Perhaps the complacency effect. Bangladesh thumped SL in the first tri series match and assumed the trophy was theirs. Here SL thumped favorites India and probably assumed similar.

But it would have been funny if Shakib quipped "our knowledge of Hathu probably helped us". LOL.

At any rate, will be interesting to see what kind of graph SL have after 3 years of Hathu. We had lost to Afghanistan and Hong Kong right before Hathu took over. SL managed a very creditable 0-1 scoreline in the Test series in India and a 2-0 whitewash of PAK so already had a pretty strong baseline.
