Bangladesh, Afghanistan share Tri-nation series trophy after rain washed out final

Men in Blue made history by securing a record third Men's T20 World Cup title and becoming the first-ever team to defend the title and win it as a home nation following a brilliant 96-run win over New Zealand at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday.

Through the partnership, IGPL's leading players, determined by the league's rankings at agreed points during the season, will earn places in various International Series events across the calendar.

Bangladesh pacer Nahid Rana heaped praise on the team's fast bowling coach, Shaun Tait, describing him as an outstanding mentor who supports players both professionally and personally.

Chasing a modest target of 115 runs, the Bangla Tigers achieved that in 15.1 overs with the opener batter Tanzid Hasan Tamim playing an unbeaten knock of 67 runs off just 42 balls. He hit seven fours and five sixes in his impressive knock.

Cricket Australia CEO Todd Greenberg has stated that the board still intends to include a pink-ball Test in the 2029-30 men's Ashes series, despite recent reports suggesting a day-night match had already been ruled out, as per ESPNcricinfo.
