Player of the MatchNajmul Hossain Shanto
Right then, that is it from this emphatic Test match where both teams tried their best but could not force a result, and this series goes to the final Test. The second Test is scheduled to start on 25th June at 4.30 am GMT, but as you know, you can always join us early for all the build-up to the game. Until then, cheers and goodbye!
Dhananjaya de Silva, the skipper of Sri Lanka, feels they lost their grip in the first innings as they leaked too many runs. Tells that the bowlers tried their best, but the wicket was too flat, and credits Shanto and Rahim, who batted brilliantly. Admits the spinners had their plans, but the opposition soaked up the pressure really well. On Angelo Mathews, DDS says it is a sad day when a legend like Mathews leaves, but they have to move forward.
Najmul Hossain Shanto, the captain of Bangladesh, is also the PLAYER OF THE MATCH for his twin tons in both innings. He says he is happy to contribute to the team. Tells before this series against Zimbabwe, they were underconfident, but the preparations before this series were brilliant. Tells he was thinking of declaring a bit earlier on the last day, but the rain arrived and he had to change his plans.
Presentation Time...
Angelo Mathews, the man of the moment says he can't believe the love he received since announcing his retirement. Tells there were lots of ups and downs in this journey. Adds he loves this format, but it's time to give the youngsters some chance. Credits the way Bangladesh played and appreciates Nissanka's wonderful century as well. Feels the win against England in England and whitewashing Australia in Sri Lanka are some of the best memories of his Test career. Credits the staff and players who have played with him, and is overwhelmed by the love shown throughout his journey.
This Test also marked a special occasion for Angelo Mathews, who bid farewell to the longest format in front of his home crowd in Galle. A true servant of Sri Lanka cricket, Mathews finishes his Test career with over 8000 runs at an average of around 45, including 16 centuries and 45 fifties, along with more than 30 wickets. While he didn’t get the fairy-tale finish with a win, the match ending in a draw didn’t take away from the emotional scenes and heartfelt tributes as he walked off one final time in whites, signing off from Test cricket as one of the greats of the modern Sri Lankan era. We will hear from him now.
Heading into the final day, a draw always looked the most likely outcome, and that’s exactly how it ended. Bangladesh batted with great purpose, with skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto leading the way with yet another superb century. Shadman Islam and Mushfiqur Rahim also chipped in with valuable contributions, helping set a target of 296. Sri Lanka began their chase positively but were soon pegged back as Taijul Islam struck with three crucial wickets. In the end, time ran out, and with not enough overs left to force a result, the match concluded in a hard-fought draw.
Day 4 was a gripping contest, but Bangladesh edged ahead with a solid all-round effort. After reducing Sri Lanka’s first-innings deficit to just 10 runs, thanks to Nayeem Hasan’s five-for and a collapse triggered post-Lunch, the visitors batted positively in their second innings. Shadman Islam anchored the innings with a composed 76, sharing a 68-run stand with skipper Najmul Hossain Shanto, who later brought up a fine fifty. Despite losing three wickets, Bangladesh stretched their lead to 187 by stumps, with Mushfiqur Rahim and Shanto looking settled. The game remains finely balanced, but Bangladesh held the upper hand going into the final day.
Sri Lanka dominated Day 3 with the bat, led by a superb 187 from Pathum Nissanka, which helped them cut the deficit to just 127 runs. They added 100 in the first session and accelerated further after Lunch, with support from Dinesh Chandimal and Angelo Mathews who received a guard of honour in his farewell Test but couldn’t convert his start. Bangladesh had something to cheer late in the day, as Nissanka fell in the final hour, giving them a much-needed breakthrough before stumps.
Day 2 was a game of two halves for Bangladesh. They started strong, with Mushfiqur Rahim and Litton Das building a solid stand after Najmul Hossain Shanto’s early dismissal. Litton played fluently, while Sri Lanka missed a couple of key chances. Rain interrupted a dominant second session, but the momentum flipped after the break. The pitch suddenly offered something, and Sri Lanka capitalised - Asitha Fernando removed Rahim, Litton fell for 90, and Milan Rathnayake triggered a collapse as Bangladesh tumbled from 458/4 to 484/9, losing five wickets for just 26 runs.
Day 1 was all Bangladesh as they recovered from 45/3 to finish strongly at 292/3, thanks to an unbeaten 247-run stand between Najmul Hossain Shanto and Mushfiqur Rahim. On a flat Galle pitch offering little to the bowlers, both batters, under pressure coming into the series, rose to the occasion, with Shanto scoring a captain’s ton and Rahim bringing up his fourth century against Sri Lanka. Even Prabath Jayasuriya struggled for impact as the visitors took firm control in a crucial WTC fixture.
As expected, the handshakes are done and dusted! Both captains have acknowledged that a result was out of reach, and the match ends in a draw. Bangladesh showcased plenty of quality with the bat throughout the game, putting the hosts under pressure from the outset. Sri Lanka, having played catch-up for most of the Test, will be content with the draw and will aim to bounce back with a stronger performance in the next match.

Sri Lanka will be hoping to see out through the final session and end in a draw, and take it to a decider in the second Test.

We are back for the final time in this Test match! The players are already out in the middle now. Angelo Mathews and Dinesh Chandimal are the two batters for Sri Lanka. Nayeem Hasan to start proceedings with the ball. Here we go...
... DAY 5, FINAL SESSION ...
The Lankan openers showed they are not here to defend and settle for a draw. Lahiru Udara in particular threw a couple of punches around but Taijul Islam came up with a juicy delivery to get rid of him. Pathum Nissanka, who was coming on the back of a brilliant century, gifted away his wicket in the very first over Nayeem Hasan bowled. Now, Bangladesh are right up there to do the unthinkable but with just 29 overs to go and 8 wickets away, we still feel, Sri Lanka will come up equally good. What felt like a faded day is turning out to be a thrilling one. Stay tuned for the all-important final session of the match.
What a passage of play for Bangladesh. Firstly, the skipper registered a twin century to put Bangladesh into a commanding position and declared the innings as they were running out of time (rain played a big part early on as it took out almost a couple of hours from Day 5), however, once resumption took place, Najmul Hossain Shanto took on the Lankan bowlers, scored a fine, fine century and declared just around time to give a small passage for the Bangladeshi bowlers to trouble the Lankan openers and boy they did the job.
