There was a chance to set the team's highest run record in T20 after ODI. Bangladesh's highest team collection in this format was against Sri Lanka in the 2018 Nidahas Trophy. Tigers scored 215 runs for 5 wickets in that match.
Today (Monday) Bangladesh has made a mountain of runs in the first T20 match against Ireland. However, after scoring 207 runs for 5 wickets in 19.2 overs, the game was stopped due to rain.
Finally the end of the Bangladesh innings has been announced. As a result, the team's highest run record was not broken. But this is Bangladesh's third highest team collection in T20.
It is still raining at Chittagong's Zahoor Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium. As a result, the target was not set in front of Ireland. Targets will be fixed by Duckworth-Lewis method when rain stops.
Ireland could not realize the advantage of winning the toss and taking the fielding. Rather, on the contrary, both Bangladeshi openers were sitting on the Irish bowlers. The two openers put on a devastating partnership of 91 runs in 7.1 overs. Litton played an innings of 47 runs off just 23 balls.
However, Liton could not complete his half-century after getting off to a flying start. Get out to stay 3 runs away. Lytton was caught by Paul Stirling in the first ball of the eighth over of Craig Young's innings. He hit 3 sixes with 4 boundaries.
After a flying start by Liton Das and Roni Talukder, Nazmul Hossain Shanto tried to maintain consistency. He was trying to set the wicket by scoring 14 runs off 13 balls. But Harry falls into the trap of stamping on Tector's ball. The second wicket fell at the head of 118 runs.
