However, in the fourth wicket partnership of 135 runs, the anointed Towhid Hriday and Shakib Al Hasan scared the Tigers. In the end, Bangladesh collected 338 runs after losing 8 wickets in the allotted 50 overs. Which is the Tigers' highest run in ODI cricket history.

After losing the toss, Tamim Iqbal returned to bat with a catch behind the wicket for 15 runs. Tamim wanted to drive the ball outside off stump off Mark Adair. However, he could not play in the middle bat as he went out swinging. Caught at slip on the outside edge. Immediately, Paul Sterling palmed the ball. As a result, the Bangladesh captain had to make his way to the dressing room after scoring 3 runs.

Then in the tenth over, Liton Das was caught at cover by Curtis Campher. Lytton, who scored 26 runs off 31 balls, looked hopeful for a big innings. However, this right-handed batsman gave the catch to Sterling while pushing Campher's length ball.

Nazmul Hossain Shanto showed some hope in the third wicket pair but could not last long. The left-handed batsman returned to the dressing room after being bowled by Andy McBrain for 25 runs. However, Shakib Al Hasan and the anointed Touhid Hriday have shown the way for Bangladesh who are struggling in the fourth wicket pair.

The 135-run partnership of these two batsmen resulted in a big collection. The world's best all-rounder reached the club's milestone of 7000 runs in ODI cricket on this day. Shakib achieved this feat in the 228th ODI match of his career. However, he returned to the dressing room with the regret of 7 runs. The poster boy of Tiger Cricket fell victim to a personal 93 run.
