Milestone
That's all for the coverage of this game. Till the next time, it's a ta-ta and a goodbye from me, Anurag Dasgupta and my co-commentators, Akshay Bhide and Anurag Singh.
Mahmudullah | Bangladesh captain: The boys showed their character in the middle. Each and every one contributed and in the end, Shamim played a crucial knock. Altogether it was a good batting effort. When you are chasing 190+, you have to build partnerships and rotate strike and try to hit boundaries in each over. That was our plan and we tried to take it as deep as we can. Soumya is a useful all-rounder, he gave me two wickets. And he stood up and scored some runs for the team. Looking forward to the next bubble and looking forward to the next series.
Soumya Sarkar is the player of the match and the series.
Sikandar Raza | The losing skipper: Every game we've showed a lot of improvement. 193 was well defendable on that track. Until the 18th over started, I was pretty confident we'll win the game. There was no point where I didn't think we would win, but ufortunately the last two overs didn't go to plan. To see the youngsters standing up and making valuable contributions gives us heart and is a step in the right direction. In my opinion, we've already started working on things, but 40 or 50 extras in two games will make it hard to beat anyone. We can go a long way if we work on that.
Presentation ceremony in a while.
Chasing a stiff target of 194, Bangladesh were off to a worse possible start, losing opener Mohammad Naim for just 3. The in-form Shakib Al Hasan joined hands with Soumya Sarkar and the duo started the repair work. A rare loose shot from Shakib resulted in his wicket. Despite losing Shakib at a tricky stage of the match, the run-rate was always under control as Sarkar shifted gears and played some handsome looking shots to notch-up his fifty. Bangladesh counter-attacked with a 63-run stand between Sarkar and Mahmudullah. Even with the departure of Sarkar, the asking rate never troubled the batters as boundaries were scored at regular intervals. In the end, a great cameo by Shamim Hossain steered Bangladesh past the victory line with 4 balls to spare.
DG: That's it, the match has ended and Bangladesh have won this match comfortably by 5 wickets in the end. It was a scintillating batting display by the visitors who outplayed the hosts in all three departments of the game. With that victory, Bangladesh have won the 3-match T20I series, 2-1.
