2nd ODI: Bangladesh facing Sri Lankan bowlers

With a hope to secure the series, Bangladesh are now facing Sri Lankan bowlers in the second of a three-match ODI series at Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in the capital on Tuesday.

Earlier in the day, skipper Tamim Iqbal elected to bat first after winning the toss.

However, both teams are eyeing the series win to move up the ICC Cricket World Cup Super League table.

The host country have handed a debut to Shoriful Islam, by leaving out Taskin Ahmed and Mosaddek Hossain replaces Mohammad Mithun. Sri Lanka are unchanged.

The Tigers are currently 1-0 up in the series after winning the opening game by 33 runs that also ended their 10-match winless streak across format on Sunday.

Bangladesh: 1 Tamim Iqbal (capt), 2 Liton Das, 3 Shakib Al Hasan, 4 Mushfiqur Rahim (wk), 5 Mosaddek Hossain, 6 Mahmudullah, 7 Afif Hossain, 8 Mohammad Saifuddin, 9 Mehidy Hasan, 10 Shoriful Islam, 11 Mustafizur Rahman

Sri Lanka: 1 Danushka Gunathilaka, 2 Kusal Perera (capt & wk), 3 Pathum Nissanka, 4 Kusal Mendis, 5 Dhananjaya de Silva, 6 Ashen Banara, 7 Dasun Shanaka, 8 Wanindu Hasaranga, 9 Isuru Udana, 10 Lakshan Sandakan, 11 Dushmantha Chameera

The last ODI is slated to be played on May 28.

Sri Lanka and Bangladesh recently played a two-match Test series, which was won by the former. Sri Lanka had defeated Bangladesh by 209 runs in the second Test, while the first ended in a draw.
