T20I World Cup: Bangladesh emerged victorious, securing their first win in the ICC Men's T20I World Cup by narrowly defeating Sri Lanka by two wickets, here at the Grand Prairie Stadium.

The Bangladeshi team displayed nerves of steel, chasing down a modest target of 125 with just six balls to spare and two wickets in hand.

The star of the show was young spinner Rishad Hossain, whose career-best performance earned him the Player of the Match award. Rishad's impressive figures of 3/22 were pivotal in restricting Sri Lanka to a total of 124/9.
