Afghanistan thrashed Bangladesh by 200 runs in a one-sided ODI clash after a brilliant all-round performance in which their batsmen and bowlers dominated from start to finish.

After winning the toss and choosing to bat first, Afghanistan put up a strong total of 293 for 9 in 50 overs. Ibrahim Zadran played a classy knock of 95 runs off 111 balls, anchoring the innings beautifully. Veteran all-rounder Mohammad Nabi provided the late fireworks with a blazing 62 off just 37 balls, while Rahmanullah Gurbaz added 42 runs at the top of the order.

Bangladesh’s bowlers had a tough day. Hasan Mahmud and Tanvir Islam took two wickets each, but they were expensive as Afghanistan’s batsmen kept the scoreboard ticking.
