The first Test of the two-match series in Chattogram is likely heading for a draw as Sri Lanka approach the final session of the match today with a handy lead and, more importantly, with wickets in hand.

Bangladesh could not scalp more than two wickets and expose the tail in the post-Lunch session so far as Niroshan Dickwell and Dinesh Chandimal, both on double figures, continue to negotiate Taijul Islam and Shakib Al Hasan without much trouble.

Sri Lanka are 188 for six after 67 overs, leading by 120 runs, with around 40 overs remaining in the day from here on.
