2023.12.17
Bangladesh U-19 created history on Sunday, winning their first-ever U-19 Asia Cup by beating UAE U-19 by a mammoth margin of 196 runs in the final.
The youthful Tigers dominated with the bat at first, accumulating 282-8 in their fifty overs until the bowlers skittled UAE out for 87.
With the bat, Ashiqur Rahman Shibli was once again the hero for Bangladesh, reaching 129 off 149 balls for his second ton of the tournament.
Shibli was assisted by Chowdhury Md Rizwan, who struck 60 off 71 balls, and Ariful Islam, who scored 50 off 40 balls to help Bangladesh post a good total.
Shibli also finished as the tournament’s leading run-getter, with 378 runs scored at a whopping 126 runs per inning in five innings pitched.
In response, the Bangladesh pacers got the ball to speak as the UAE hitters struggled throughout.
In the first ten overs, they lost four top-order wickets and wickets at regular intervals.
