Bangladeshi spinners, on the other, couldn't make much impact in the game, and that was one of the reasons why the team wasn't able to bundle out the home side under 200 runs after dismissing Sri Lanka's top order early.

As has been the case with scores at the R. Premadasa Stadium, Sri Lanka were able to fight their way to 244 runs, which proved to be enough with the number of regular and part-time spinners they had.

The same story is expected to be repeated in the second game to be played at the same venue that hosted the first game.

The team that wins the toss will once again opt to bat first like Sri Lanka did in the opening game of the series.

Premadasa Stadium has hosted 177 ODI games, 97 of which have been won while batting first, whereas 68 matches have been won by the chasing team.

Bangladesh is going through a period of transition, with a lot of young players looking to make a mark

Bangladesh's management would want their batters to take more responsibility, especially in the middle overs, as that is the phase where the majority of the games are won or lost.

Having said the coach and the captain would be happy with the way their bowlers restricted Sri Lanka to a chaseable total.

If we talk about Sri Lanka, the former World Cup winners have been able to string a strong core in the last year or so, which is evident in the way they have been able to win matches in difficult situations.

The home team would want to continue their winning run at home, having not lost an ODI series since September 2021.

Conclusion

Sri Lanka will look to keep their ODI record at home in check courtesy of a win in the second ODI, by which the Charith Asalanka-led side would register another series win.

As far as Bangladesh is concerned, the Mehidy Hasan Miraz-led side would like to keep the series alive by winning the second game.
