2nd T20I, Bangladesh Women tour of Ireland at Dublin, Jun 29 2018
BAN Women won by 4 wkts (5b rem)

For the second day running its a last over win for Bangladesh, completing their second 4 wicket win of the tour. Shamima Sultana and Fargana Hoque set the platform and even though there was a clatter of wickets at the end, the Irish total was never going to be enough to challenge Bangladesh Plus smashing the ball over the boundary is always a nice way to finish the match. With that Bangladesh take a 2-0 lead in the series, with only one game to go means that they have won the series.

The final game will be this Sunday, 2pm at Sydney Parade in Dublin. So hopefully you'll join me then. As Malahide gets ready for the other part of today's double header. This is Justin Smyth saying goodbye for now.

Richardson to Sanjida Islam, SIX, That's it, its all over! Its a good length ball and it's in the right place for Islam. She swings hard at the ball and pulls it over the square leg boundary. The Umpires have to check with the Tv camera's,just made it over the rope
