Afghanistan have lost the series but will have the opportunity to salvage some pride and get ten points in the Super League in the third game. But they will have to turn up with higher spirits and an improved performance. Bangladesh had a near perfect game, if not a perfect one. They'll look to carry through this form.

7:04pm: Bangladesh complete a comprehensive victory to wrap up the series win in the process. They get into a huddle post-game. A spirited batting performance lit up by another record partnership, this time for the third wicket, was followed up with bowlers picking up regular wickets and cutting down free scoring phases for the batters. The Afghanistani batters looked to have carried the deflated spirits early on with a suicidal run out and were always behind the 8-ball. The fifties from Rahmat Shah and Najibullah Zadran took the game to the 46th over but that could not prevent an 88-run loss.

Full just outside off, defended to the bowler
Length outside off, defended to short cover
Good length on the stumps, stays down a bit. Defended to the bowler
Full slow one on the stumps. It was slog swept to cow corner. The fielder took it in the fence, threw it up as he went over the rope, came back in and caught it after coming back in. It will be sent upstairs. No issues whatsoever! Mahmudul, the sub fielder, took it off balance which makes it all the more impressive
The bowlers are going through the motions. The spinner's probably on to bring back the over rate

Short and wide, cut to deep point
Mahmudullah comes in around the wicket
Full on the stumps, nudged to mid wicket
Full on the stumps, defended to short mid on
