Not one, two, but three injuries made headlines during the 3rd ODI between Bangladesh and Sri Lanka at Chattogram on Monday (March 18)

Jaker Ali, an uncapped wicketkeeper batter, had to be stretched off the ground following a collision while fielding in the first innings. Crashing into Anamul Haque while attempting to take a catch of Pramod Madushan off Taskin Ahmed, Ali got injured and was taken off immediately. Though Haque grabbed the catch, Jaker Ali crashed his head on Haque's shoulder. "His (Jaker) injury is in the neck. There's no injury on the brain. We have mobilised his neck. Pain will go down in the next 24 to 48 hours. He is already saying pain has gone down. He is talking to us; he had his medicine. There's no reason to be afraid," Bangladesh team physio said in a statement. Meanwhile, Bangladesh endured a tough time in the middle during the final ODI, as seamer Mustafizur Rahman had to be stretched off due to cramps in the 48th over. Seasoned campaigner Soumya Sarkar also injured his neck as he hit the advertisement board while trying to stop the ball in the 49th over. Tanzid Ahmed was roped in as Sarkar's concussion substitute.

Bangladesh beat Sri Lanka to win ODI series

Sri Lanka batted first in the decider and lost three wickets inside 11 overs. Following Kusal Mendis' dismissal later, rookie Janith Liyanage made the innings about himself, taking down the Bangladesh attack.

Sri Lanka scored 235. Bangladesh lost early wickets in the chase, but Tanzid Hasan and Towhid Hridoy kept the home team's chances alive.
