Sri Lanka will tour Bangladesh for an all-format tour which starts with the 1st T20I on 4th March.
Bangladesh and Sri Lanka last played a bilateral T20I series against each other in 2018 when Sri Lanka won the 2-match series in Bangladesh. Bangladesh has never won a T20I series against Sri Lanka and they have played four T20I series so far out of which Sri Lanka won thrice and one series was drawn.
The upcoming 3-match series will kick-off with the 1st T20I on 4th March at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium in Sylhet. Najmul Hossain Shanto will lead the home side.
BAN and SL have played 13 T20Is against each other out of which the latter has the upper-hand with 9 wins while Bangladesh has managed to win on 4 occasions.
The upcoming series will take place in Bangladesh where these two have faced each other 5 times in which Sri Lanka dominates with 4 wins.

Najmul Hossain Shanto, Mohammad Naim, Towhid Hridoy, Soumya Sarkar, Mahedi Hasan, Mahmudullah, Litton Das, Anamul Haque, Taijul Islam, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman, Shoriful Islam, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Aliss Islam
Litton Das has scored 1711 runs in 74 T20I matches at an impressive strike rate of 130.41. He has played 59 runs so far in 3 matches at a strike rate of 155.26. He was little out of form in the BPL but we expect him to bounce back in this series at home.
Hridoy was among the highest run scorers of the season in BPL 2024. He scored around 450 runs in just one season with a strike rate around 150. He looked in brilliant form lately and we expect him to score big in the T20 series.
Mustafizur has picked 105 wickets in 88 T20I matches out of which 12 wickets in 9 matches have come against Sri Lanka. He will lead the pace attack for BAN in this series.
Shoriful Islam also had a brilliant season at BPL 2024. His team could not proceed to the playoffs but he finished with 22 wickets in 12 matches at an average of 15.86.

It has been a long while since these two teams have faced each other in a T20I series. This will be an interesting series as home team Bangladesh has certainly levelled up in the last 4-5 years and now the team possess some of the finest T20 talent in the country.
Sri Lanka certainly has the upper-hand in the head to head T20 record in Bangladesh but this time they will face a totally different squad. Bangladesh will be coming off from a fiery BPL season and the players will be pumped to play international T20 cricket after that.
According to our analysis, we are backing Bangladesh to win the T20I series against Sri Lanka.
Bangladesh and Sri Lanka will start the 3-match ODI series with the 1st match at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on 13th March 2024.
The last time BAN and SL faced each other in an ODI series was in 2021 when the hosts Bangladesh defeated Sri Lanka by 2-1 in a 3-match ODI series. It was the first ever ODI series win for Bangladesh against Sri Lanka.
In the head to head ODI record, Sri Lanka has the upper-hand with 42 wins in 54 ODIs while Bangladesh has won 10 times.
They have faced each other 20 times in ODIs in Bangladesh in which Sri Lanka has the edge with 14 wins while remaining 6 matches were won by Bangladesh.

Najmul Hossain Shanto, Soumya Sarkar, Tanzid Hasan, Towhid Hridoy, Mahmudullah, Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Anamul Haque, Litton Das, Mushfiqur Rahim, Taijul Islam, Rishad Hossain, Taskin Ahmed, Shoriful Islam, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Mustafizur Rahman
Shanto has been given the responsibility to lead the team in all formats for this series. He has accumulated 1202 runs in 42 ODIs at an average of 30.82. We expect a good run from him in this series.
Mehidy Hasan Miraz will be the top all-rounder for the team in the absence of Shakib Al Hasan. In 94 ODIs, Mehidy Hasan has scored 1294 runs and picked 102 wickets with an impressive economy of 4.85.
Taskin Ahmed will be the leading pacer for the team in this ODI series. Taskin has picked 95 wickets in 70 ODIs. He has a good record against Sri Lanka, picking 14 wickets in 10 ODI matches with an economy of 5.51.
Taijul Islam also had a decent BPL season with 9 wickets in 6 innings. In the ODI career, Taijul has picked 30 wickets in 18 matches and this will be his first experience against the Sri Lankan line-up.
Yet to be announced.
Bangladesh has defeated Sri Lanka in the ODI series in 2021 and they are definitely a better squad than before. Sri Lanka has a huge edge over Bangladesh in the ODI head to head record but Bangladesh might look forward to closing that gap with this series.
The Bangladesh ODI squad will miss the services of their star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan but the team still looks strong enough to pull off another series win against Sri Lanka in the ODIs.
We are backing Bangladesh to win the ODI series against Sri Lanka.
