In the fight to save the series, Bangladesh restricted Sri Lanka to 165 for 5 in the second T20I. In other words, the Tigers have to make 166 to return to the series. Two openers Liton Das and Soumya Sarkar made a great start chasing the target.
However, in the fourth over of Bangladesh's innings, there was a setback. Binura Fernando's first ball of that over was a short length, and Soumya was bowled by Poole. The ball goes into the hands of the wicket keeper. Umpire Gazi Sohail, however, gave out, saying that Soumya had been bottom-edged. Reviewed by Soumya. Spike seen in ultra-edge.
However, television umpire Masudur Rahman said that he saw a 'gap' between the ball and the bat while showing the spike. Due to which he did not give out. Soumya who almost reached the boundary thinking out is back again.
However, the Sri Lankan team could not be satisfied with this incident. They surrounded the umpire Sharfuddaula. On the other hand, coach Chris Silverwood went to the fourth umpire Tanveer Ahmed. In the end Soumya bats not out.
