The third and final game of the ODI series between Bangladesh and Afghanistan will be played on February 28. Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram will host this contest.

Bangladesh have already sealed the series after winning the second ODI. A complete all-round performance saw them defeat the Afghan side comprehensively in the second ODI. After electing to bat first, the hosts posted 306 on the board, thanks to a brilliant ton from Liton Das. He was well-supported by Mushfiqur Rahim. The Afghan bowlers struggled to create inroads as they only managed to pick up four wickets.

The Afghan batters failed to adapt to the conditions as a lack of significant partnerships resulted in them getting knocked over on 218 in the 46th over. The wickets were spread among the Bangaldesh’s bowlers as they won the game by 88 runs.
