Commentary

That is all for the first test match between of this two test match series. The action will resume on Saturday with the second test and we will be there to take you through all the action. For now, this is Sourabh and Mohul taking your leave. See you soon, keep following Sportskeeda!

Dhananjaya de Silva, the Sri Lankan skipper, has been adjudged the player of the match, here's what he had to say - Very happy individually and that way I performed heled the team get a win outside Sri Lanka. The wicket had a lot for the seamers and we decided to play tight, Kamindu played really well too. That is what I wanted from the number 7 batter so we can be in the driver's seat. In the second innings, there was not a lot of help for the bowlers but we decided to hit the right areas and have patience. No ideas about the conditions in Chattogram, we will have a look and then prepare accordingly.

Najmul Hossain Shanto (Bangladesh captain): The way we played, I am proud of our boys. There are a lot of things to work on, but there are positives as well. The wicket looked good. We have to improve our batting against the new ball, and in the next game, we have to come back strongly. A lot of work has to be done in the next step. We will have a plan when we go to Chittagong for the second Test. (Mominul) played an outstanding innings; we expect him to play like this and stand up for us.

MATCH SUMMARY

Sri Lanka win by 328 runs

Kamindu Mendis 164(237) | Kasun Rajitha 5/56(14)
Mominul Haque 87*(148) | Mehidy Hasan Miraz 4/74(29)

Sri Lanka have handed Bangladesh a shellacking to register their second-largest victory in terms of runs and have taken a 1-0 lead in the 2-match series. Sri Lanka have also registered their first points in the WTC 23-25 cycle.

Well, a lot of things which happen rarely were seen in this match. The Sri Lankan seamers took all the 20 wickets, only for the third time in test match history of Sri Lanka.

Not often do we see twin centuries in a test match, but we saw a pair of twin centuries with Kamindu Mendis and Dhananjaya de Silva scoring centuries in both the innings.

On the first morning, Sri Lanka won the toss and opted to bat first in cloudy conditions and it looked like it could prove to be a wrong decision when they were reduced by 47/5. But then, the tables turned and how!

Skipper Dhananjaya de Silva and Kamindu Mendis got together and stitched a mammoth partnership of 202 runs which completely fliiped the momentum of the game. Both the batters registered their individual centuries in the process as well.

Sri Lanka took the momentum into their bowling as well and helped by some poor batting, skittled out Bangladesh on 188 obtaining a 92-run lead in the first innings.

From there on, it was about driving home the advantage for Sri Lanka and they did so with centuries from the same two men again, a mammoth one of 164* from Kamindu Mendis putting this match beyond the reach of Bangladesh setting them 511 runs to win.

There was only going to be one winner from that point of time and the Bangladesh top order did not help themselves by putting up another dismal batting performance losing half their side inside 9 overs in the third evening.

Mominul Haque, who eventually ended up unbeaten on 87*, delayed the inevitable and offered some resistance in combination with the lower-order but Kasun Rajitha's 5-er acted like a cherry on top for the visitors and made sure that it was not long before Sri Lanka registered a thoroughly dominant and comprehensive win.

49.2 Lahiru Kumara to Nahid Rana, THAT WILL BE THAT! SRI LANKA WIN THIS GAME BY 328 RUNS! Harsh bumper on off and middle, comes back in. Rana tries to work it away to the on side but gets rapped on the gloves. The ball goes high up in the air and is taken quite comfortably by the fielder at second slip, Dhananjaya de Silva! That will be that for Bangladesh. Haque remains unbeaten on 87 at the other end!

Nahid Rana c Dhananjaya de Silva b Lahiru Kumara 0 (8b, 0x4, 0x6).

49.1 Lahiru Kumara to Nahid Rana, BUMPER on middle and leg! Rana ducks under it and lets it go through to the keeper.

Lahiru Kumara [11.0-1-39-1] is back into the attack.

No single off the last ball again and that means Rana will be on strike yet again. Mominul has batted really well but some of his tactics of playing with the tail have been dicey, to say the least. Also, it is time for a drinks break!

48.6 Prabath Jayasuriya to Mominul Haque, tossed up on the pads. Haque flicks it towards square leg off the crease. No run taken.

48.5 Prabath Jayasuriya to Mominul Haque, FOUR! POOR DELIVERY PUNISHED! Drifts down the legside. Haque manages to paddle it up and over short fine leg for a boundary!

Around the wicket now

48.4 Prabath Jayasuriya to Mominul Haque, fired in on off and middle. Haque comes forward and defends it nicely.

48.3 Prabath Jayasuriya to Mominul Haque, drifts down the legside. Haque tries to play the paddle and gets it off Mendis' gloves towards short fine leg.

48.2 Prabath Jayasuriya to Mominul Haque, tossed up outside off, turns back in. Haque eases it to long on and does not take the run.

48.1 Prabath Jayasuriya to Mominul Haque, floated on middle and leg, turns back in. Haque works it towards midwicket.

So, Rana does manage to survive the entire over from Rajitha. The bowler can be given a lot of credit for that as he slipped half the over down the leg side and made it easy for the batter.
