Bangladesh were under pressure from the start in the unannounced final match. The Tigers were in trouble after losing 5 wickets for just 57 runs. Five of their top-order batsmen were dismissed after accumulating 57 runs on the scoreboard.
Bangladesh team is in trouble playing against a relatively weak opponent like the United Arab Emirates. The Tigers' batting is a disaster at the beginning of the innings.
As soon as 49 runs were accumulated on the scoreboard, 4 star batsmen returned to the dressing room. Parvez Hossain Emon returned to the dressing room one by one. This opener, who had scored a century in the first match of the series, hit a golden duck today.
Captain Liton Kumar Das, who scored 11 and 40 runs in the previous two matches, could not score more than 14 runs in 10 balls today.
Tawhid Hridoy came out to bat and returned to the dressing room before he knew it. Tawhid returned for a duck after facing 2 balls. Sheikh Mehedi Hasan and Tanjid Hasan Tamim returned for 49 and 57 runs for the team.
Sheikh Mehedi returned for just 2 runs in 9 balls. However, Tanjid, who batted with one end of the innings in front on a day of batsmen's failures, returned for 40 runs with the help of 4 fours and 4 sixes in just 18 balls before being bowled.
The match is being held at the Sharjah Stadium in the United Arab Emirates.
Both teams are now level on points, having won one match each. In the first match of the series last Saturday, Bangladesh won by 27 runs, scoring 191 for 7, riding on Parvez Hossain Emon's century.
The Tigers lost in a thrilling match despite scoring a record 205 runs in the second match of the series last Monday. Today's match is therefore important for both teams. Whoever wins this match will have a chance to secure the series.
