Early start is better for all
Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara believes an early start to matches would help beat the dew factor and reduce the number of one-sided contests in the triangular one-day series in Dhaka.
Sri Lanka began the tournament, which also involves India, with a seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh, easily overhauling the home side's score of 260-7.
Tillakaratne Dilshan led the chase with a knock of 104, his sixth ODI century, but a steady fall of dew hampered Bangladesh in the field making for a one-sided match.
Sangakkara sympathised with the home team.
