BAN vs SL, 3rd T20I: Match Prediction, Dream11 Team, Fantasy Tips & Pitch Report | Bangladesh vs Sri Lanka 2024
Najmul Hossain Shanto and Wanindu Hasaranga

Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are set to clash in the decisive third and final T20 International (T20I) of their three-match series at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Saturday, March 9. With one victory each in the previous two encounters, this match holds the key to determining the series champion.

The Islanders anticipate the return of their regular skipper Wanindu Hasaranga in this series decider. Notably, Hasaranga was sidelined for the opening two games due to a ban resulting from accumulated demerit points. The Sri Lankan team will now be banking on his stellar all-round abilities, hoping for a match-winning performance from their captain in this crucial encounter. On the other hand, entering the game with the confidence gained from their triumph in the second T20I, Bangladesh will look to repeat the magic.
