The second Youth One Day International (ODI) between Sri Lanka Under-19 and the touring Bangladesh Under-19 Team will be played at the Dambulla Stadium today.

Sri Lanka have already taken a 1-0 lead in the five-match series by claiming the after ODI by 42 runs on Friday at the same venue and are expected to maintain the same momentum. However, the Sri Lankan top order will look for an improved performance after they failed to click well before they were rescued by Pawan Pathiraja, Sadisha Rajapaksa and Raveen de Silva in the first ODI.

Meanwhile, Bangladesh will be determined to make a comeback after their batsmen struggled to play some quality spin bowling from the home side.

Aich Mollah is in good form after stroking a fine 83 in 93 balls in the first ODI but a lot will be expected from the rest of their batting. Sri Lanka’s spin attack will be spearheaded by Skipper Dunith Wellalage, Shevon Daniel and Trevin Mathews with all keen to continue their outstanding form.
