Bangladesh win toss, bat in 2nd Test against Sri Lanka

Bangladesh won the toss and chose to bat in the second and final Test against Sri Lanka in the Dhaka Test on Monday.

After a stalemate in the opening Test, the action moved to Dhaka at the Shere Bangla National Stadium for the second and final one. 

In the Chattogram Test, the Tigers had the advantage for most parts of the game but could not force the issue as the pitch did not break up enough for their spinners. 

They had the Lankans in trouble on the final day but a defiant partnership between Dinesh Chandimal and Niroshan Dickwella saw the visitors to a draw. 

Meanwhile, the hosts have injury concerns as two of their bowlers - Shoriful Islam and Nayeem Hasan have been ruled out of this game. And an even bigger worry is the form of their skipper Mominul Haque who has just one half-century in his last 13 innings.

Bangladesh Playing XI: Tamim Iqbal, Mahmudul Hasan Joy, Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mominul Haque(c), Mushfiqur Rahim, Litton Das(w), Shakib Al Hasan, Mosaddek Hossain, Taijul Islam, Khaled Ahmed, Ebadot Hossain.

Sri Lanka Playing XI: Oshada Fernando, Dimuth Karunaratne(c), Kusal Mendis, Angelo Mathews, Dhananjaya de Silva, Dinesh Chandimal, Niroshan Dickwella(w), Ramesh Mendis, Praveen Jayawickrama, Asitha Fernando, Kasun Rajitha.
