Tanzim Hasan Sakib and Rishad Hossain took two wickets each for Bangladesh. During Bangladesh's run chase, Tanzid Hasan Tamim (51) and Parvez Hossain Emon (54) formed a 109-run partnership, helping their team get closer to the target. Nurul Hasan (23) and Rishad Hossain (14) remained unbeaten, securing the win for Bangladesh. Rashid Khan took four wickets for Afghanistan. Parvez Hossain Emon was named the 'Player of the Match'.
With the T20 World Cup less than six months away, this series is an opportunity for both teams to fine-tune their lineups and strategies. Afghanistan, after failing to qualify for the Asia Cup Super Fours, will aim to improve their T20 form. Bangladesh will be without their regular skipper Litton Das, giving opportunities to players like Parvez Emon and Tanzid Tamim.
