The 2nd ODI between Bangladesh and Afghanistan is scheduled to take place at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on July 8 with the match set to begin at 01:30 pm IST.
Bangladesh had a disappointing start to their ODI series against Afghanistan, as they suffered a 17-run defeat (DLS Method) in the first match. Towhid Hridoy and Litton Das were the leading run-scorers for Bangladesh, contributing 51 and 26 runs each. However, the rest of the batting lineup struggled, with the rest of the players who batted were dismissed for under 15 runs. This poor performance with the bat resulted in Bangladesh setting a target of 169/9 for Afghanistan in 43 overs, with rain interruptions affecting the match.
As the game progressed, Bangladesh’s bowlers struggled to make breakthroughs, managing to take only two wickets in the first 22 overs. Eventually, due to the unfavorable conditions and the opposition’s strong position, Afghanistan emerged victorious through the DLS method.
