Talking about the match between India and Bangladesh, at Dhaka, Mahmudullah and in-form Miraz laid the foundation for a challenging total in the 50-over contest.

Miraz is the second batter to score a century while batting at No.8 or lower in the 50-over format.

Miraz remained unbeaten on 100 off 83 balls as Das-led Bangladesh managed to post 271-7 in 50 overs.
