The Bangladesh cricket team toured Sri Lanka for three Test matches and three One Day Internationals in June and July 2007.

Chaminda Vaas and Prasanna Jayawardene both recorded their first Test career centuries, both during the same partnership during the Sri Lankan innings.

Chaminda Vaas was replaced by Sujeewa de Silva, while Upul Tharanga, recovered from a heel injury to take the place of Malinda Warnapura.

Bangladesh made 2 changes to their side with Syed Rasel replacing Mohammad Sharif and Tushar Imran in for Mehrab Hossain Jnr.

This resulted in Bangladesh making slow progress scoring only 5 runs in 5 overs before play was interrupted by rain again.

Bangladesh scored 20 runs for the final 4 wickets as Mashrafe Mortaza and Mohammad Rafique were caught and bowled by Muralitharan while Shahadat Hossain and Syed Rasel both went for a duck.

Upul Tharanga was bowled by Syed Rasel in the 14th over while Michael Vandort was trapped lbw and Sri Lanka were 74/2.

On the 104th over Sangakkara made his second double century in the series hitting a full toss down square leg for 4.

Day 4 Sri Lanka made an overnight declaration which meant that Bangladesh required 369 runs to avoid another innings defeat.
