Afghanistan vs Bangladesh, 3rd ODI - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

5th ODI series win on the bounce for Afghanistan as the players pose with the trophy. Thorough domination from them after suffering a 3-0 cleansweep in the T20Is. We hope you had great fun following all 6 games of this white-ball series. Until next time, cheers and goodbye!!

Hashmatullah Shahidi | Afghanistan skipper: Very happy with the performance of the team. We were struggling with fast bowlers previously, Bilal bowled really well and Omarzai bowled really well all series and in the future this will make our team balance stronger. We do not get many opportunities to play red-ball cricket and we are all raring to go against the Zimbabwe next.

Mehidy Hasan | Bangladesh skipper: We have to accept that we have not been playing well. They are a good bowling unit and we need to handle ourselves better with the bat. We are going to play against West Indies later and we are a bit worried about our batting. We have to take responsibility at the top of the order and need to see how we can get better

Ibrahim Zadran | Player of the Series: It hurt me a lot (on missing out on the hundred), but my focus on trying to give my 100 percent for the team. Whenever we (with Gurbaz) bat together, we trust each other and back each other. We enjoy batting a lot. I was trying to execute whatever I learnt from the practice and tried to apply myself.

Bilal Sami | Player of the Match: I have been working hard on my game and I had the backing of my team, it was not easy because we have plenty of options with the ball and glad that I could deliver today.

22:27 local, 18:27 GMT, 23:57 IST: In all honesty, the game was pretty much done and dusted when Afghanistan posted a mammoth 293 on the board. Given the venue history and nature of today's surface, it surely was a tall mountain to climb for Bangladesh. Only Saif Hassan found some timing, but the rest couldn't get going against the brilliance of Bilal Sami and Rashid Khan, backed up by excellent fielding as well. Only one double-digit score in the entire line-up, and for the second time in a row they were all-out inside 30 overs, failing to get past the 110-mark while at it. Bangladesh pacers proved too expensive today and on a surface that was aiding spin and slower ball variations, they ended up conceding 113 runs in 14.2 overs. If today was all about their bad bowling, it was their batting that let them down in the first 2 games. Stick around for the post-match reactions...

Bilal Sami to Hasan Mahmud, out Caught by Ikram Alikhil!! Maiden five-for Bilal Sami. He digs it short and Hasan Mahmud's ambitious pull shot only manages the top-edge to the left of the keeper. A massive 200-run win for Afghanistan as they cleansweep Bangladesh 3-0 in the ODI series. It is the biggest win (by margin of runs) in ODIs in Abu Dhabi. Hasan Mahmud c Ikram Alikhil b Bilal Sami 9(23) [4s-1]
