If Bangladesh can chase the target in 38.1 overs or less, they'll make it to the semifinal stage on the back of a better net run rate.
After seeing off the first few overs, Shahzaib Khan and Shamyl Hussain opened their arms. The latter took the lead in run-scoring but also fell after he left Rohanat Doullah Borson's delivery that jagged in and crashed against his off stump.
