Bangladesh Vs Sri Lanka LIVE Score, U19 Asia Cup: Defending Champs Face Islanders In Group B Decider

Oh no!! Just as I was talking about Bangladesh U19 looking to build up a partnership, Beg looses his wicket. He looked to swipe it over the ropes but could not get enough power under it, and is taken extremely well by Gamage at the deep. That's his second catch for today, and Nimsara's second wicket. Kalam Siddiki is the new batter.

Hakim knocks the ball towards the offside and steals a single, and Bangladesh cross the 100-run mark in the 16th over. The Young Tigers are currently hitting at a strike rate of around six-and-half, and will be looking at a 300-plus total if they can build up another partnership.

That's the wicket that Sri Lanka U19 wanted!! Abrar falls short for a third half-century by just one run, hitting the widish delivery straight to Gamage at cover. Captain Azizul Hakim is the new batter for Bangladesh U19.

Abrar and Beg have built up a strong opening-partnership for Bangladesh U19, with the former starting to punish the loose deliveries. The Young Tigers have crossed the 50-run mark in the ninth over itself, ending the first powerplay at 75. Sri Lanka U19 need to break this pairing soon.
