Shakib Al Hasan collects the trophy and then takes it to his team mates and the celebrations begin. They deserve this win and they will celebrate long into the night. They pose for photographs in front of the banner. It's a happy lot.
Shakib Al Hasan (Bangladesh Captain):" I didn't think there was nerves. We are always as confident about this match. It is hard for the spinner to bowl. We got start and we always believe that will chase. Dry wicket, the ball comes in the bat nicely. A bit of a moment on for the seamer and we lucky win the toss. Yes, today was a day as much as possible to make the younger guys' job done. Yes, definitely most of the guys are playing ODI's and part of World T20's also."
Player of the Match and Player of the Series: Shakib Al Hasan
Rashid Khan(Afghanistan Captain): "We can't make an excuse of the weather as a team. T20 is all about skills and we didn't do it well, I think we failed as a batting group today, the ball was doing a bit in the second innings too. To be honest it's just like we need to know about our roles, and our capacities and we need to control our emotions.
If we do that well then we can be a good side. Taking the decision is also important when to rotate the strike, and when to go for shots. These are the things we are lacking, we need to work on them and get better. The mindset was to stay in the game, till the end of the game. The effort is important, I said the boys that if we get 2 wickets in the 9th over then we can make a good comeback.
Yeah, in an hour or two I am leaving for the United States."

Shamim Hossain finished the match in style....
16.1 W Momand to S Hossain
4 FOUR!!!! That's it... Bangladesh have won this game by 6 wickets. Around the wicket. Back of the length delivery angling into the middle stump line, Hossain clears his front leg and heaves it towards the deep mid-wicket region, the ball just bounces in front of the boundary cushions and goes for four runs!!! It has been a good day for the Bangladesh fans, as earlier in the day Bangladesh Women beat India Women and now Bangladesh's men's team has won the game against Afghanistan. They have whitewashed the T20I Series.
Bangladesh need 4 runs off the last over.
