Bangladesh Struggles to Bat

Bangladesh captain Nazmul Hasan Shanto won the toss in this match and decided to bat first. But the batsmen of the host team proved the captain’s decision wrong. In the second over itself, Wiaan Mulder sent Shadman Islam to the pavilion without opening his account. Mulder also gave Bangladesh the second blow by dismissing Mominul Haque. From here wickets kept falling continuously.

Opener Mahamudul Hasan Joy scored the highest 30 runs for the team. He played this innings with the help of two fours and a six on 97 balls. Apart from him, only Taijul Islam (16), Mehedi Hasan Miraz 13, and Mushfiqur Rahim (11) could reach double figures.
