After playing out a drab draw in the series opener, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh will face off in the second Test, starting on Wednesday at Sinhalese Sports Club Ground in Colombo.
The first Test in Galle was a run-fest, with four individual hundreds being scored and bowlers having to toil hard for wickets. Bangladesh skipper, who became the first captain from his country to score centuries in both innings of a Test match, will hope to continue his rich vein of form, along with the experienced Mushfiqur Rahim.
In the Lankan ranks, opener Pathum Nissanka, Dinesh Chandimal and Kamindu Mendis will hold the key in the absence of Angelo Mathews, who called time on his Test career in Galle.
