The decider will be played on Tuesday at 3:00 PM Bangladesh time at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Kandy. Ahead of the high-stakes clash, opener Parvez Hossain Emon spoke to the media, expressing the team’s renewed confidence.
“This is a big opportunity for us,” said the left-handed opener. “If we can win tomorrow, it will be a great series victory. The confidence is coming back into the team after the last win — everyone is happy, the energy is good. We’ll try to give our best and win the match.”
Bangladesh snapped a seven-match losing streak in ODIs with the win in Colombo, and the team is now determined to build on that success. Emon emphasized the importance of consistency, especially in major fixtures.
