Litton, who had struggled in the first match, returned to form with a steady 40 off 32 deliveries, hitting three boundaries and one six. At No. 3, Najmul Hossain Shanto, replacing the injured Parvez Hossain Emon, made a handy contribution of 27 off 19 balls, including two fours and a six.
Towhid Hridoy provided late impetus with a powerful 45 off 24 balls, which featured three sixes and two fours, helping Bangladesh cross the 200-mark.
