The big factor was the toss in the Sharjah field. Those who won the toss in the previous two matches and batted first also won the match. In the series deciding match, the toss came in favor of Bangladesh, batting first. But this calculation did not work this time. Afghanistan won the series with the bat of Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Azmatullah Omarzair. According to the acting captain of Bangladesh, Mehdi Hasan Miraj, the ball was a bit of a problem later that day!
Analyzing the loss at the end of the match, Miraj said whether it was because of the dew that it was easier for them to bat at night, ‘We have seen the ball move around the wicket in the last two matches, that’s why we wanted to bat earlier. Some dew fell today. So the ball was coming to the bat very easily.’
However, he gave credit to the opponent, ‘I will give them the credit. They played very well, especially Gurbaz and Omarzai.’
Or the scenario of the match does not inform him. The behavior of the wicket was the same as in the previous two matches, but today the pitch was quite good for batting even during the day. Even after Mahmudullah and Miraj put on 145 runs for the fifth wicket, the team did not cross 250. Mirage scored a slow fifty off 106 balls. The number of slug shots for Mahmudullah’s century at the end was low.
