Sanath Jayasuria took the game away from Bangladesh

Sanath Jayasuria took the game away from Bangladesh with his blinding innings of 130 runs from just 88 balls and ensured the final of this Asia cup beating Bangladesh by 158 runs.

Winning the toss Sri Lanka got a dreamy start by their two openers with over two hundred runs partnership from just 27 over. Sanath made the 6^th quickest hundred of ODI history and another opener Sangakara made 121 from 128 run. But Bangladesh came back well at the end of Lankan innings. They managed to score 332/8 in their allocated 50 over while they were looking for something around 360 to 400.

Chasing a huge total of 333 Bangladesh started very well maintaining their run rate 5.7 with some awesome batting of Nazimuddin and Raqibul Hasan. Raqibul made 52 and Nazim made 47 for Bangladesh and they were all out at just 174 while Murali has done some devastating bowling taking 5 wickets another time.
