India secured a comprehensive 133-run victory over Bangladesh in the third and final T20I at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad. The hosts showcased a complete team performance, marked by Sanju Samson’s brilliant century, Suryakumar Yadav’s stylish batting, and a dominant bowling effort. However, one moment that stole the limelight was Hardik Pandya’s humorous escape from a run-out, which had fans in s??plits.

The comedy of errors: Hardik Pandya’s run-out escape

The dramatic incident took place in the 18th over of India’s innings. Facing left-arm pacer Mustafizur Rahman, Pandya found himself in an unexpected situation. On the third ball of the over, Mustafizur bowled a precise yorker, causing Pandya to get an inside edge onto his pads. The ball rolled towards wicketkeeper Litton Das, while Riyan Parag, standing at the non-striker’s end, decided to dash?? for a quick single. Pandya, however, was u??naware of Parag’s move as he was hurt by the delivery and was not looking up.

By the time ?Pandya looked up, he saw Parag standing beside him at the striker’s end, resulting in both batters being at the same crease. Bangladesh had a golden opportunity to effect a run-out, but what followed was a comedy of errors.

Missed opportunity: Bangladesh’s fielding blunder

Litton tried to execute an underarm throw towards the bowler’s end, where both Pandya and Parag were frantically trying to return to safety. In a surprising turn, Litton’s throw went over the bowler, completely missing the stumps. Najmul Hossain Shanto, positioned to back up, fumbled while attempting to collect the ball, giving Pan??dya the chance to dash to the non-striker’s end safely.

This sequence of events was a glaring example of Bangladesh’s fielding lapse, which allowed Pandya to continue his innings. The missed run-out opportunity ultimately proved costly as India kept? piling on the runs, capitalizing on Bangladesh’s errors.

The incident involving Pandya was a significant yet humorous highlight of the match, illustrating a critical lapse in Bangladesh’s fielding. Despite the miscommunication and errors on the field, India maintained their dominance and ended the match with a huge win, sealing the series with a 133-run margin.

Naveen-ul-Haq’s exceptional bowling

As Bangladesh approached the target, the match witnessed a tense climax. With Bangladesh marginally ahead of the DLS par score in the 19th over, Afghanistan needed breakthroughs.

Bangladesh’s batting struggles and recovery

The top order continued to falter as Litton Das and Najmul Hossain Shanto fell quickly, leaving Bangladesh at a precarious 21/3 by the fifth over. Shakib Al Hasan attempted to stabilize the innings with a patient 17 off 22 balls, but fell victim to Rohit Paudel‘s lbw decision.

Mustafizur Rahman‘s exceptional bowling performance was pivotal as Bangladesh thwarted the possibility of a series whitewash against the United States of America (USA), securing a commanding 10 wi??cket vic?tory in the third and final T20I held on Saturday (May 25) at the Prairie View Cricket Complex in Houston, Texas.

Strong start by the USA openers

Despite USA resting four key players, they launched an aggressive start with Shayan Jahangir and Andries Gous at the helm. They made a solid start with a 46 runs opening partnership before Shakib Al Hasan and Mustafizur struck crucial blows.

Mustafizur Rahman’s dominance

Mustafizur, who recently featured for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, showcased his prowess by dismissing key batters, including Corey Anderson, who had been influential in USA’s earlier victories. He eventually finished with a career-best 6/10, marked a historic moment as the first Bangladesh bowler to achieve a six-wicket haul in T20Is. His remarkable feat significantly contributed to limiting USA to a modest total of 104/ 9.

This spell marked Bangladesh’s most economical T20I bowling performance with a minimum of four overs.

Strong response from Bangladesh openers

Responding to the challenge, Bangladesh’s batters, Tanzid Hasan and Soumya Sarkar, took charge against the USA bowlers. Tanzid impressed with his third T20I fifty, well-supported by Soumya’s unbeaten 43 off 28 balls. Their partnership, marked by impressive stroke play and timely boundaries, ensured Bangladesh’s comprehensive victory. The duo’s 108 runs stand in just 11.5 overs propelled Bangladesh to a convincing ten-wicket win, narrowing the series margin to 2-1 in favor of USA. Mustafizur eventually earned the Player of the Match award for his splendid bowling performance.

Bangladesh secured a hard-fought victory over Zimbabwe by a narrow margin of 5 runs in the fourth T20I of their five-match series at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium on Friday. Despite setting a below-par total of 143 runs, the Bengal Tigers managed to defend it successfully, as Zimbabwe faltered against Bangladesh’s bowling attack, getting all out for 138 runs in 19.4 overs.

The highly charged encounter also saw a light-hearted moment when Zimbabwe’s fielders missed a straightforward opportunity for a run-out. The video capturing this amusing blunder has been circulating on social media, delighting fans with its comedic value.

Zimbabwe’s failed attempts of run-out leave fans in splits

During the 20th over of the match, Blessing Muzarabani delivered a slower back-of-a-length ball to Tanvir Islam, who defended it just beyond the bowler. Initially, there was a call for a quick single from Mustafizur Rahman, who was positioned at non-striker, but due to confusion, both bat??ters hesitated momentarily before attempting the run again, creat?ing a clear opportunity for a run-out.

However, the bowler failed to aim accurately at the stumps, resulting in the ball veering away from the wicketkeeper towards the third-man boundary, allowing the batters to sneak in an overthrow. More confusion between the Bangladesh players left them stranded at one end. A fielder threw the ball back towards the bowler’s end in an attempt to effect an easy run-out. Yet, despite having ample time and the ball almost within his reach, fielder Johnathan Campbell fumbled. He had a chance to gather the ball and dislodge the bails with the batter inches away from him, but he couldn’t execute the dismissal.

This momentary lapse provided a dual lifeline to Mustafizur leaving other Zimbabwe fielders incredulous at t??he? missed opportunity.

Tanzid Hasan and Saumya Sarkar provide solid start to Bangladesh

After being asked to bat first, Bangladesh made a lively beginning, led by Tanzid Hasan‘s aggressive batting performance. Hasan compiled an impressive 52 runs off 37 balls, setting the tone for the innings. Meanwhile, Soumya Sarkar, b???atting at the other end, offered valuable stability, contributing 41 runs from 34 deliveries.

Zimbabwe’s bowling attack stuns the hosts

Under the leadership of Sikandar Raza, the Zimbabwean bowlers effectively slowed down Bangladesh’s scoring momentum, consistently taking vital wickets. Luke Jongwe‘s performance, securing 3 wickets for 20 runs, alongside Richard Ngarava‘s contribution of 2 wickets for 27 runs in his four overs, played a pivotal role in containing Bangladesh to a modest total of 143 runs within their stipulated 20 overs.
