Sri Lanka was closing in on victory and another test series sweep in Bangladesh after reducing the host to 268-7 in an improbable chase of a 511-run target on Tuesday.
Pacer Lahiru Kumara, left-arm spinner Prabath Jayasuriya and part-time bowler Kamindu Mendis took two wickets each to put Bangladesh in survival mode on day four of the second and last test.
Bangladesh barely forced a fifth day. At stumps, Mehidy Hasan was on 44 from 49 balls after hitting seven fours and Taijul Islam on 10.
They were 243 runs from an unlikely victory, but 511 was never on. Nobody could resist Sri Lanka’s bowling.
