Bangladesh T20I skipper Shakib Al Hasan failed to capitalise on his start as he departed for a 17-ball 19 to leave Tigers four down for 64 in pursuit of 154 in the T20I opener against Afghanistan at the Sylhet International Cricket Stadium on Friday.  

Shakib slashed a short and wide delivery by pacer Fareed Ahmad straight to deep-point in the 11th over. The dismissal came straight after the drinks break.

Bangladesh still need 84 runs from 54 balls to win.
