Cricket is known to be the game of uncertainties and the same we have seen here in Dhaka on Sunday as the home team beat England cricket team for the first time in their Test Cricket History. In a dramatic fashion, England has lost all their 10 wickets in a single session. The hero of the game was young Mehedi Hasan who was playing his second ever test match and proved to be unplayable to the English batsman.
With this win of 108 runs, both teams are now sharing the series winning 1 match each. In a surprising event, the game was ended in just 3 days. English was trailing a score of 273 but they were all bowled out on 164 despite giving a good start of hundred plus by the England opening pair Alastair Cook and Ben Duckett.
Bangladesh got the status of test playing a nation in 2000 and since then it is their 8th test match win but first ever against the cricket discovering nation England. The standard of Bangladesh cricket in ODIs we better know.
"It's a great moment for Bangladesh cricket. It was up and down and you never knew which team would win," said jubilant captain Mushfiqur Rahim.
"The coach was a bit fired up at tea. We didn't bowl too well. Then they tried to bowl in good areas and did really well. The bowlers did a great job.
"We didn't think Mehedi will shine like this. He's a good batsman as well and hopefully will be a great all-rounder for Bangladesh."
