Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: Shakib Al Hasan wins toss, Bangladesh to bowl
Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: Shakib Al Hasan has won the toss and Bangladesh will bat first in Colombo
Two of Asia’s most dynamic cricketing nations, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh, are set to meet again in the Asia Cup Super 4 on Saturday, with records and hopes on the line. Sri Lanka aim for their 13th consecutive ODI win, edging closer to the Australian team’s remarkable 21-game unbeaten streak in 2003. Meanwhile, Bangladesh seek consistency in both batting and bowling to secure their spot in the final.
Sri Lanka have already handed them a defeat in the group stage, restricting Bangladesh to 165 and easily achieving a 5-wicket victory during the chase. Furthermore, Bangladesh faced a disappointing defeat at the hands of Pakistan in their first match of the Super 4 stage, and another loss on Saturday would all but end their hopes to make it to the final of the continental event. Rain is likely to hamper the proceedings, however, which can make things difficult for both sides throughout the clash.

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: Birthday boy Dasun Shanaka’s thoughts
“We would have batted first, it’ll seam and spin a bit under lights. The rules in ODIs mean it’s difficult to defend totals, but we do have class bowlers like Pathiran and Theekshana, that helped us fight back against Afghanistan. The talk is about trusting yourselves and following the process. The guys have been delivering and that’s key to being a good side. Same team for us..”

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: What Shakib said
“We will field first, no particular reason, there could be some rain around. We have one extra bowler and we will bowl first. A must-win situation, but playing against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka isn’t easy. There is no room for complacency, it’s a bit different to pakistan and we’ll have to adjust. One change, Nasum replaces Afif Hossain”

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: The reserve day drama
There is a lot of backlash about the India vs Pakistan game in the Super 4 being the only match getting a reserve day. This has come from Indian and Pakistani sides as much as it has from Sri Lanka or Bangladesh. After a rather scathing assessment of the situation by Bangladesh coach Chandika Hathurusinghe both the Bangladesh and Sri Lanka cricket boards put out identical statements saying that this has been done with their consent. All very unfortunate and murky.

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: Sri Lanka’s concerns
Sri Lanka may have won both their matches but they exposed their problems far more than anything. They first struggled to chase down 165 against Bangladesh and then almost allowed Afghanistan to gun down 292 in 37.1 overs, which would have led to them being knocked out of the tournament.

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: Bangladesh chasing consistency
It hasn’t been the best of tournaments for Bangladesh. The three-time runners-up had a disastrous start against Sri Lanka but recovered quickly to cruise past Afghanistan. Just as it looked like the side had gained momentum, one of their in-form batters – Nazmul Shanto – faced injury and was ruled out of the Super 4 game against Pakistan. The side will now seek a quick recovery and aim to remain alive in contention for Super 4

Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Live Score, Asia Cup 2023 Super 4: Sri Lanka unbeaten so far
In their previous match in the 2023 edition, Sri Lanka outclassed Bangladesh by five wickets after bundling the side out on 165. Against Afghanistan, Dasun Shanaka’s men had a close shave, as a gross miscalculation from their opponents played key to Sri Lanka’s 2-run win. The momentum is undoubtedly with the hosts as they enter their first Super 4 game
