Bangladesh looks polite with their efforts on the ground. Mehedi raised a few eyebrows when he was selected, but nothing since he started bowling.

Which feeds Bangladesh so much against Sri Lanka that each time they lose a match, they definitely win the next one and this time they win the series after losing the first match #Slvban
