You lost once in 2014 and then last year they had you at 1-1 before you won 2-1 in the final game. And even then they messed up the first game. Struggling against Afghanistan at home... You win in 2 Tests, bringing you tally to a massive 9 wins in your history (we won as many games in one calendar year ) and now failure against England, smashed vs NZ and now failed to win against SL. Maybe leave the bragging and the ''we're the best'' nonsense till your team actually shows more consistency. Which, trust me, they will. They have massive talent, but the supporters of BD are absolutely unbearable.

We are definitely improving. People need to be patient with us. Can't expect us to win every match. We won the first ODI convincingly, lost today convincingly.

It takes times for teams to start winning abroad regularly especially when you don't play abroad too much.

Important thing is our players are learning. And even our seniors barring Mashrafe have two more world cups left in them

Kusal Mendis is the Player of the Series for scoring 160 runs, including a sublime century in the second ODI.

Now you talk sense and believe me all the jokes aside i would love if BD and Afg keep improving as cricket need more and better teams.

But we all can imagine had bangla won today what would have happened.

Stay real when you win and lose cause its al part of the game. Just dont go overboard when winning a game here and there.

Drawn series away from Bangladesh,is it first against major nation? Congrats to both teams. Mendis is turning out to be the player to watch.

Mahmudullah might be dropped from ODI team as well, not playing any clutch knocks nowadays.

 

[Arsalan Pro]

Well played Srilanka,luck deprived you of a series win.

Agreed, looks out of form.

 

[aloo paratha]

Bangladesh won the first ODI by 90 runs while Sri Lanka won today by only 70 runs so I guess technically Bangladesh win the series.

What type of logic??

 

[Specialisttailender]

Bangladesh got lucky in the 1st odi when SL played inexperienced bowlers. In comes Kulasakara, Dilruwan Perera and Thisara Perera's gets over cut to just 2 and Bangladesh crumbles.
