With Bangladesh struggling at 87-5, Imrul Kayes and Mahmadullah fought bravely and clawed Bangladesh to a first-innings total of 249.

In response, Mohammad Shahzad and Hashmatullah Shahidi struck half centuries. Supported from contributions from Asghar Afghan, Mohammad Nabi, and Samiullah Shenwari, Afganistan reached the last over, needing 8 to win.

The stage was set for a thrilling finale.

Mustafizur Rehman, long-hailed as one of the best death bowlers in International Cricket, lived up to his reputation. After a double off the first ball, Rehman struck back with his wicket, before unleashing his arsenal of variations. The batsmen struggled to even get bat on ball.

While Afghanistan were heartbroken yet again, the Bangladesh team celebrated as once again the Fiz took them to victory
