...Presentation....
Afghanistan were in there in the chase. Sediqullah Atal and Rahmat Shah played well but the former was dismissed thanks to a blinder from Mehidy Hasan at square leg. Afghanistan lost three wickets in six balls including the big run out of Rahmat Shah. Naib and Nabi then tried to steady the ship but once they too fell, it was all over. Credit to the way Bangladesh bowled. They kept it tight and were impressive in the field as well while Afghanistan leaked plenty on the field.
This is a superb performance from Bangladesh and they have levelled the series. It was the crucial moments which Bangladesh won today. From the last carnage from Jaker Ali and Nasum Ahmed to three wickets in span of six balls which have made the difference. A good toss to win you reckon. Bangladesh read the conditions perfectly and laid the foundation at the top. Najmul Hossain Shanto was the mainstay as his fifty was vital on a tricky pitch. There was handy contributions from others as well but it was Jaker Ali's handy cameo that made a real difference of 15-20 runs.
