2nd ODI: Hosein Holds Nerve In Super Over As West Indies Edge Bangladesh By One Run
Najmul Hossain Shanto: Akeal Hosein held his nerve in a tense Super Over to seal a dramatic one-run win for West Indies against Bangladesh at the Sher-E-Bangla Stadium in Dhaka, levelling the three-match ODI series 1-1 on Tuesday.
Tasked with defending ten runs in the extra over, Hosein mixed dot balls with wides and no-balls, yet managed to keep his composure at the death. Bangladesh’s Saif Hassan, Soumya Sarkar, and Najmul Hossain Shanto couldn’t find the boundary they needed as West Indies prevailed in a match that will be remembered for its chaos, spin dominance, and a finish full of drama.
Earlier, the West Indies had scored exactly ten runs in their Super Over, with captain Shai Hope striking a boundary off the final delivery after Mustafizur Rahman dismissed Sherfane Rutherford with his second ball. The slender total ultimately proved just enough, thanks to Hosein’s nerveless control and Bangladesh’s failure to capitalise on scoring opportunities. The result marked Bangladesh’s first-ever tie in men’s international cricket — their first in 814 matches — before the West Indies edged them out in the one-over decider.
