Sylhet, March 20 (Ians) Rain resulted in a washout of the second Odi between Bangladesh and Ireland in Sylhet after Mushfiqur Rahim slammed the fastest century by a batter from the hosts in the format, which in turn propelled them to post their highest-ever Odi total in 349/6, breaking the record of 338 they set in the first match of the series on Saturday.
Rahim reached the landmark on the final ball of Bangladesh’s innings. His 60-ball hundred, laced with 14 fours and two sixes at a strike-rate of 166.66, was enough to better the previous best record of a 63-ball ton by Shakib Al Hasan, which came against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo in 2009.
Rahim’s hundred came from number after he walked in to bat in the 34th over of the innings. He also got to 7000 Odi runs, becoming the third Bangladesh batter after Shakib and Tamim Iqbal to reach the landmark. Rahim now has nine Odi centuries,...
