Bangladesh were around 120 for 6 down at a moment, experienced batter Mahmudullah Riyad and last game’s player of the match Mehidy Hasan Miraz were fighting to tackle the batting collapse. One of the commentators Matt Kabir Floyd shared his thought about the game with Cricfrenzy during that time of the match on Wednesday.

Bangladesh would be needing a minimum of 220 to defend in this pitch said Kabir during the conversation, although the Tigers displayed a far better show as they posted 271 on board.

With the help of a 148-runs partnership between Riyad, who played a 77 off 96 balls, and Miraz scored his maiden ton (100* off 83) sailed the Tigers to the mammoth total on Mirpur wicket.

“These two are trying to make a partnership here which is good for the Tigers. From this situation Bangladesh would be needing a minimum of 220 to defend on this pitch” said Kabir to Cricfrenzy.

India captain Rohit Sharma was rushed to the hospital for scans after injuring his left hand while attempting to take a catch of Anamul Haque Bijoy as It happened in the fourth ball of India pacer Mohammed Siraj's second over of Bangladesh's innings.

Rohit being injured and not much of a chance of batting on this wicket, 220 should be enough for the home side, according to the Sky Sports commentator.

“He [Rohit Sharma] is taken to the Hospital I heard, then there’s not much of a chance for him to bat on this wicket, so 220 should be a very fighting score for Bangladesh” he added.

The Tiger duo today broke the all kind of predictions with their astonishing batting, now it’s up to the bowlers to clinch their second consecutive ODI series win over India at home.
