    On England's next game against Sri Lanka in Wellington on Sunday: "Sri Lanka have an incredible record against England in Sri Lanka - outside Sri Lanka, they don't travel particularly well. But after today, I'm rather concerned for England - Dilshan batted very well, Sangakkara's in great nick so I'm worried about how many runs Sri Lanka will get, and I'm worried England haven't adopted a more aggressive approach."

  3. Captain's viewpublished at 11:22 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2015

    Sri Lanka captain Angelo Mathews: "Dilshan and Sangakkara were brilliant, they batted us through, took calculated risks and it was a great effort by the three batters. We were slightly sloppy in the field and could have done better, but once you've got 300 on the board your bowlers can take chances. We're all ready for the England game."

  4. Captain's viewpublished at 11:21 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2015

    Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza: "Our bowlers weren't up to the mark and hopefully in the next match we will improve. They [Sri Lanka batsmen Dilshan and Sangakkara] played well and showed their character today. I hope our next game will be our best in the tournament."

    "I was quite caught up in all the hype about the game - Bangladesh's record against Sri Lanka is poor but I thought they might do better. This game has followed the other two played at the MCG - teams batting first have piled on the runs and won by a country mile. When you're chasing 300, you either get very close or nowhere near, and when their only firecracker batsman Tamim Iqbal was back in the hutch after two balls of the innings, it was all over."

  7. Man of the matchpublished at 11:14 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2015

    Tillakaratne Dilshan has been named man of the match for his 161 not out and 2-35. Here is what he has just had to say about his side's win: "I am really happy with today's innings after getting out first ball in the last game.

    "I am enjoying my cricket and when I cross the line I don't think about my age.

    "I dropped a catch and it is all a part of the game. But I am happy with our performance and we are getting back to a rhythm. This was a good game for us before we move on to the bigger games."

    "Sri Lanka have a very experienced line-up, they set a good blueprint with the bat to keep wickets in hand and accelerate in the last few overs. It was an emphatic batting performance - some of the guys didn't get a hit, but if the batters at the top keep doing the job, so be it."

    "Sabbir's wringing his hand, looking at his finger - the last thing you want is to lose a player to a hand injury, but it was a brute of a delivery. Malinga's release point is so difficult to pick up, but it was a good catch by Sangakkara. He's been an amazing cricketer."

    Malinga quickly wraps things up by trapping Taskin Ahmed bang in front with a full ball. The finger goes straight up and a review - more out of hope than belief - cannot save Ahmed or his team. It is a 92-run victory for Sri Lanka, who have dominated this game from start to finish. England beware.

    Just two balls after bringing up his 50, courtesy of a flick down leg for four, Sabbir goes as the bowler digs one in a bit shorter and catches the batsmen on the gloves before Sangakkara claims.

    "A very good effort from Sabbir, he's showing some depth to the Bangladesh batting line-up."

    "After that stumping, Dilshan has 99 one-day international wickets, to go with his 9,586 ODI runs."

    Dilshan continues and a pulled single gives new man Rubel Hossain a chance to show what he can do. And this consists of knocking back the four deliveries he faces.

  15. Ban 233-8 (runs required 100)published at 10:57 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2015

    The game is gone but Sabbir offers at least one moment of genuine positivity during Mathews' over, courtesy of a launched drive past mid-off for four. Other than that it was all very conservative.

    "It's always disappointing when a one-day match pootles out like this because a side thinks they can add 0.001 to their net run rate or something."

    "Dilshan bowled the most horrendous delivery in international cricket which flew down the leg side - he could bowl left-arm better than that - and then he gets a wicket next ball."

    Dilshan claims the wicket of Mortaza, who is beaten by the ball and stumped by Sangakkara, in the middle of a crazy over that featured an awful mis-field at point to concede four runs, a reviewed stumping (given not out) and possibly the worst ball you'll see at this tournament, which Dilshan planted near his own feet.

    Scorecard

  19. Ban 222-7 (Sabbir 36, Mortaza 7)published at 10:48 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2015

    Perera is back on, but his return lasts just two balls (the second of which is pummelled through mid-on for four by Mortaza) before he signals an injury (in his back it would seem) and leaves the field. Mathews takes over and prevents any further boundaries, with both batsmen claiming a single apiece.

  20. Ban 216-7 (Mortaza 1, Sabbir 35)published at 10:43 Greenwich Mean Time 26 February 2015

    Herath delivers a neat over to end his spell for the concession of just one further run, courtesy of a turn to leg from Mortaza. The spinner ends with 0-43 from his 10 overs.
