Bangladesh faced their second successive innings defeat in the series after being reduced to 131-4 by Sri Lanka on the second day of the second and final Test on Wednesday.
Sri Lanka, who had earlier declared to on 457-9, enforced the follow on after bowling out Bangladesh for 191 in 45.4 overs and quickly claimed the second innings wickets of Javed Omar (nine), Habibul Bashar (10) and Nafees Iqbal (30).
Shariar Nafees (51) held up Sri Lanka's progress with a maiden Test fifty, sharing a 75-run stand for the fourth wicket with Mohammad Ashraful before being caught at slip off Muttiah Muralitharan.
Fast bowler Dilhara Fernando, making a return to the Test team this series after a long injury layoff, was the chief wicket-taker, claiming 5-60 in the first innings and 2-25 in the second innings.
Fernando troubled Bangladesh's top order with his sharp pace, nagging length and subtle variations, including a well-disguised slower ball, during important spells before and after lunch.
Ashraful offered the only substantial first innings resistance with an entertaining 41-ball 42 that included five fours and two sixes before being deceived by a Fernando slow ball and being caught at mid on.
The 21-year-old right-hander, who smashed 21 runs in a single Fernando over immediately after the lunch break, also resisted in the second innings, finishing the day on 21 not out.
Earlier, Bangladesh fast bowler Shahadat Hossain bowled Muralitharan for 24 to finish with a career-best 4-108. Left-armer Syed Rasel bowled Vaas for 65 to finish with 4-129, also a personal best.
Sri Lanka won the first Test by an innings and 96 runs.
