Asia Cup: Shanaka's Attacking 64* Helps Sri Lanka Post 168/7 In Super 4s Opener Vs Bangladesh
Dubai International Cricket Stadium: A brilliant counter-attacking half-century by Dasun Shanaka helped Sri Lanka recover from a precarious position to reach a challenging 168/7 in 20 overs against Bangladesh in the opening match of the Super 4 stage of the Men's T20 Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium here on Saturday.
It was a riveting contest as Sri Lanka started at a brisk pace, but were pulled back by the loss of four quick wickets before Shanaka got into the act and hauled them to a defendable total. The former Sri Lanka skipper stormed to his half-century off 30 balls and helped the team to set a stiff target for Bangladesh, when the average total in this event has been 150.
For Bangladesh, Mustafizur Rahman came back strongly to claim three wickets for 20 runs, two of them in the penultimate over, while Mahedi Hasan bagged 2-25 in the first half of the innings.
