With the bat, Alok Kapali was the standout performer, scoring an unbeaten 59 off 53 balls. Muktar Ali provided useful support with 23 off 21 balls, while Mehedi Maruf added 13. However, Bangladesh Tigers struggled to maintain the required scoring rate during the chase.

Alok Kapali also contributed with 1/26, while Abul Hasan, Nazmul Hossain Milon and Mizanur Rahman picked up one wicket each. Shafiul Islam bowled economically, conceding 20 runs in four overs.
Bangladesh Tigers have enough experienced players in their squad, including Alok Kapali, Shakib Al Hasan and Rubel Hossain. After a disappointing opening result, they will need greater contributions from their top order and a stronger finish with the bat to challenge Sri Lankan Lions.
