England tour of Bangladesh

---

• Well, the highlight of the last week is Bangladesh whitewashing the World Champions, England in the 3 T20I Series. It repeatedly shows that the BAN team is strong, especially in home conditions. The Eng team, even with their full power had no control over the series. Najmul Hossain Shanto won the Man of the Series award.

• England batted first in the 1st match. The openers Butler (67 runs), and Salt took a terrific start of 80 in the first half with a lot of batting to come. But Ban could restrict them to 156 runs, with an excellent death-balling effort. Ban batting looks prominent, but Shanto played an amazing knock of 50 off 27 balls with Towhid Hridoy, and then Shakib and Afif did the rest with 6 wickets in hand.

• Once again England started the batting, in the second T20I. But the Ban ballers were so good and they restricted them to 117 runs. Mehidi Hasan took 4 wickets. The chase was not easy as imagined. Eng took early wickets and put the pressure. Once again Shanto played an anchor role and with the help of Hridoy, and Hasan, they chased it within 19 overs.

• Ban scored 158 runs batting first in the third match, with 73 runs from Litton Das. In the chase, England was totally under control with 100/1 in 13 overs, Malan and Butler in the crease. But this pair got out in consecutive balls and Eng couldn't recover from there. They ended up in 142/6 experiencing a whitewash for the first time against Bangladesh.
