Bangladesh have defeated Afghanistan and they have kept their Super 4 hopes alive with this victory! What a win this has been on the back of a spectacular bowling effort from Bangladesh! Afghanistan would be disappointed as they fail to chase down what seemed like a gettable total on this track! This has been another thriller after the Sri Lanka vs Hong Kong China game and up until Azmatullah Omarzai was at the crease. But after he and Rashid Khan departed, Afghanistan lost all hope. Noor Ahmad tried hard with a couple of lusty blows in the end but Bangladesh eventually came out on top. Earlier Tanzid Hasan Tamim hit 52 runs as Bangladesh got to 154/5. For Afghanistan, Rashid Khan (2/26) and Noor Ahmad (2/23) were the best bowlers. Bangladesh got off to a sensational start as Nasum Ahmed took a wicket off the first ball of the innings. He ended up conceding just 11 runs off his four overs while taking two wickets. Taskin Ahmed also took two wickets (2/34) and Rishad Hossain (2/18) scalped two as well. Mustafizur Rahman was the best bowler for Bangladesh with figures of 3/28. Afghanistan's best batter was Azmatullah Omarzai who tried hard, hitting 30 runs off 16 balls while Rashid Khan got 20 off 11. Bangladesh go to the second spot in Group B behind Sri Lanka with this win and all eyes are on the SL vs AFG match on September 18 now. Bangladesh would want Sri Lanka to beat Afghanistan while a win for Rashid Khan and co might be enough as they have a superior NRR (Net Run Rate) as compared to Bangladesh!
