Bangladesh had to play till the fifth ball of the last over to win. The wound of the ODI series loss with the Afghans is still not dry.

Team Tigers captain Shakib Al Hasan said at the press conference before the start of the match that he wants to win both the matches.

Shakib says that anything can happen in T20, 'Every series is a challenge. Especially in the T20 format, the challenge is more. Because all groups have equal opportunities. I don't think there is such thing as small team or big team in T20. Any team has the ability to beat any team. That challenge is what we enjoy. We beat England 3-0 despite losing one match against Ireland.
