6.00pm What a knock by Mushfiqur! Gets the record for the fastest century by a Bangladesh batter in ODIs Excellent knock and Bangladesh reach 349 for 6, their highest total in ODIs. This will take some getting from Ireland. The ball was moving all the way in the first ten over under cloudy skies but the bowlers could not strike. The first wicket came via a run out before Litton and Shanto dug in adding 101 runs off 96 balls. Ireland did stage a comeback with three quick wickets but Mushfiqur Rahim and Towhid Hridoy's stand of 128 off 78 balls completely took the game away from Ireland. They leaked runs both side of the stumps and the Bangladesh batters made merry. Mushfiqur slammed 14 fours and two sixes in his century to set up a record score. Ireland could not chase down 339 the other day. Can they chase down 350, today? Join Thilak in a bit to find out.
Islam Saif: "One of the best innings in ODI for Bangladesh! Take a bow Mushi- MR15!!"
EshanHarryNz: "Bangladesh are looking threatening in ODI format. This team looks set that is without Mehidy too only gets stronger when he is included. "

Slaps it hard past mid-off! Into the 90s goes Mushfiqur. Misses his length and Mushfiqur won't miss out. Drills the drive and with that Bangladesh reach their highest score in ODIs, beating the one they scored a couple of days back.
