Afghanistan pacers Fazalhaq Farooqi and Naveen-ul-Haq had broken the backbone of Sri Lanka batting. Their batters had chased down the 105-run target in 10.1 overs.
Speaking ahead of the game, Bangladesh all-rounder Mehedy Hasan said his team would like to respond to Dasun Shanaka’s claim on the field. Shanaka had rated Afghanistan higher than Bangladesh’s.
“I don’t want to make a comment that this team is good and this team is bad. I think good and bad are proven in the field. A good team can lose if they play badly on that specific day. Similarly, a bad team can win if they play a good game of cricket. We will meet in the field and at the end of the day the good team will win the match,” said Hasan.

He said the first game against Afghanistan holds a lot of importance.
“Look, the first match is very important for any tournament. It will dictate how far we will go and what cricket we are going to play because it will set the tone of the team. If it is a spinning wicket it will be good considering both teams have quality spinners but what I feel is that the side that will perform well with the bat will have a better chance to win the game,” he said.
