In the 2nd game, the Sri Lanka A were cruising towards 270+ total as a strong 4th wicket partnership put them at 158/3 in 34th over. Some tight bowling towards the end by Bangladesh A saw the hosts limited to just 226/9. Contributions from the top-order saw the visitors placed at 178/3 by 40th over. Some late strikes from the Sri Lankans spiced the game which ended on the last ball after Bangladesh A were 9 down.
