It turned out to be a proper thriller between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh in the Super First stage of the Asia Cup 2025 in Dubai.

Mustafizur Rahman picked three wickets for 20 runs in his four overs.
In reply, the Bangladesh side chased the score down with just one delivery to spare.

Wanindu Hasaranga and Dasun Shanaka grabbed two wickets each for the Sri Lankan side. Still, they couldn't help their side as the Tigers ran away in the most toughest and tensest match of the Asia Cup 2025, where the game went down to the wire in Dubai, as Naagin Derby lived up to its expectations.

SL: 13-0 (2.0)

First over from Shoiful this round. The ball is swinging well toward the batter, with a couple of swing-and-miss moments from Kusal Mendis, ultimately, he found a massive six off Shoriful on the 4th ball of the over.

SL vs BAN Live Score: Pitch Report From Dubai
"The average first innings score here is 150, the average winning score is 171. Same pitch that was used for the Pakistan-UAE match. But it looks a bit dryer. Chasing can be easy if the dew comes in. But if pitch continues to be dry, then chasing will be difficult. 12 m difference between the boundaries on either sides," Manjrekar said from the ground.
SL vs BAN Live Updates: Team Changes📢
Bangladesh: Shoriful Islam and Mahedi Hasan replace Rishad Hossain and Nurul Hasan.
Sri Lanka: They are going with an unchanged XI from the previous game.
