Rashid, Nabi fold Tigers for 192

Disciplined bowling from Afghanistan restricted Tigers at a minimal total in the third and final ODI at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram.

Electing to bat first, Bangladesh managed to score 192 in 46.5 overs with the help of Liton's 86.

No Bangladeshi batter except Liton can settle down in the pitch against the Afghan bowlers.

Shakib Al Hasan scored 30 off 36, Mahmudullah remained unbeaten on 29 off 53 while Tamim Iqbal scored 11 off 25.

For Afghanistan, Rashid Khan claimed 3 wickets in his 10 overs. Mohammad Nabi picked up 2 wickets while being economical.

Tigers have already wrapped up the series with two straight wins in the first two matches of the series.

The Tigers won the first match by four wickets and then whacked Afghanistan past by 88 runs in the second game to come one step closer to a clean sweep of the series.

With super league points at stake, Bangladesh indeed have no reason to be relaxed as every point in the bilateral series is important despite winning the series.

The hosts reached a magical 100 points and moved to the top of the ICC ODI Super League after clinching the second ODI.

From that point of view, Bangladesh knew every point is now important for them.
