We are into Day 3 of Angelo Mathews’ farewell Test and Sri Lanka are under the pump. On the back of two superb hundreds from Bangladesh captain Najmul Hossain Shanto (148) and Mushfiqur Rahim (168), the visitors hammered 495/10 after opting to bat first. They could’ve easily scored 500+, but rain interruptions and spicy Sri Lankan pace bowling proved threatening at the end. While the Galle surface was expected to be spin-friendly, it turned out that the Lankan pacers took seven of the ten wickets in the first innings. Can the Bangladeshi pacers, including dangerous Nahid Rana, give it back to the Lankan? Catch this and more below.
