Sri Lanka eye another ODI home series win

Twice Sri Lanka came from behind to snatch the advantage away from Bangladesh in the first ODI which they won by 77 runs to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series. First, when batting when they recovered from 89-4 to post a total of 244 and, then when Bangladesh were cruising at 100-1 in reply to bowl them out for 167.

These are hallmarks of a side that is not willing to throw in the towel when the going is not good but ready to fight till the bitter end, something which is akin to how the Australians play their cricket.
