Sri Lanka U-19 vs Bangladesh U-19, 5th ODI: Probable XIs, match prediction, live streaming, weather forecast and pitch report
Sri Lanka U19 will take on Bangladesh U19 in the fifth ODI on October 25 at the Rangiri Dumbulla International Stadium.
In the fourth ODI, the visitors, having won the toss, elected to bat first on what seemed to be a tricky surface.
Thanks to the batting performances of Meherob Hassan (71-ball 52) and Ariful Islam (67-ball 50), they managed to set a defendable 225-run target for the hosts to chase down. Dunith Wellalage was the star with the ball for Sri Lanka, claiming a four-wicket haul.
Chasing what was a tricky target, the hosts lost early wickets and looked in a dire state. A great batting effort from middle-order batter Raveen De Silva (100-ball 88) ensured Sri Lanka remained on track to chase down the target.
Sri Lanka held their nerve in what ended up being an edge-of-the-seat thriller, eventually winning the encounter by one wicket.
A three-wicket haul by Mushfik Hasan and two wickets from Ahosan Leon ensured the islanders did not make light work of the target. Despite the loss, the visitors would embrace these positives with open arms.
A cracker of a contest is on the cards as Sri Lanka push for a whitewash and the visitors look to prevent the humiliation.
