Athapaththu's all-round show levels WODI series

Sri Lanka secured a vital four-wicket victory against Bangladesh in the second WODI, played on Wednesday at the Rajshahi Divisional Stadium. This win, fueled by the stellar performance of captain Chamari Athapaththu, helped Sri Lanka level the three-match series 1-1.

Athapaththu returned from injury to make an immediate impact, taking three wickets for 36 runs, which contributed to bowling Bangladesh out for 165. Bangladesh's captain, Nigar Sultana Joty, was their top scorer with 58 runs.

In the chase, Athapaththu provided a brisk start with 40 runs off 39 balls. A pivotal 77-run partnership between Harshitha Samarawickrama (50) and Hansima Karunaratne (40) ultimately steered Sri Lanka towards their target.

Despite late wickets from Bangladesh's Nahida Akter, Sri Lanka reached 166 for six in 38.2 overs to seal the win. The series will conclude with the final match at the same venue on Saturday.
