If the Sri Lankan team lands on the home ground for the two-match Test cricket series against Bangladesh today, then they will try to win this match after a long time. Sri Lanka had achieved the last success in January 2020 and coach Mickey Arthur would like his team to finish this Test match of the series with a win-win situation.

The Sri Lankan team played six Test matches after January 2020 and despite being in a better position in most matches, the team failed to register a win. After their 2–0 defeat on the South Africa tour, they had to face defeat by the same margin in the previous series against England at home ground. After this, both teams of the team were drawing on the tour of the West Indies.

Arthur, the coach of the team said, "We have missed many chances to win in the last few times. In the moments of pressure, we need to show our better game as well as maintain control over the opposing team by constantly pressurizing them during the match." Will happen."

Bangladesh team in bad form

Bangladesh's team has struggled in recent times. They suffered a defeat in the home series against the West Indies, while the team also lost all matches on the tour of New Zealand. The team will not get the services of top players like all-rounder Shakib Al-Hasan and fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman, who are currently participating in the Indian Premier League.

Bangladesh captain Mominul Haque said that Sri Lanka's team is very strong on the home ground, winning against them will be a big challenge for us. We have to deal with this challenge for the best results.
