Watch: Karim Janat takes last-over hat-trick, concedes boundaries either side as Bangladesh edge Afghanistan in thriller | BAN vs AFG

Watch: Karim Janat was at the centre of a thrilling last over in the first Bangladesh-Afghanistan T20I where he took a hat-trick but wasn’t able to prevent the hosts from getting over the line today (July 14) in Sylhet.

Bangladesh won the toss in the first T20I of the two-match series in Sylhet and elected to field first. They made early inroads as the first four Afghanistan wickets fell for 52 runs to four different Bangladesh bowlers.

Mohammad Nabi then resurrected the Afghan innings at No.5, scoring an unbeaten 40-ball 54. He was supported by Najibullah Zadran and Azmatullah Omarzai as the visitors managed to cross 150 and ended with 154-7 from their 20 overs.
