Bangladesh performed much better in 1st test as compared to 2nd test match and 
shown to the world that they can become one of the best team of world and in 
that test match Bangladesh gave quite tough time to Sri Lanka. Although Sri 
Lanka set a quite big total of 520 for Bengal tigers, to chase in the first 
match, the way Bangladesh carried on its struggle against strong bowling line 
of Sri Lanka was remarkable, and they reached very near to target. 
Unfortunately they didn't make it to win the match.

Bangladesh made records runs in 2nd innings of the 1st test match and made 
public stunned with their performance. In 2nd test, Bengal tiger could not 
perform with consistency and could not revise their previous match performance.

It was 59th test match of Bangladesh and out of these 59 tests matches they 
have only won one match since 2000. Sri Lanka achieved their biggest victory of 
465 runs in 2nd test match against Bangladesh and won the series by 2-0. In 2nd 
and final test match T.Dilshan of Sri Lanka performed superb and helped his 
team to achieve one of the biggest victory in 182 Sri Lanka's played matches. 
Bangladesh is under high pressure for his test status due to their continuously 
deafeats in test cricket as there have been 59 matches played since 2000 and 
they have won only one match.

On the 4th day of  2nd test match, Sri Lanka started its incomplete innings at 
296 for 4, Samaraweera made only 5 runs and was out on a total of 77 runs. 
T.Dilshan played fabulous innings and made 143 runs and with this achievement 
,he achieved another hallmark, making century in both innings of a test match 
and became 4th Sri Lankan player to achieve this mile stone. Kapugedera and 
Vass remained 'not-out' on 59 and 20 runs respectively. Sri Lanka declared the 
innings at 447 for 6 in 127 overs and set a  target of 624 for Bangladesh to 
achieve.

Bengal Tigers were all out in 49.2 overs after making 158 runs. T. Dilshan 
created 'a lot of trouble' with his magical bowling by taking 4 wickets for 10 
runs only. Mendis also gave tough time to opposition and picked up 3 wickets 
for 57 runs and got overall 7 wicket in 2nd test match.

Bangladesh should develop a habit of performing well irrespective of winning or 
losing and they should do their best to achieve consistency in their 
performance in 1st test against Sri Lanka but could not keep that momentum in 
2nd test.

Now, Bangladesh has to play one day internationals against Sri Lanka and then 
against Pakistan and they need to make hard effort to tackle these worlds 
strong cricket teams and should develop a habit of do or die.
