Afghanistan vs Bangladesh, 1st ODI Highlights: Afghanistan beat Bangladesh by 92 runs

The road to next year’s Champions Trophy has officially begun, and cricket fans are in for a treat as Afghanistan and Bangladesh face off in a much-anticipated three-match ODI series in Sharjah, Afghanistan’s adopted home turf. Both teams bring unique challenges and storylines into this series: Bangladesh is playing their first ODI since March, amidst a rocky period following Test losses to South Africa and recent changes in leadership. Their captain Najmul Hossain Shanto has stepped down from leading the Test and T20 sides, while visa issues have sidelined key players Nasum Ahmed and Nahid Rana for the first match.

Afghanistan, on the other hand, is riding high after an impressive ODI series victory against South Africa at this very venue. Led by Hashmatullah Shahidi, they enter as the favourites in Sharjah but know that Bangladesh has won their last three encounters. Will Afghanistan keep their momentum, or can Bangladesh rise above recent setbacks and pull off a series win?

Mustafizur Rahman to Hashmatullah Shahidi, OUT! CHOPPED ON! Mustafizur Rahman finally breaks the stand and gets his fourth wicket. Fizz takes pace off again and just bowls this one on a good length and around the fifth stump line, looking to angle it back in. Hashmatullah Shahidi stays rooted to the crease and just looks to guide it away but the inside edge is found and the ball goes back on to hit the stumps. Shahidi departs after a captain's knock.

18:39 (IST) Nov 06

Is that a run out? This looks close and the third umpire is called in. Oh, the first replays show that Hashmatullah Shahidi might be just inside the line when the bails are completely off. Mushfiqur Rahim did dislodge the bails when the bat was on the line but the bails just came off a second too late. NOT OUT!

Mehidy Hasan to Hashmatullah Shahidi, SAFE! That could have been a very unnecessary way to depart. Tossed up from around the stumps, Shahidi uses his feet and pushes it to the left of extra cover and looks to jog for the single. Rishad Hossain there comes across and gets the left boot in to make the stop and Shahidi has to scamper back. The throw comes in at the keeper's end but Shahidi spaces by the barest of margins.
