Bangladesh have really pulled out the rabbit out of the hat. They started off with the spinners and it paid rich dividends as they sent back the openers cheaply. None of the Irish batsmen got going and the Bangladeshi spinners continued to pile on the pressure. Kevin O Brien and Andre Botha strung together a good partnership, but Shafiul Islam broke the partnership and ran through the tail to complete a thrilling 27 run victory for the Tigers. This victory was their first against the Irish in all ICC tournaments and they have kept themselves alive in the competition.
Man of the Match: Tamim Iqbal for his 44 and the catch of Niall O Brien
