Right then, that is it from this game. Bangladesh pulled their first win in this series to make it 1-1. Next, Bangladesh will take on Ireland on 2nd December, Tuesday, at 12 pm GMT in Chattogram. Don't forget to tune in early for all the pre-match build-up. Until then, stay safe and goodbye!
The skipper of Bangladesh, Litton Das, is the Player of the Match for his exceptional batting. He says that his finger is getting better as he got a blow in this match. Continues that everyone played their part and that is the reason behind this win. Also says that after the fall of the third wicket, things started to tumble away, but Mohammad Saifuddin finishes off neatly. Ends up saying that they will come back stronger in the upcoming match to get the series winner.
Paul Stirling, skipper of Ireland, says that it was a great game of cricket, and believed that everyone enjoyed it. He acknowledges that his team was just short in critical moments but sees this as an opportunity to improve. He's proud of the way his team fought and notes that this fighting spirit is the character they need to bring to every game, feeling they showed it tonight. He comments on the nature of the pitch in Chattogram, where it's easier to bat in the powerplay but gets harder as the game progresses, which was evident in both innings. He credits the opposing team's bowling in the last 4-5 overs, acknowledging they bowled brilliantly and took crucial wickets at important junctures, which were their best chances in the game.
Time for the Presentation Ceremony...
Earlier in the game, despite Ireland’s explosive start of 75/1 in the powerplay led by Paul Stirling and Tim Tector, Bangladesh staged a strong comeback to restrict the visitors to 170. Mahedi Hasan turned the tide with a brilliant spell of 3/25, dismissing the Tector brothers and Ben Calitz, while Tanzim Hasan Sakib kept things tight with 1/17. Later, Lorcan Tucker helped rebuild the innings and helped the visitors to get to 170.
Ireland's bowling was solid, but it was Matthew Humphreys' and  Josh Little's expensive spell that proved costly. Mark Adair and George Dockrell took crucial wickets, but Ireland's inability to contain runs ultimately hurt them. Bangladesh's batters capitalized on the loose deliveries, and it showed in the end result.
Bangladesh got off to a flying start, with their openers adding 26 for the first wicket inside 3 overs, setting the tone for an aggressive chase. Litton Das and Parvez Hossain Emon kept the momentum going, putting on back-to-back half-century partnerships for the 2nd and 3rd wickets, keeping the asking rate in check. Though Bangladesh lost wickets in quick succession in the middle, Saif's brisk cameo at the end proved to be the masterstroke, guiding the hosts home.
Bangladesh have done it! They've broken their losing streak at home in T20Is and leveled the series 1-1, thanks to a brilliant half-century from their skipper, Litton Das and a strong finish from Mohammad Saifuddin. The hosts showed great resilience in chasing down the target, and it was a nail-biter until the end. Now, the series is wide open, with all to play for in the final game.

OUT! HRIDOY IS RUN OUT! This is excellent from Lorcan Tucker. Humphreys delivers it short, just outside off. Nurul Hasan dabs it with soft hands toward the off side. Tawhid Hridoy is the man who calls for the single, but Lorcan Tucker takes his right hand's gloves off, charges toward the ball, turns and hits it directly toward the stump. The third umpire sees that Tawhid Hridoy is at a full stretch dive, but he is just a few inches from reaching the popping crease.
