Bangladesh thump Sri Lanka by eight wickets, clinch T20I series 2-1

Bangladesh capped off their tour of Sri Lanka with a commanding eight-wicket win in the third and final T20I, sealing the series 2-1. A sensational spell of 4 for 11 from Mahedi Hasan restricted the hosts to 132 for 7, before a six-laden unbeaten 73 from Tanzid Hasan powered the visitors to victory with 21 balls to spare at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.

Chasing 133, Bangladesh suffered a shaky start as Parvez Hossain Emon was trapped lbw by Nuwan Thushara on the very first ball, registering his second consecutive duck. The early jitters nearly worsened when Liton Das was given out in the next over, but a successful review saved him after replays showed a yorker from Asitha Fernando was missing the stumps.
