Bangladesh defeated England in the first T20I of the ongoing three-match series at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Thurs🦋day, March 9.

The hosts, after winning the toss, elected to bowl first and restricted the tourists to 155/6 in their allotted 20 overs. England’s Phil Salt and captain Jos Buttler, however, start♓ed brilliantly and added 8🗹0 runs for the opening wicket.

Salt was dismissed for 38 off 35, but Buttler kept the run-flow going. The English skipper smashed a brilliant half-century, scoring 67 from 42 deliveries, with the help of 4 four and as many sixes. Bangladesh bowlers showcased discipline in the bowling and didn’t allow England to capitalise after their stunning start. Hasan Mahmud w🎃as the pick of the Baܫngladeshi bowlers, taking two wickets for 26 runs in his four overs.

In response, Bangladesh lost a few wickets in quick succession, but Najmul Hossain Shanto kept his stand alive and scored a blistering 51 off 30 balls, including eight boundaries. Shakib Al Hasan also chipped in w☂ith an unbeaten 34 off 24 balls, including six boundaries, as Bangladesh chased down the target with two overs to spare.

“Towhid batted really well. I just watched the ball and played cricketing shots. I wasn’t thinking about those two wickets. The way all the bowlers bowled, it was outstanding, especially Hasan and Taskin. I just had to bat normally. Rony and Litton started well, it helped the other batters,” said Najmul Hossain after bagging the Player 🗹of the Match a🌞ward.
