Bangladesh’s Finest Moment

.


July 21: Bangladesh stand-in captain Shakib Al Hasan led from the front with an unbeaten 96 as his side beat the West Indies in the second and final Test here on Monday and he declared the 2-0 series win.

Shakib and Raqibul Hasan made 65 — both career bests as they successfully chased 215 to win by four wickets and claim only their second-ever series win.

"In our nine years, this is the biggest thing that has happened to Bangladesh cricket," said Shakib, who also hit 13 fours in his 97-ball knock in a little over 2-1/2 hours to make him a shoe-in for the Man-of-the-Match award.

"This series victory will give a boost to our confidence, and will help to take us to the next level, and with God’s help, we shall go forward.

Bangladesh were wobbling on 67/4 about half-hour before the tea break, but Shakib joined Raqibul and they put Bangladesh solidly on course for victory with a stand of 106 for the fifth wicket either side of tea.
