BAN vs SL Match Analysis
It’s possible that you missed last week’s inaugural Test between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka because the Indian Premier League has taken over all cricket-related news worldwide. However, a match with three low-scoring innings and one dominant, and ultimately winning, innings captured the attention of red ball and Test supporters.
Bangladesh assembled a young side with an eye toward the future, and some far more seasoned players from Sri Lanka thoroughly taught the inexperienced group in the art of playing Test cricket. In Chattogram, will everything continue to be the same? We anticipate a more competitive match.
BAN vs SL Team Preview & Squads
Bangladesh
Nahid Rana made his debut for the hosts in Sylhet, and after taking five wickets while giving up more than two hundred runs, he will be hoping to hold onto his spot for this Second Test. Before this game, Bangladesh will be hoping that they have learned from their mistakes, especially when it comes to the bat. Additionally, the home team management will be aiming for more than the team’s lone half-century from the first Test of the series on a wicket that is predicted to be more of a turner.
With the ball, spinning all-rounder Mehidy Hasan Miraz, who entered this match after taking four wickets in the second innings in Sylhet, will be a formidable opponent for Shoriful Islam, who will be looking to bring his white ball form into the Test arena.
Bangladesh Squads
Bangladesh
Najmul Hossain Shanto (c), Litton Das (wk), Zakir Hasan, Taijul Islam, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Shahadat Hossain, Shoriful Islam, Mominul Haque, Khaled Ahmed, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Nahid Rana
Sri Lanka
Following their resounding victory in Sylhet, Sri Lankan supporters and team management will be calling for “more of the same” going into this match. However, the visitors in Chattogram would be without Kasun Rajitha, who injured his back during play in the first Test. Asitha Fernando is expected to replace Rajitha with an otherwise unaltered starting lineup.
Dhananjaya de Silva, the captain of Sri Lanka, and Kamindu Mendis, who both scored hundreds in the game’s first and third innings, are two players who will undoubtedly be on the field! The only other Sri Lankan player to get a half-century was opener Dimuth Karunaratne, who is expected to score well in this game due to his strong and reliable Test cricket record.
Sri Lanka Squads
Sri Lanka
Dhanajaya de Silva (c), Kusal Mendis (wk), Dimuth Karunaratne, Dinesh Chandimal, Prabath Jayasuriya, Kamindu Mendis, Kasun Rajitha, Angelo Mathews, Vishwa Fernando, Nishan Madushka, Lahiru Kumara

BAN vs SL outfield report
Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram
Most commentators anticipate that as the Test goes on, this pitch will turn from ball one and become increasingly spin-friendly. Therefore, if either captain decided to field first in Chattogram, it would come as a great shock. From the first to the fifth day of this test, the anticipated conditions are typical for Chattogram. It will be over 31 degrees from sunrise to sunset with a mix of cloudy and sunny intervals, but no rain is predicted.
On the other hand, it will be an intense workout in the middle, with humidity levels expected to reach above 80% during the entire competition. Chattogram’s pitch always turns! Knowing that batting will not get any easier as the game goes on, whoever bats first will aim to reach 350. We anticipate a low bounce and a turn that is not always quick but gets bigger as the game goes on.
