Having beaten Bangladesh during the group stages, Sri Lanka are eying for a double against the Litton Das-led side when they meet in the Super 4 clash of the Asia Cup 2025 on Saturday in Dubai. Led by Charith Asalanka, Sri Lanka have been the one of the dominant sides in this edition of the continental showpiece with an all-win record. On the other hand, Bangladesh’s only loss so far came against Sri Lanka.
In fact, Bangladesh’s place in the Super 4 was aided by the Lankans after the Islanders beat Afghanistan in the final Group B encounter. Meanwhile, Dunith Wellalage will be available for selection against Bangladesh, after the Sri Lankan spinner had to rush home following his father’s demise.
Wellalage’s father died of heart attack while Sri Lanka was playing against Afghanistan. The spinner, who was hit for five sixes by Mohammad Nabi in the final over of the Afghanistan innings, was told of his father’s death after the conclusion of the match by head coach Sanath Jayasuriya.
