Asia Cup starts today Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka game starts at 3:30 PM at Parle Clay in. Skipper Shakib Al Hasan says Sri Lankan team is undoubtedly eternally strong but we will try to start the first match with a win. Meanwhile, Tamim Iqbal Liton Das is not able to play due to the engine, it may affect the team because these three important batsmen are not playing. Undoubtedly, the bowling of the Lankans is very good, so the Tigers of Bangladesh should watch their ball and bat well and play a good game. Finally, those who play well on the field will win. Of course, best wishes for the Bangladesh team. May they play well and win.

Group B is obviously much more tougher compared to the other group, because all three teams are full member nations. In Group A, it is clear that India and Pakistan will qualify for the Super-4 stage, because the third team is very weak (Nepal). In Group B, they have Sri Lanka, Afghanistan and Bangladesh and the competition is going to me much tighter. For today's match, Sri Lanka would be the overwhelming favorites. They have momentum with them, and the home advantage is going to play a very important part.

This is an important Group B match for both of the teams, Srilanka and Bangladesh. Since the match will be played in Srilanka, i think they will have the home advantage.  Group B has some tough competitive teams and no team can afford to lose matches in this group.

Actually it is really difficult to predict this match. If you compare the overall condition of these two teams in recent times, then Bangladesh team can be considered as favourite. But the problem is that there is no consistency in the performance of the players of this team. You know there is no player in the team who is capable of batting responsibly.

On the other hand the problem in Sri Lanka is almost the same. Despite having a lot of star players in the squad, they cannot bat responsibly. I think both teams have equal chances of winning. I actually don't think Sri Lanka home match will give them any extra advantage. Perhaps if the pitch is spin friendly it will be more beneficial for Bangladesh. And so the Sri Lankan team will not be able to take much advantage of the home ground.

Sri Lanka should comfortably defeat Bangladesh unless there are some crazy upsets. They are missing some of their star players like Hasaranga etc, but they should be fine primarily due to home ground advantage.

India vs Pakistan is what I am mainly excited for later this week. The last time they played against each other was way back in 2022.

Sri Lanka obviously has an advantage. But that doesn't mean that today's match will be as one sided as the one between Nepal and Pakistan yesterday. Bangladesh's main players, including Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Shakib Al Hasan and Taskin Ahmed are available for this match. Sri Lanka has no room for complacence. At the same time, Sri Lanka also has fielded a full-strength side, with Kusal Mendis, Dasun Shanaka, Maheesh Theekshana and Dhananjaya de Silva named in the playing XI. But even then, the absence of Wanindu Hasaranga will be felt.

As a Bangladeshi, I would like to make a comment today, until Bangladesh cricket can get out of the ring of corruption, it will not be possible to equip Bangladesh squad with good players. How is this change coming in Bangladesh's opening pair, Tanzid Hasan who defended only two balls was appealed LBW in two consecutive balls and finally got out LBW for 0 runs. This is how the player made his debut in the Bangladesh squad. Cricket in Bangladesh will not improve as long as there are corrupt people in the management of Bangladesh.

One of Bangladesh's opening batsmen Tamim Iqbal is not in the squad and Liton Das is not in today's match, Bangladesh's opening batting has not been good. New batsman Tanzid Hasan is out lbw. At the moment, Bangladesh has collected 11 runs in 4 overs after losing 1 wicket. I think Bangladesh have to target 300+ runs to win today's match. Let's see how many runs Bangladesh can give the target in the end.

[Sithara007]

Sri Lanka is an entirely different team when they play at home. Bangladeshi batsmen are in trouble. After 8 over, they are struggling at 25/2, with Najmul Hossain Shanto at the crease along with Shakib Al Hasan. Mohammad Naim and Tanzid Hasan are already back in pavilion. Sri Lankan bowlers (especially their spinners) have been wonderful, and so far Maheesh Theekshana and Dhananjaya de Silva have picked up one wicket apiece. Now we need to remember that Hasaranga is not playing in this match, so the Bangladeshi batsmen will get an opportunity to face less experienced bowlers soon.

Asia Cup second match Group-B, Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka. The fight between the two teams has already started. Bangladesh team won the toss and batting first. Bangladesh team's batting start is disappointing. In 1.2 overs of the game, the opening batsman of the Bangladesh team, Tanzid Hasan, played 2 balls and got out for 0 runs. The bowlers of the Sri Lankan team kept the batsmen of the Bangladesh team under pressure at the beginning of the game. Now it is to be seen whether the players of the Bangladesh team will be able to overcome the pressure of the Sri Lankan bowlers

 Bangladesh Vs Srilanka 2nd Match of Asia Cup
The 2nd match between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh of the Asia Cup has Started. Bangladesh won the toss and decided to bat first the opener of Bangladeshi Tanzid Hasan out for a duck. The current score of Bangladesh is 65 runs in loss of 3 early wickets in 16.1 Overs. The bowling performance of Sirlanka is amazing Maheesh Theekshana picked up 1 wicket by just giving only 9 runs in 3 Overs. Najmul Hossain Shanto is playing at 33 Not Out in 50 balls along with Towhid Hridoy at 9 Not Out in 11 balls. The partnership between Shanto and Hridoy is very important to set a good 250-plus target for Sirlanka.

The batsmen of Bangladesh have not been able to prove the right to win the toss against Sri Lanka and decide to bat so far because Bangladesh is under batting pressure against Sri Lanka so far. Bangladesh have managed to score 65 runs for three wickets by batting 16 overs so far. Bangladesh suffered a batting disaster after losing early wickets which Nazmul Hussain Shanto and Towhid Hridoy are trying to overcome. Currently the match between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka is suspended due to rain. As the rain is not too much, it is expected that play will resume soon. Right now, Bangladesh needs a good partnership. If Bangladesh can do a good partnership, then definitely the end of Bangladesh will be good.

India vs Pakistan is what I am mainly excited for later this week. The last time they played against each other was way back in 2022.

There might be some problems in the India vs Pakistan match because the forecast is not looking good for Saturday.

Part timer Dhananjaya already bowled the majority of his overs, it gives you an idea of how inexperienced this Lankan's bowling lineup is. One positive is that likes of Matheesha Pathirana getting chances.

Sri Lanka is an entirely different team when they play at home. Bangladeshi batsmen are in trouble. After 8 over, they are struggling at 25/2, with Najmul Hossain Shanto at the crease along with Shakib Al Hasan. Mohammad Naim and Tanzid Hasan are already back in pavilion. Sri Lankan bowlers (especially their spinners) have been wonderful, and so far Maheesh Theekshana and Dhananjaya de Silva have picked up one wicket apiece. Now we need to remember that Hasaranga is not playing in this match, so the Bangladeshi batsmen will get an opportunity to face less experienced bowlers soon.

Sri Lanka's bowling department put Bangladesh under a lot of pressure early on and they fell by two wickets for 25 runs. After Shakib Al Hasan came to the wicket, the Bangladeshi supporters thought that Shakib Al Hasan might face the pressure of Bangladesh and give a good innings, but Shakib Al Hasan's innings ended with a personal five runs. Then Nazmul Hasan Shanto and Tawheed Hriday struggle to give Bangladesh a respectable target. But unfortunately, a reliable batsman Tawheed Hriday got out for 20 runs in Bangladesh team's 95 runs. Anyway, I am not taking Bangladesh as a favorite team in today's match, I am taking Sri Lanka as a favorite as always. Bangladesh's top order batsmen completely failed in front of Sri Lanka's inexperienced bowlers.

Even though Sri Lanka is a favorite team today, we expected a good game between these two teams. Bangladesh had some close matches against Sri Lanka and both teams are pumped up. This fighting thing started with the Nidahas Trophy and the Cobra Dance. Recently Sri Lankan fans have shown some respect towards Bangladeshi players because of Towhid Hridoy.

Anyway, I was surprised that Even though Anamul Haque Bijoy was included in the squad because of Liton Das' Injury, Mohammad Naim was the first-choice of the team management. What are they trying to do with these players?

[cozytrade]

The batsmen of the Bangladesh team are struggling to get out of the pressure of the Sri Lankan bowlers. Even after passing 31 overs of the first innings, the batsmen of the Bangladesh team could not control the game. Bangladesh team has lost 5 important wickets so far. Due to the fall of 5 important wickets, the fans of the Bangladesh team were completely distraught. Bangladesh team is batting very slowly now. The game looks like the Bangladesh team will fail to score 200 runs. Bangladesh team score so far 127-5(32.4)

The partnership between Shanto and Hridoy is very important to set a good 250-plus target for Sirlanka.

The current situation of play is not very good with 5 wickets falling for Bangladesh so far. They are more backward in terms of runs. Currently on the pitch Najmul Hossain Shanto of Bangladesh team who is in very good form. Najmul Hossain Shanto scored 67 runs out of total runs of 127 in this match. However, Tanzid Hasan did not perform as expected as the opening batsman. On the other hand, the captain of the team Shakib Al Hasan is also not in form. He left the field after scoring only 5 runs. In this situation, it can be easily assumed that the position is not good for the Bangladesh team. On the other hand Sri Lankan bowlers have to be praised. Their shrewd bowling line has favored them.

[Nothingtodo]

No batsman could make a long partnership today except Bangladesh's only batsman Nazmul Hasan Shanto. If any batsman of Bangladesh could have made a big partnership with Nazmul Hasan Shanto then maybe Bangladesh's run could have been more than 250 runs. For now, Bangladesh has lost six important wickets out of 161 runs. Do you think Bangladesh's run can be 250?

The Bangladesh batsmen were under a lot of pressure from the start and the later period and the game could not bring them under control. Due to which they could not score much runs in today's match, currently Bangladesh batsmen have lost 8 important wickets. Bangladesh are struggling to score batsman runs due to the fall of consecutive wickets, Sri Lanka's bowlers bowled brilliantly today which allowed them to keep wickets falling. Bangladesh have no wickets to catch now and it looks like they will be all out very soon. So far they have collected 163 runs in 42 overs with the loss of 8 wickets, which is unlikely for Bangladesh to win.

Nazmul Hasan, the most dependable batsman of Bangladesh, got out quietly with a personal 89 runs.
I don't think that Bangladesh will be able to score 200 runs in today's match.

Sorry to say BD all-out only for 164...

Bangladesh's batting performed very poorly today, getting all out for just 164 runs. Today in the match Nazmul Hossain Shanto he is the only player to score a half century and got out with 89 runs just missing the century by 11 runs. No other batsman of Bangladesh could play well. Today Sri Lanka bowled well, Matheesha Pathirana he took 4 wickets alone, Maheesh Theekshana took 2 wickets. Sri Lanka will have to bat with a target of just 165 runs to win, which Sri Lanka can easily win. I think Sri Lanka can win before 30 overs today.
