Bangladesh:
Bangladesh won the first game of the series by 4 wickets but faced tough competition from the visitors.

Mustafizur Rahman was the pick from the bowlers and picked up 3 wickets. Shakib and Taskin Ahmed also bowled very well and picked up 2 wickets each.
With the bat, their top order and middle-order both collapsed and looked poor with the bat but Afif Hossain and Mehidy Hasan played an outstanding knock and had a record breaking partnership of 170 runs.
Going into this game, Bangladesh will be high on confidence and will also hope for better performance from their top order.
Afghanistan:
Afghanistan would have lost the game but will have a lot of positives from the first game both with the bat and ball.
Opting to bat first, Rahmanullah Gurbaz was dismissed cheaply but Rahmat Shah and Hashmatullah Shahidi played decent knocks and steadied the ship.
Najibullah Zadran was the pick from the batters and played an excellent knock of 67 runs but was not able to finish the innings well.
With the ball, Fazal haq Farooqi destroyed the Bangladeshi top order and brought Afghanistan back into the game and ended his spell with the figures 4/54 in his 4 overs.
