SL vs BAN Dream11 Prediction Today – Fantasy Tips, Best Picks & Playing 11 for 2nd ODI
Hello and welcome to the Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh Dream11 Prediction, where we look at fantasy tips, pitch report, and probable playing XIs for the 2nd ODI of the Bangladesh tour of Sri Lanka 2025.
This exciting clash will take place at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.
After winning the Test series 1-0, Sri Lanka have carried that momentum into the ODI series as well.
They are already 1-0 up in the three-match ODI series and will now look to seal it with a win today.
But the big question is… Can Bangladesh bounce back, or will the Lankans finish things off early?
Sri Lanka’s batting struggled early in the last match, but skipper Charith Asalanka’s brilliant century and a crucial stand with Kusal Mendis pushed their total to 244.
That proved to be more than enough. The Sri Lankan spin attack completely choked the Bangladeshi batting.
Wanindu Hasaranga picked up 4 wickets, while Kamindu Mendis chipped in with 3, bundling out Bangladesh for just 167.
Bangladesh actually started well, especially with the ball. Taskin Ahmed and Tanzim Hasan Sakib bowled with intent and shared 7 wickets between them.
But the rest of the bowling didn’t offer much support, and the batting completely collapsed. Only Tanzid Hasan and Jaker Ali showed some fight with scores of 63 and 51 respectively, but it wasn’t enough.
Keep reading to get the best SL vs BAN Dream11 team tips and insights that can help you create a winning fantasy team for today’s match.
