Mirpur: Bangladesh's three seniors cricketers came to the fore to deliver, and handed Sri Lanka a 163-run defeat, in a tri-series match here on Friday. This was Bangladesh's biggest win in one-day Internationals. Sri Lanka failed miserably to cope, with a daunting target of 321 looming and lasted just 32.2 overs. Bangladesh, scoring 320 for 7, then bowled out the visitors for 157. Tamim Iqbal (84), Shakib-al Hassan (67) and Mushfiqur Rahim (62) starred for the hosts.
