Final ODI against Lanka today
Saturday, 22 February 2014
The reversal of fortunes in the ongoing series against Sri Lanka with a whitewash highly likely has left the Tigers to fight to salvage some pride. The home side will get the last shot at redemption today (Saturday) in the third and final ODI of the series. The match will begin at 1pm local time at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium in Mirpur. The news of Shakib Al Hasan’s suspension is no doubt a big blow to their chances. The allrounder has been suspended for three matches by the Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) after his inappropriate gesture on live TV in the second ODI. Two tournaments of crucial importance are around the corner. The Asia Cup starts from Feb 25 and The World Twenty20 will kick off on March 16. Saturday’s match is the last chance for the Tigers to retrieve some confidence before they go into those competitions, according to bdnews24.com.
