Bangladesh beat USA by 10 wickets
The series trophy has been handed over to USA, Monank Patel. Hope you enjoyed the coverage. That is all from this side. That's goodbye for now.
Aaron Jones says they didn't asses the pitch well. Adds it was matter of shot selection as they played a couple of poor shots. Tells they are now looking forward to the World Cup, they are confident, they want to do the basics well.
Najmul Hossain Shanto says the boys showed a lot of character as they executed the plan. Adds they are disappointed as they didn't play well in the series but are happy to get some experience here.
Mustafizur Rahman wins the Player of the Match and the Player of the Series award.
...Presentation...
The pitch was tailor made for someone like Mustafizur Rahman who got a lot of assists from it but USA after winning two games were expected to play better. However, they'll be confident overall off this series, knowing they have beaten a Test playing nation. Both teams tried and twisted a couple of things and looks set for the upcoming World Cup. A historic moment though for USA and a proud moment for their team.
A complete performance by Bangladesh but they wished for a performance like this a bit earlier in the series. They lose the series but this is a statement win by them going into the World Cup. The win was set up by bowlers, mainly Mustafizur Rahman who took 6 wickets. The Fizz was at his best today with his slower balls and off-cutters. USA on the other hand found it hard today to get going. They kept losing wickets regularly and never looked in a winning position in the game.
