WATCH | Mushfiqur Rahim Brings Out 'Helmet' to Celebrate Bangladesh's ODI Series Win vs Sri Lanka

Mushfiqur Rahim hit the winning runs with a boundary off Maheesh Theekshana as Bangladesh defeated Sri Lanka by 4 wickets in the third ODI at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Monday.

At the prize awarding ceremony, Mushfiqur brought out his helmet as Bangaldesh lifted the trophy.

The clebration was an answer to Sri Lanka’s Angelo Mathews being timed out against Bangladesh due to an helmet issue when Shakib al Hasan had made the unsavoury ‘timed-out’ gestured by pointing to an imagined watch.

In the recently condluded T20I series, Sri Lanka had celebrated their win with a timed-out gesture for the fans.

As for the match, concussion substitute Tanzid Hasan hammered 84 off 81 balls to help Bangladesh beat Sri Lanka in the third one-day international and seal a 2-1 victory in the series.

Opting to bat first, Sri Lanka posted 235 all out in exactly 50 overs courtesy of Janith Liyanage’s 101 off 102 balls for his maiden century.

Soumya Sarkar, who felt neck stiffness and complained of a headache and vision difficulties after his head hit the ground while saving a boundary, was substituted by Tanzid and the replacement proved his worth with an innings laced with nine fours and four sixes to see Bangladesh home with 9.4 overs left.

After Tanzid’s fluent start, Rishad Hossain — one of the three changes made by Bangladesh for the match — struck an unbeaten 18-ball 48 containing five fours and four sixes to steer the hosts to 237-6.

Bangladesh won the first match of the series by six wickets before Sri Lanka leveled with a three-wicket victory, leaving a decider.

The ODI series will be followed by two test matches.
