Bangladesh v Sri Lanka 1st Test, Mirpur

Mirpur: After the fog, which had blighted their preparation on the tour so far, relented, the Sri Lankans got themselves some useful batting practice on the final day against a Bangladesh Cricket Board XI in Savar.

Sri Lanka captain Mahela Jayawardene hopes his deputy Kumar Sangakara will be ready to solve their top order batting woes when they face Bangladesh in the first Test in Mirpur starting on Friday. Sangakkara had a cut in his right foot and was struggling to wear shoes since Sri Lanka arrived in Dhaka last week to play the two-match Test series and a tri-nation One-day tournament involving Zimbabwe and hosts Bangladesh. Wicket keeper batsman also missed Sri Lanka's only warm-up game against Bangladesh Cricket Board XI.
