Bangladesh

102/0(13.1 Overs)

Hasan Mahmud to Graham Hume, ! LBW! Excellent review and Hasan Mahmud finishes things off with a five-wicket haul! Length ball, angled in from outside off, Graham Hume looks to work it away but misses and gets hit on the pads. There is half an appeal for lbw and it is turned down. There is a late decision for a review by Tamim Iqbal. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. Ireland have been bowled out for 101!

... The Run Chase ...

Right then, 102 runs are needed for Bangladesh to get the win and seal the ODI series 2-0. It looks to be a very straightforward chase and they should have no fuss in finishing things off with plenty of overs to spare. It remains to be seen whether the Irish bowlers can trouble the hosts early on with the movement available both in the air and off the deck. Join us soon as the run-chase is coming up next.

For Bangladesh, the pacers did an amazing job and gave no breathing space to the visitors. Taskin Ahmed was the most economical of all as he took 3 wickets giving away just 26 runs in his spell. Hasan Mahmud was sensational as he scalped a fi-fer and was unplayable today while Ebadot Hossain grabbed a couple of crucial wickets as well. It was a fast bowler's paradise and the pacers of Bangladesh made sure they took full advantage of these conditions.

The Bangladeshi bowlers were really impressive from the word go as they pitched the ball in the perfect areas and troubled the Irish batters from top to bottom. Ireland failed to put up a fight of any significance as no batter stood up and took responsibility in these challenging conditions. Curtis Campher and Lorcan Tucker put up some fight but that was also cut short by some fierce bowling. The decision to bat first after winning the toss knowing the track was under covers for a long time af

Pro-active captaincy along with the perfect grouping from the bowlers has given the hosts a massive advantage in the third and final ODI. Ireland have been bundled out on 101 runs in just 28.1 overs and for the first time ever all 10 wickets picked up by Bangladesh in an ODI game have gone to the pacers.

He says that the surface is the same one as the second game and Bangladesh put up a big total and there isn't much difference in the surface for this game as well. Adds that the sun is out but it has been wet in the last couple of days and there are dark patches on the deck and reckons the first 10 overs will be crucial.

TOSS - Ireland have won the toss and they will BAT first.

Hasan Mahmud to Graham Hume, ! LBW! Excellent review and Hasan Mahmud finishes things off with a five-wicket haul! Length ball, angled in from outside off, Graham Hume looks to work it away but misses and gets hit on the pads. There is half an appeal for lbw and it is turned down. There is a late decision for a review by Tamim Iqbal. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. Ireland have been bowled out for 101!

... The Run Chase ...

Right then, 102 runs are needed for Bangladesh to get the win and seal the ODI series 2-0. It looks to be a very straightforward chase and they should have no fuss in finishing things off with plenty of overs to spare. It remains to be seen whether the Irish bowlers can trouble the hosts early on with the movement available both in the air and off the deck. Join us soon as the run-chase is coming up next.

For Bangladesh, the pacers did an amazing job and gave no breathing space to the visitors. Taskin Ahmed was the most economical of all as he took 3 wickets giving away just 26 runs in his spell. Hasan Mahmud was sensational as he scalped a fi-fer and was unplayable today while Ebadot Hossain grabbed a couple of crucial wickets as well. It was a fast bowler's paradise and the pacers of Bangladesh made sure they took full advantage of these conditions.

The Bangladeshi bowlers were really impressive from the word go as they pitched the ball in the perfect areas and troubled the Irish batters from top to bottom. Ireland failed to put up a fight of any significance as no batter stood up and took responsibility in these challenging conditions. Curtis Campher and Lorcan Tucker put up some fight but that was also cut short by some fierce bowling. The decision to bat first after winning the toss knowing the track was under covers for a long time af

Pro-active captaincy along with the perfect grouping from the bowlers has given the hosts a massive advantage in the third and final ODI. Ireland have been bundled out on 101 runs in just 28.1 overs and for the first time ever all 10 wickets picked up by Bangladesh in an ODI game have gone to the pacers.
