Fazalhaq Farooqi, Ibrahim Zadran Star to Help Afghanistan Go 1-0 Up in ODI Series Against Bangladesh
Fazalhaq Farooqi and Ibrahim Zadran were quite brilliant in the first ODI and helped Afghanistan conquer Bangladesh.
Afghanistan were at their best at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram and registered a clinical win over Bangladesh. In a rain-hit game, the Afghan bowlers put up a show and the visitors restricted Tamim Iqbal & Co. to just 169 runs in 43 overs. Afghanistan in response were in a strong position, having piled on 83 runs in 21.4 overs at the loss of just two wickets. However, the match could not continue as rain made its presence felt and eventually, Hashmatullah Shahidi & Co. won the first game of the-match ODI series by 17 runs (DLS method). Ibrahim Zadran remained unbeaten on 41 runs. Fazalhaq Farooqi was adjudged the Player of the Match.
