Kamil Mishara (POTM): "Pathum said to me to play the normal game, take your time, do your things and take the game deep. It is a very happy feeling to be able to win a game for my team. I just believe my strength and my everything. I have worked hard for it."
Litton Das (Bangladesh Captain): "(On batting performance) Yeah, definitely. In powerplay, we thought, we lost the game. The wicket was good to bat on, 160-170 might be a different story. But 140 is not up to the mark.
Definitely, if you score 140 on a good wicket, you have to bowl well which we didn't. Yeah, it is a do-or-die. Let's see. Thanks to all the supporters. Wherever we play, they always support us. I wish, they come to watch us again."

Charith Asalanka (Sri Lanka Captain): "I think that was the key moment for us, setting the top up for us. That was a dream start for us. Two overs and two-wicket maiden overs.
That (googly) is his main weapon. Even we can't pick it sometimes. Hasaranga is a real superstar.
Once we got to 120 runs, we realised that we should finish it as soon as possible.
Absolutely brilliant support from the fans for us and for Bangladesh as well. Thanks to the fans who came here to support us."

That was a statement win if there ever was one from Sri Lanka. They thrash Bangladesh by 7 wickets and leap to second place on the points table. Bangladesh now find themselves in must-win territory, with an in-form Afghanistan side standing in their way. Even if they manage to beat them, their Super Fours hopes will still depend on other results going their way.
For now, this is Ajay Pal Singh signing off on behalf of my colleagues AkshayaKrishna Polya, Paras Yadav and Aman. Good bye!!!
