Live Cricket Score: Bangladesh v Afghanistan, final, Dhaka
Afghanistan would be sweating over the fitness of their spearhead, Rashid Khan
Rain ruins summit clash; trophy shared
Oh, bad news as the match has been called off due to wet outfield. Even though the rain stopped, there wasn't sufficient time to clear the puddles and make the ground ready for play. Such a shame as it could have been a cracker of a contest.The trophy will be shared by the two sides.
In case we don't have a game today, the trophy will be shared as there isn't a reserve day.
Rain, rain...
Live pictures indicate the rain to be pretty steady and puddles are building up on the covers. However, the drainage facility is pretty good at the ground.
According to our correspondent, Atif Azam, it is raining at the moment in Dhaka. Fingers-crossed, we will have a full game.
Build up:
Summit clash. Afghanistan versus Bangladesh. It is going to be a festive atmosphere in Dhaka where the home side's fans will anticipate nothing less than a triumph. However, the Rashid Khan-led side is a force to reckon with in the shortest format of the game.
The cornerstones of Afghanistan's line-up - Nabi and Rashid - have made vital contributions. Gurbaz, at the top of the order, has also made an impact. Afghanistan, though, would sweat on the fitness of Rashid, who is down with a hamstring. Meanwhile, the home team would again depend on their senior batsmen like Shakib, Mushfiqur and Co. to give the solid platform. Saifuddin's fine show with the ball is a major plus for Bangladesh.
Toss and teams in a while...
