Mahedi Hasan Shines as Bangladesh Clinches Historic T20I Series Win Over Sri Lanka 

    Colombo, March 2024-off-spenner Mahedi Hasan performed a match, which claimed the 4-of-carrier service figure for 11, when Bangladesh won his first T20i series against Sri Lanka with a win at eight-vitis at R Premadasa stage. Visitors took a three-match series 2-1, marking an important milestone in T20i history.

 

Master's Stroke of Litton: Like Mahdi X-Factor

Bangladesh captain Litton Das revealed that he had placed the Mahdi for the Colombo Society to see the tour schedule, and knew the spinner's ability to take advantage of the swing tracks. His faith was repaid in style as Mahdi destroyed the Srilankan top order, removing Kusal Perera in his first over before dismissing Dinesh Chandimal in Powerplay.

Since January 2021, Mahedi has taken 30 powerplay weeks - the most of any spinner in T20i - heated his efficiency with a new ball.

Litton said after the match, "We felt that Mahdi's skill would be perfect for Colombo conditions." "I planned from the beginning of being my first choice here. That doesn't mean Mehidi [Hasan Miraj] is not a big player, but as the captain I should consider the pitch and then choose."

Celebrate back to celebrate

Mainedi's heroine was particularly sweet after being torn the first two T20 years after expensive mantras against UAE and Pakistan in May. The West Indies had a snub despite being a series player in Whitewash 3–0 in December last year.

     "I always believed in this team," said Litton, who reflects the historical victory. "This is a proud moment -our first T20I series victory in Sri Lanka. Fans deserve this happiness."

Batting collapses is a matter of concern

While Bangladesh celebrated his T20i victory, Litton admitted that batting collapsed, plagued him in other formats. They were removed for 94 (II T20I), 186 (Third Odi) and 167 (1 ODI), which highlights weaknesses in the intermediate order.

          Litton admitted: "We didn't play badly, but collapse hurt us." "The bats should take responsibility - some have to launch a liaison anchor."

 

Litton returns to shape

          During the example, the skipper won 83 races in the second T20i, and broke his long white ball recession with 50-fee 76. His 32 in Dickider chased further after an early vobb.

          Litton said, "Hunger left me- I didn't score, so I was waiting for my opportunity." "Everything changes everything by winning. The team now thinks that if we play our best, we can beat anyone."

 

In front of the road

          With speed on them, Bangladesh will look at this success and take advantage of match winners like Mahidi, and record their SLO deviation. Currently, meditation is to taste a historical achievement in the T20I tour.
