Nasum And Tanzid Help Bangladesh Seal Series With Nine-wicket Victory Over The Netherlands
Parvez Hossain Emon: Bangladesh stormed to an unassailable 2-0 lead in their three-match T20I series against the Netherlands with a dominant nine-wicket victory in Sylhet on Monday. The hosts bowled out the visitors for just 103 in 17.3 overs before chasing down the target in 13.1 overs, making it their third-quickest run chase in T20Is (where overs weren’t reduced).
Opting to bring in Nasum Ahmed in place of Rishad Hossain, Bangladesh were rewarded instantly as the left-arm spinner dismissed Max O’Dowd and Teja Nidamanuru off successive deliveries in the third over. Nasum finished with 3 for 21, while the pace duo of Taskin Ahmed (2-22) and Mustafizur Rahman (2-18) continued their good form.
The Netherlands’ batting faltered once again, with seven batters dismissed in single digits. Only three reached double figures, and Aryan Dutt (30 off 24) was the lone bright spot, hitting the only six of the innings before being bowled by Mahedi Hasan. The visitors failed to capitalise on Bangladesh’s sloppy fielding, which included two missed run-outs and a dropped catch, and eventually folded for 103.
