Toss and teams: 

The second Test between Sri Lanka and Bangladesh has begun with the away side winning the toss and electing to bat first. Bangladesh made two changes as they brought in Sabbir Rahman and Abdur Razzak in place of Mossadek Hossain and Sunzamul Islam. This is Razzak's first Test since 2014, exactly 4 years ago.

Meanwhile Sri Lanka made two changes as they brought in Akila Dhananjaya and Danushka Gunathilaka.

Razzak strikes!

In his 3rd over itself, the veteran struck as he took the wicket Karunaratne, stumping him with his trickery. Like they say, class never dies! Sri Lanka are batting at 28/1 after 8.1 overs.

Taijul scalps Dananjaya 

And the second wicket of the day has been picked by another slow left-arm bowler Taijul Islam. After the loss of Karunaratne, Sri Lanka countered very well with Kusal Mendis on the attack. However, Taijul Islam broke the partnership by taking the wicket of Dananjaya de Silva. Sri Lanka are currently batting at 66 for 2 after 19 overs. 

Kusal Mendis is on 41 and Danushka Gunathilaka is on 2.

The tempest of Razzak

Why did Bangladesh not play him in the first test?! I mean, wow! This man is on fire. Nobody can guess that he is playing his first Test in four years. Picking up Danushka Gunathilaka and captain Dinesh Chandimal in consecutive deliveries, Razzak has disrupted the top-order of the Lankans. His bowling figures now stand at 24 for 3 after 7 overs as Sri Lanka find themselves in a bit of bother going to lunch at 105/4. 

Kusal Mendis is batting at 64 while Roshen Silva is at 5. 

Post-lunch fury

Man, what is Razzak on? It doesn't feel like he hasn't played for 4 years, rather it is as though he played in an alien land for those years in order to return at his best. In only the second ball of the session, the set Kusal Mendis' stumps were cleaned up by the veteran for 69. Niroshan Dickwella came next, but couldn't last long as Taijul Islam cleaned him up for just a run. 

Sri Lanka are now batting at 117 for 6 with Roshen Silva and Dilruwan Perera on the crease. 

Sabbir's mistake allows Sri Lanka to crawl back

Dilruwan Perera was batting at 18 when he edged Mustafizur's delivery to the slip. Sabbir Rahman, brought into the team to mainly negate the absence of a proper slip fielder, saw the ball coming with eyes popped up...but he dropped it. And now, Dilruwan is batting at 30 while he is being brilliantly supported by Roshen Silva on the other end with 24 runs to his name. 

Sri Lanka are at 159/6. 

Taijul strikes, but SL hold on

Just when Dilruwan Perera was looking like the danger man, Taijul Islam got his wicket as he departed for 31. In came Akila Dhananjaya to replace him, and he has done well so far in supporting the free-batting Roshen Silva. While the latter is at 45, the former is batting on 20 as Sri Lanka have crossed the 200 barrier and are now at 205 after 7 wickets.
