Khettarama mein pehla ODI match ek aise dramatic collapse ka gawaah bana jo ODI history ke sabse worst collapses mein se ek tha. Bangladesh, jo ek point par 100 for 1 par khada tha, sirf 15 minutes mein 105 for 8 tak gir gaya – sirf 20 balls ke andar 7 wickets gir gaye. Ye collapse Sri Lanka ke spinners Wanindu Hasaranga aur Kamindu Mendis ki bowling brilliance ki wajah se hua.

Hasaranga ne 4 for 10 liye, jabke Kamindu ne 3 wickets le kar batting line-up ko demolish kar diya. Kamindu ki khaas baat ye hai ke woh dono left-arm orthodox aur right-arm offbreak bowling karte hain, making him a rare double threat. Fielding bhi top-notch rahi – Milan Rathnayake ke direct throw aur Janith Liyanage ke diving catch ne collapse ko ignite kiya.

Sri Lanka’s Batting Effort:

Sri Lanka ne batting ka decision le kar 49.2 overs mein 244 runs banaye, jismein captain Charith Asalanka ki century (106 off 123) sab se outstanding thi. Unki ye 5th ODI century thi aur as captain dusri dafa triple figures cross kiye. Kusal Mendis ne bhi 45 runs banaye, jabke Rathnayake aur Hasaranga ne lower-order partnerships se innings ko stabilize kiya.

Taskin Ahmed ne comeback match mein 4 wickets liye, aur Tanzim Hasan Sakib ne bhi 3 breakthroughs diye. Debutant Tanvir Islam ne Mendis ko lbw kiya for 45, slowing Sri Lanka’s progress.

Bangladesh ki innings Tanzid Hasan aur Najmul Hossain Shanto ke 71-run stand ke saath achi lag rahi thi. Tanzid ne 62 off 61 balls banaye (9 fours, 1 six), lekin Shanto ke run-out ke baad sab kuch downhill chala gaya.

Litton Das Hasaranga ki doosri ball par lbw out hue without scoring – unka ye 8th consecutive ODI failure tha. Phir Tanzid bhi ek poor shot khel gaye, aur unka catch Liyanage ne spectacular fashion mein liya.

Kamindu ne Towhid Hridoy ko unplayable left-arm delivery pe out kiya, aur phir Mehidy Hasan Miraz Hasaranga ki googly pe lbw hue for a duck. Kamindu ne phir apni bowling style switch ki aur Taskin ko offbreak pe lbw kar diya.

Jaker Ali ki 51-run knock (4 sixes, 4 fours) ne margin of defeat ko thoda reduce kiya, magar damage already ho chuka tha.

Asalanka Holds Firm:

Sri Lanka ki innings ke anchor bane Asalanka, jab unki team 29 for 3 pe struggle kar rahi thi. Unka calm presence aur calculated hitting ne unhe Premadasa Stadium mein apna 4th century dilaya, jahan woh ab Jayasuriya, Kohli, aur Tendulkar ke alongside khare hain – all with 4 centuries at the venue.

Unka knock unki team ko ek competitive score tak le aaya, aur jab bowling ki baari aayi, unki leadership ne Bangladesh ko dismantle kar diya.
