Bangladesh go head to head against Ireland in the 2nd match of the three match ODI Series at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Saturday.
Bangladesh showed why they are a dangerous side at home during the first ODI when two of their batters scored 90+ runs. However, both players missed out on a well-deserved century. Bangladesh ended up posting a massive total of 338/8 on the board. Ireland got off to a good start in that run chase, but they faltered in the middle overs once the spinners were introduced.
Ireland were folded quickly to just 155 and suffered a heavy defeat to hand Bangladesh the lead in the ODI series. Bangladesh’s spinners ruled the game, but it was Ebadot Hossain, the pacer who was the pick of the bowlers with a four-wicket haul.
