Bangladesh ended the day 115-6 in their second innings, 96 runs behind Sri Lanka after the hosts put on a clinical spin-bowling display

Opening batter Pathum Nissanka has scored more than 150 runs in consecutive test matches as Sri Lanka strengthened its hold on the second cricket test, taking a 151-run first innings lead at lunch on the third day.

Sri Lanka's spin dominance and batting grit put them on the verge of an innings victory over Bangladesh in Colombo, with just four wickets separating them from a commanding series sweep at home.
