asalanka (c), Dasun Shanaka, Kamindu Mendis, Wanindu Hasaranga, Dunith Welalage, Dushmantha Chameera, Nuwan Thushara.
Bangladesh: Tanjid Hasan, Liton Das (c), Saif Hasan, Towhid Hridoy, Shamim Hossain, Zaker Ali, Nurul Hasan, Rishad Hossain, Nasum Ahmed, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman.
