News desk: Bangladesh vowed to wrap up the three-match T20 International series with a match to spare as they take on the visiting Ireland team in the second match on Wednesday at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram.<\/p>\n
The matches starts at 2 PM and will be aired live on T Sports Channel.<\/p>\n
The Tigers won the first T20, which was hit by rain, by 22 runs through DLS method. They put up a hefty 207-5 in 19.2 overs as the rain intervened their innings, otherwise there was every chance that the hosts could eclipse their highest T20 total of 215.<\/p>\n
Ireland could manage 81-5 after the revised target was set for 104 runs to win in eight overs.<\/p>\n
Bangladesh also made their intention clear that they wouldn’t compromise with the aggressive brand of cricket, racking up a record 81 runs in the first powerplay.<\/p>\n
T20 skipper Shakib Al Hasan revealed that it was exactly the cricket what they want to play.<\/p>\n
“This is what we want. It is difficult for one or two guys to always contribute, want this kind of all-round performance,” Shakib said. “We were not sure how the wicket will play, but we always want to be positive from the start.”<\/p>\n
Bangladesh openers set up the platform, adding 91 runs in just 7.1 overs with Rony Talukdar hitting 67 off 38 and Liton Das contributing 47 off 23.<\/p>\n
Rony who was adjudged man of the match in the first T20 game is unlikely for the second after sustaining a shoulder injury during the fielding.<\/p>\n
Even if he couldn’t play the match, it shouldn’t bother Bangladesh, as they have the enough players in from right at this moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
