The clash between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh promises to be an even contest. Bangladesh have already won one match, and a win in the upcoming match will all but confirm their place in the Super 4s.

With both teams set to play Afghanistan later, they will be desperate to win this game to bolster their chances of progressing to the next round.

In recent years, the T20I rivalry between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh has been quite competitive.

Since 2016, these two teams have played 16 T20Is against each other, and each team has won eight games. In the last couple of years, Bangladesh have had the upper hand in this rivalry.

Last year, the Bangla Tigers beat Sri Lanka in the T20 World Cup before registering a series win in Sri Lanka earlier this year.

Sri Lanka will be hoping to turn things around and start their campaign with a win. Recently, they were all out for just 80 runs against Zimbabwe and will be eager to avoid a similar performance with the bat.

Sri Lanka has the advantage in their head-to-head record against Bangladesh. Out of the 20 T20Is between the two teams so far, Sri Lanka have won 12 while Bangladesh have won eight. In the last five games, Bangladesh have won three while Sri Lanka have won two.
