DHAKA, (Reuters)-Bangladesh left-arm seamer Mustafizur Rahman haunted India again with career-best figures of six for 43 to lead his team to a first ever one-day series victory over the twice world champions yesterday.After their captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni opted to bat first, India were shot out for 200 in 45 overs in a rain-disrupted second ODI.
Set a revised 200-run victory target in 47 overs, veteran Shakib Al Hasan (51 not out) anchored Bangladesh’s chase and the hosts romped home by six wickets in 38 overs to clinch an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series and qualify for the 2017 Champions Trophy.
“It’s a great moment for us and now we’ll be playing Champions Trophy which is a great achievement,” Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Mortaza said at the presentation ceremony.
Bangladesh had underlined their recent 50-over progress by beating England in the World Cup before whitewashing Pakistan 3-0 in a home series in April.
They will hope to inflict a similar humiliation on India when the teams meet in the final match on Wednesday.
Rookie Rahman, 19, was instrumental in Bangladesh’s 79-run win on Thursday and his off-cutter and subtle changes in pace made him only the second bowler, after Zimbabwe’s Brian Vitori, to claim five wickets or more in each of his first two ODIs.
India lost wickets at regular intervals, only Shikhar Dhawan (53), Dhoni (47) and Suresh Raina (34) managing to withstand Bangladesh’s relentless hostility.
Rahman drew first blood by dismissing Rohit Sharma for a duck but Dhawan and Virat Kohli (23) added 74 runs to steady the ship.
Off-spinner Nasir Hossain dismissed both batsmen and Ambati Rayudu fell for a duck.
Dhoni and Raina added 53 runs before Rahman dismissed Raina with a short delivery and sent back Dhoni and Axar Patel off successive deliveries.
Ravichandran Ashwin denied him a hat-trick but eventually became Rahman’s fifth victim.
“A few of us got starts but they had to make it big, that’s when it really counts,” Dhoni said.
“They were bowling really well. Even when they didn’t get wickets, they kept it really tight. Once they got two-three wickets in a row, they maintained pressure on us,” he added.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

Well don to the Bangladesh team with their series win over India. The Indians are not a strong team away from home and it is only a pity that the West Indies can't pull off series wins against teams when they play at home.

Cant believe a skinny likkel Muslim bhai  can be a fast bowler :

while in the W.I. big straaang tall strapping  Afros cant bowl and OUT batsmen !

Andy Roberts: The majority of the fast bowlers in the Caribbean are afraid of the hard work that's ahead of them.

Nothing comes easy in life. Fast bowling is like the marathon. You have to be prepared to put in the hard work.

That's what makes someone a top-quality fast bowler.

Unless I am mistaken (and I could well be), but wasn't Rahman bowling at 77mph-80mph - effectively the same speed that Holder bowls at?

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
