The Bangladesh A openers - Shadman Islam and Soumya Sarkar - started brightly to whittle out the massive deficit and lost just Shadman in the last session of day two.
But then on the third day, Sri Lanka A seized total control of the game taking wickets at regular intervals to submit Bangladesh A to just 107 runs. Pushpakumara was the chief destroyer with his left-arm off-spin taking 6-46.
