SL vs BAN Weather Report-Pitch Report Of R.Premadasa Stadium, Colombo- 3rd T20I, Bangladesh Tour of Sri Lanka 2025:

SL vs BAN R.Premadasa Stadium Pitch Report:
The surface at the R.Premadasa Stadium has been a good batting wicket where teams prefer to chase, which is evident by the fact that 34 out of the 57 games have been won by the team that bats second.
Having said that that the R.Premadasa Stadium, like other grounds in Sri Lanka, hasn't been a high-scoring venue as per the modern standards, with the average first innings total being 142.
One of the reasons for the above-mentioned fact is that the pitch at this venue tends to assist the spinners, which has been the case with the majority of the grounds in Sri Lanka.
However, if the batters give themselves a couple of overs to assess the behaviour, pitch batting gets easier as the innings progresses.
The team that bats first in the upcoming match will look to score 170-180 runs in order to challenge the opposition.
The third T20I promises to be a hard-fought contest between bat and ball, considering how things have panned out in the first two games, with Sri Lanka winning the first game and Bangladesh making a strong comeback in the second match.
If we look at the resources that both teams have at their disposal, it is difficult to say who has an upper hand before the decider.
Having said that, Sri Lanka knows how to win a do-or-die game in a series, as that's what they did in the ODI series when the Charith Asalanka-led side outplayed the visitors in all three departments in the final game of the series.
Bangladesh, on the other hand, would take confidence from the fact that the Litton Das-led side registered a commanding victory in the previous game and would like to replicate the same performance to end the tour with a series win.
Conclusion
Sri Lanka will look to win the three-match T20I series against Bangladesh, having won one out of the last four bilateral series in this particular format.
As far as Bangladesh is concerned, the young team is on the verge of creating history as a win in the third T20I would give them their first-ever series win in Sri Lanka in any format of the game.
