I have seen Bangladesh perform very well in ODI matches, meanwhile Ireland bowled a basket of 320 runs against Ireland but Bangladesh completed it and won. Although some overs were suspended due to light rain, Bangladesh's Nazmul Hasan's performance was calm. Although Ireland's Tector performed very well, he could not snatch victory for the team as Ireland's bowling line is much weaker than Bangladesh's. Ireland in particular lost five wickets during their 167 run but meanwhile Bangladesh were very aware that their wickets were very low during this period. Bangladesh proved to be strong again against Ireland.
Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bat when the 50-over match was scheduled for 45 overs due to rain. Initially, it seemed that winning the toss and batting was a good decision for Bangladesh, but later that idea proved wrong.
The Irish batsmen did not do well in the early stages but finished well in the latter end. Especially Harry Tector and George Dockrell's great batting eventually saw Ireland's score stand at 319 after 45 overs. That is, the target for Bangladesh is 320 where Bangladesh should have scored more than 7 runs per over. But Bangladesh has learned to handle that pressure.
Although the opening pair did not perform well, the middle order carried the responsibility very well. Responsible batting by Shakib Al Hasan, Nazmul Hossain Shanto, Towhid Hridoy, and Mushfiqur Rahim saw Bangladesh take a three-wicket win with only 3 balls in hand.
Undoubtedly, this match will give confidence to Bangladesh for the World Cup.
