“The first two overs were a key moment for us, set the platform. It was a dream start,” said Asalanka after the match

Sri Lanka skipper Charith Asalanka said the first two overs bowled by his pacers Nuwan Thushara and Dushmantha Chameera set the platform for their Asia Cup win against Bangladesh here on Saturday.
Thushara and Chameera sent the Bangladesh openers Tanzid Hasan and Parvez Hossain Emon back to the dressing room even before they had opened their account, reducing their opponents to 0/2.
