Tanzid Hasan, Mehedi Hasan Power Bangladesh To 2-1 T20I Series Win Over Sri Lanka

India.com17-07-2025
BAN vs SL: Tanzid Hasan Tamim's unbeaten 73 and Mehedi Hasan's career-best spell help Bangladesh seal dominant eight-wicket win. Tanzid produced a career-best T20I knock, while Mehedi Hasan starred with the ball as Bangladesh outclassed Sri Lanka by eight wickets in the third T20I on Wednesday (July 16) to seal the three-match series 2-1.
Bangladesh Wrap Up Series with Clinical Win
After electing to bat first, Sri Lanka struggled to post a competitive total. Bangladesh comfortably chased down the 133-run target with 21 balls remaining, thanks to Tamim's fireworks and steady partnerships at the top.
Mehedi Spins A Web Around Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka started their innings on a positive note, scoring 14 runs in the opening over. However, the momentum was quickly broken. Mehedi Hasan bowled a game-changing spell, picking up 4 wickets for just 11 runs the best figures of his T20I career.
Shoriful Islam struck in the first over, removing the dangerous Kusal Mendis. Mehedi then ran through the middle order, dismissing Kusal Perera, Dinesh Chandimal, and captain Charith Asalanka in quick succession. Pathum Nissanka fought back with 46 runs but lacked support from the rest. Kamindu Mendis chipped in with a 15-ball 21, and Dasun Shanaka finished with a quickfire unbeaten 35 to push the total to 132/7 in 20 overs.
Tamim's Career-Best Seals the Deal
Bangladesh's chase started on a shaky note as Parvez Hossain Emon was trapped lbw by Nuwan Thushara on the very first ball. But Tamim, alongside skipper Litton Das, stitched a 74-run stand to steady the innings.
Das scored a solid 32 before being caught by Kusal Perera off Kamindu Mendis. Tamim, however, continued unfazed. He combined with Towhid Hridoy to add an unbeaten 59-run partnership and finish the chase with ease.
Tamim remained unbeaten on 73 off 47 balls, smashing six sixes and one boundary. Hridoy supported him well with a steady 27 not out.
With this win, Bangladesh capped off their T20I campaign on a high, showing strong team performance in both batting and bowling departments.

ZIM vs SA: South Africa's Van Schalkwyk becomes first double centurion in Youth ODIs

South Africa's Jorich van Schalkwyk became the first batter to score a double century in a Youth One-Day International (Y-ODI) when he smashed 215 off 153 balls against Zimbabwe in Harare on Friday. Opener Van Schalkwyk, 18, who's innings contained 19 fours and six sixes, beat the previous record of 191 by Sri Lanka's Hasitha Boyagoda against Kenya in 2018. It comes after the right-hander hit a South African record 164 against Bangladesh on Tuesday, which he has now beaten and taken the overall YODI top score to boot.

Fastest T20I centuries: Where does Tim David stand in the top-10 list?

Tim David (Screengrab) In a record-breaking display of power hitting, Tim David lit up Warner Park in Basseterre with a breathtaking 102 not out off just 37 balls, registering the fastest T20I century ever by an Australian. His innings came during the third T20I against West Indies on Friday, propelling Australia to a six-wicket victory in just 16.1 overs while chasing a stiff 215-run target. David came in at the end of the powerplay and unleashed his full range of shots almost immediately. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! After reaching his half-century in a blistering 16 balls, Australia's fastest T20I fifty, he continued to dominate the West Indies bowlers, especially taking Gudakesh Motie for four consecutive sixes in a 28-run over. His 100 came off 37 deliveries, equalling the likes of India's Abhishek Sharma and Hungary's Sheikh Rasik on the all-time fastest centuries list. This knock surpasses Josh Inglis's 43-ball ton as the fastest ever by an Australian. Among Full Member nations, only David Miller and Rohit Sharma (35 balls) have faster T20I centuries.

While names like Sahil Chauhan (27 balls) of Estonia and Muhammad Fahad (29 balls) of Turkey top the list, David's innings was in elite company and against a top-tier opponent, adding weight to his achievement.
