BAN vs AFG: Bangladesh will take on Afghanistan in the 2nd T20I of Afghanistan’s tour of Bangladesh on 5th March at the Sher-e-Bangla National stadium.
After sealing the ODI series comfortably 2-1, Bangladesh have carried on their winning momentum in the T20I series as well. The hosts managed to clinch a massive 61-run win courtesy of a player of the match performance by Nasum Ahmed and useful contributions from other players. They will now aim to grab another win and seal the series.
On the other hand, Afghanistan were hoping to put up a similar performance like the third ODI. However, they suffered a terrible defeat in the first T20I after being bundled out for just 94 runs. They will now look to regroup and work on their mistakes in order to make a strong comeback and level the series 1-1.
