Current/Forthcoming ToursAnother crushing defeat against Sri Lanka 30 June 2008 Dazzling centuries from Sanath Jayasuriya and Kumar Sangakkara powered Sri Lanka to a crushing 158-run win over hapless Bangladesh to reach the final of the Asia Cup 2008 in Karachi on Monday. On his his 39th birthday Jayasurity produced a spectacular 88-ball 130 while Sangakkara scored a polished 121 as Sri Lanka piled up a mammoth 332-8. In reply, Bangladesh had no answer to spin magician Muralitharan's doosra and succumbed to 174 in 38.3 overs. Eight Bangladesh batsmen failed to reach the double figure on a good batting track and only Rakibul Hasan showed some resistance with his second 50 of the tournament. Bangladesh will play their last match of the Asia Cup on Friday, 4 July.

Articles and FeaturesPreview - Bangladesh in Pakistan, 2007-08 : A tale of two troubled sides Bangladesh have not a won a single ODI against Test playing nations since their heroics in the World Cup 2007 in the Caribbean, and Pakistan Cricket have been hit hard by Australia’s refusal to play in the country. Now they face each other for a five match ODI series and one Twenty20. Abu Choudhury previews the hastily arranged series between the two troubled sides. “Future is important but not at the cost of present”, an interview with Habibul Bashar Habibul Bashar, Bangladesh’s most capped Test player and highest run scorer in both forms of the game, finds himself out of his country's teams for both Tests and ODIs. Yet, like his erstwhile adviser Sourav Ganguly, he has refused to call it a day. Instead he has launched a fight-back to get a recall and is scoring heavily in the domestic league. In an interview with BanglaCricket editor Khondaker Mirazur Rahman, he shares his thoughts about the fight-back, captaincy, age factor for the Tigers, Dav Whatmore and the future of Bangladesh.
