Bangladesh A's winless streak on their tour of Sri Lanka continued after they suffered a seven-wicket thumping at he hands of Sri Lanka A in the first one-dayer of a three-match series at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo yesterday.

Electing to bat, Bangladesh A were bundled out for a paltry 116 in just 33.3 overs and the hosts took just 25.5 overs to chase it down, ending on 120 for the loss of three wickets.

Bangladesh A opener Saif Hassan scored a team-highest 32 off 42 balls while only three other batsmen managed doubledigit scores. Skipper Ashan Priyanjan was the pick of the bowlers for the home side, returning figures of four for 10 in 4.3 overs.

After the exchange, although Sri Lanka A lost two quick wickets to be reduced to 21 for two in 6.1 overs, Priyanjan's unbeaten 62-ball 50 and a 37-ball 24 from Priyamal Perera helped Sri Lanka romp to victory with 145 balls to spare.

Earlier on tour, a two-match four-day series between the sides ended in a 0-0 draw.
