Match Details
Put into bat first, Bangladesh got off to a steady start as Tamim Iqbal and Anamul Haque had a 41-run stand in 8.3 overs. Tamim Iqbal got run-out for 19 unfortunately after getting 19, which caused a mini collapse as Nazmul Hossain Shanto and Mushfiqur Rahim got out for ducks. Mahmudullah Riyad scored a painstaking 39 runs off 69 balls. But it was Anamul Haque Bijoy’s 76 off 73 balls and Afif Hossain’s brilliant 85 off 81 balls that propelled the Tigers to get to a competitive 256-9 in 50 overs. 18 extras added to their tally.
A couple of wickets for Brad Evans, and Luke Jongwe while stand-in
skipper Sikandar Raza had an excellent day with the ball picking up 1-42 in 10
overs. A wicket to show for Richard Ngarava as well. 3 run-outs in the Bangladesh
innings also contributed to the dismissal. Nyauchi, Kaia, and Madhevere went
wicketless despite keeping things tight here.
A win for Bangladesh by 105 runs to lose the series 1-2 to the hosts. Stay tuned for the post-match presentation ceremony that comes your way now.
