OUT! Caught. Lasith Malinga to Mustafizur Rahman. Slower length ball, outside off stump backing away driving, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep extra cover, by Perera. Malinga with the last wicket and his last wicket in his ODI career! What a way to finish an illustrious career. That wicket gives Sri Lanka the win and a winning start to the series. Bangladesh had resurgence in the middle phase of their innings, but it wasn't enough for them to get over the line and missed the target by a lot of runs. The man of the moment Malinga picks up three wickets, rolling back the years in Colombo.
