Bangladesh struggled to get going at any time during their innings. A 59-run stand between Najmul Hossain Shanto and Towhid Hridoy provided the majority of their runs.
The only Bangladesh batter to get going was Najmul Hassan Shanto. Bangladesh were all out for 164 when he was removed on 89 from 122 balls.
However, it was not an easy pursuit for Sri Lanka. They lost a number of wickets early in their innings before Samarawickrama and Asalanka put on a 78-run stand for the fourth wicket. Samarawickrama was dismissed for 54 off 77 balls.
Asalanka kept on and bagged his eighth ODI fifty.
Asalanka scored the winning runs with a boundary..
