Bangladesh vs Ireland, 1st T20I - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Tanzim Hasan Sakib to Stirling, out Caught by Saif Hassan!! Stirling falls against the run of play! A back of a length delivery around off, Stirling tries to play an expansive shot downtown but only manages to miscue it to the left of short mid-wicket. Saif Hassan moves to his left and gets low to take a safe catch. That came off the toe-end of the bat and hence, the Irish skipper got no real timing on it.
