Bangladesh continued their comprehensive form over Afghanistan to claim a 3-0 whitewash in their T20 series. It was their most important game played recently, with Bangladesh’s batsmen putting on a fireworks show that propelled them to a terrific win.
Saif Hassan was undoubtedly the player of the match, blazing his way to 64 runs off only 38 balls. His fireworks with the willow featured two fours and a jaw-dropping seven maximums, all adding up to a blistering strike rate of 168.42. When batting first, Hassan’s ability to dominate the Afghan bowlers was key in Hasan’s team setting a formidable total for his team to defend.
Tanzid was impressive, hitting 33 off 33 balls to provide useful support. His four boundaries and a six showcased his consistency at the crease with a strike rate of 100.00. His 34 overs in steady, compact hands continued the positive flow, as Bangladesh looked to set Durban a real target with a pacesetting lead.
Emon contributed to the team’s brilliant offensive performance with his knock of 14 runs in just 16 balls. He ultimately finished with a strike rate of 87.50, despite hitting just one four and one six during his innings. His contributions sometimes appeared meager next to his trailblazing teammates, but each run counted. All three turned out to be vital in helping Bangladesh set their score against the Afghan team.
What we saw in that match was monstrous potential of Bangladesh’s batting attack. That’s because they thoroughly trounced their competition in both runs scored and scoring rate. The team’s knack for regularly finding the rink also played a vital role in their success during the series.
