Former South Africa pacer Shabnim Ismail created history on Tuesday when she bowled the fastest delivery ever recorded in women's cricket.

For the Tigers to level the series the pacers in particular would have to find a better reply in death overs.

The tale of cricketers who had functioned as finishers in Bangladesh T20 cricket history is a short and painful one. To perceive the difficulty of Jaker Ali Anik’s task, one would have to look no further than Mahmudullah Riyad.

Interestingly, Jaker was not part of the initial T20I squad.

Jaker Ali Anik almost scripted one of the most memorable victories in Twenty20s for Bangladesh with an lionhearted 68 off 34 balls in the first Twenty20 against Sri Lanka yesterday, an innings that displayed his immense potential as a finisher and the poor planning of the Bangladesh team management.

Despite two statement-making fifties from Jaker Ali Anik and Mahmudullah Riyad, Bangladesh fell agonisingly short in the first T20I against Sri Lanka as the Tigers began the three-match series with a three-run defeat at Sylhet International Cricket Stadium yesterday.
