The Tigers' reply started badly as Shamsur Rahman was removed in the opening over by Lasith Malinga, although fellow opener Anamul Haque made 42 before falling lbw to Thisara Perera.
Wickets steadily fell as Mushfiqur Rahim anchored the innings, but home hopes finally vanished when he was the ninth man out in the 42nd over for 79 after steering Malinga straight to Sachithra Senanayake at point.
Senanayake then sealed the victory six balls later when Rubel Hossain got a leading edge to point. Senanayake, Malinga, Perera and Ajantha Mendis took two wickets apiece.
