The next game of the series is on Tuesday, 3rd November, 2009 at 0330 GMT.
Tamim Iqbal is named Man-Of-The-Match
Stay tuned for the post-match presentation.
Right then! Bangladesh now lead the 5-match ODI series 2-1. The victory tonight was not as outstanding as in the previous game but still, they were the
dominant side. The visitors have a lot of problems with their batting which failed them yet again.
Their bowling and fielding was much better tonight. For the hosts, it was a good performance with the ball, but with the bat, apart from Tamim Iqbal,
everyone else seemesd to struggle. Both the teams now head to Chittagong for the remaining two games which are day games.
It is a must-win game for the visitors while for the hosts, a victory would hand them a third consecutive series win.
