Bangladesh put into bat at Dubai today was rolled over for 73 in exactly 15 overs by Australia. The Aussies made a meal of the paltry score by the Tigers , and reached the target with 82 balls to spare , to win by 8 wickets.
Only 3 Bangladesh batters scored double figures, Skipper Muhamadulla 16 , Mohd Naim Sheik 17 , and the talented Shamim Hossain 19.
Adam Zampa took 5 for 19 , missed a hat trick in the process , Mathew Wade dropped a catch hence Zampa missed the rare opportunity.
Australia needed to get to the target in 8 .1 overs to go ahead of South Africa in the points table. Finch got 40 , Warner 18 , and Mitch Marsh 16 off 6 balls did the job for Australia.
We bid good bye to Bangladesh in this tournament.
