Afghanistan bowlers blow away Bangladesh challenge

 

Led by destructive opening spells from Yamin Ahmadzai and Azmatullah Omarzai, and an unbeaten half-century by skipper Rahmat Shah, Afghanistan secured a comfortable seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh, knocking them out of the 2026 ODI tri-series in the UAE.

After Bangladesh elected to bat, they suffered a disastrous start against Afghanistan’s opening attack. Yamin Ahmadzai struck early by removing Tanzid Hasan Tamim and Soumya Sarkar in consecutive deliveries of his opening over. Azmatullah Omarzai then got rid of Najmul Hossain Shanto and Towhid Hridoy to reduce Bangladesh to 28 for 4 inside seven overs.

Parvez Hossain Emon and Saif Hassan staged a recovery with a 93-run partnership for the fifth wicket, bringing some stability to the innings. However, Mohammad Nabi broke the stand by dismissing Saif Hassan for 41. Shortly after, Rashid Khan joined the party to clean up the tail in no time.
