So, that brings us to the end of this game. It is time for the ODIs now. The first one of the three will start on 5th July at 10.30 am IST (5 am GMT). Join us early for the coverage. Hope you enjoyed the coverage. For now, it is goodbye.
Litton Das says he is happy with the way players performed. Adds it was hot and was not easy to play but credit to Shanto, Joy and other batters to bat so long. Reckons they have good quality bowlers and they are happy with the performance.
Najmul Hossain Shanto is the Player of the Match. He says he is happy with the win. Shares it was a good opportunity for the batters to play on this wicket. Tells as a player they need to perform in every format and he hopes to continue his form.
Hashmatullah Shahidi says he is feeling good after getting hit on the helmet. Adds the game didn't go their way right from the start but there were some positives to take from this game. Shares they have to play a lot more Test matches and that will help them improve.
Presentation next...
Credit to way the home team played. They are making it their fortress. Consistency was a big difference between the two teams. Afghanistan could have made amends but gave too many freebies while Bangladesh stuck to their plans throughout. Right from their seamers to their spinners, all made a massive contributions. Despite missing Shakib Al Hasan, Bangladesh have shown how versatile they are but not Afghanistan who have  along way to go in this format.
Afghanistan in reply were in tatters right from the start. No one scored more than 40 and that tells you the story. Bangladesh then scored runs to add in their lead in a quick way. They scored more than 100 in one session but Litton Das refused to end the clash quickly as he wanted few of his batters to enjoy the wicket. Najmul Hossain Shanto with twin centuries, Mominul Haque got one to his name while Das scored  a fifty. Afghanistan needed more than 600 to win. Already a massive challenge for them and they succumbed under the pressure.
Zahir Khan couldn't play anymore and that means Bangladesh finally have their victory and they win by a margin of 546 runs. A one-sided affair in this one-off test. Bangladesh with a comfortable win and they continue to dominate at home. Afghanistan won the toss but since then nothing had gone their way. Bangladesh batted and batted in the first innings. Najmul Hossain Shanto scored a brilliant century. Joy helped with a fifty as well and contributions from Mushfiqur Rahim and Mehidy Hasan gave Bangladesh a massive first innings score.
Zahir Khan has not recovered from the injury suffered and won't be able to participate any more with the bat. As it stands, Zahir Khan is retired out.
