NEW DELHI: Charith Asalanka scored a solid 108 while opener Pathum Nissanka and Sadeera Samarawickrama made useful contributions as Sri Lanka got to 279 before bundling out in the final over against Bangladesh in a crucial Match 38 at the World Cup in the national capital on Monday.
With the contest marred by the Angelo Mathews dismissal -- who became the first international cricketer to be 'timed out' after not being ready to face the ball within two minutes of the fall of a wicket, Lankans did well to post a challenging total.
