Highlights | BAN VS AFG, Asia Cup 2023 4th Cricket Score and Updates: Bangladesh Win By 89 Runs

Bangladesh Vs Afghanistan, Asia Cup 2023 Highlights: Mehidy Hasan Miraz, Najmul Hossain Shanto & Taskin Ahmed Were The Stars Of The Match For Bangladesh.

LIVE Blog

Bangladesh secured a convincing victory, significantly enhancing their chances of advancing to the Super Fours. Despite a prior defeat to Sri Lanka, Bangladesh displayed remarkable form right from the outset. The opening partnership set a brisk pace, and centuries by Miraz and Shanto propelled them to a commanding total. Contributions from Shakib and Mushfiq were equally vital in this impressive batting performance.

In response, Afghanistan stumbled early with the loss of Gurbaz. Their top-order, particularly Ibrahim Zadran and Rahmat Shah, struggled to find momentum, although Ibrahim Zadran did play some entertaining shots, many coming after reaching his fifty. Shahidi managed to notch a fifty as well, but Afghanistan never posed a substantial threat throughout the match.

Rashid Khan added a few boundaries towards the end, but they proved to be mere consolation runs as Bangladesh secured an 89-run victory. This comprehensive win not only boosted their confidence but also improved their prospects of progressing in the Asia Cup competition.
