Bangladesh lost the second ODI by 143 runs against Afghanistan at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Saturday.
The emphatic win sealed a maiden ODI series win for the visitors against Bangladesh as they took a 2-0 lead, with the third and final ODI to take place at the same venue on Friday.
The Tigers’ disappointing batting effort in reply to Afghanistan’s 331 came to an end at 189 in 43.2 overs, with Ebadot Hossain absent hurt.
Mushfiqur Rahim’s 85-ball 69 was the only highlight of the innings as he hit six boundaries but his knock only fuelled a lost cause for the Tigers, who had lost half their side for 71 runs after 18 overs.
Fazalhaq Farooqi and Mujeeb Ur Rahman picked up three wickets each, while Rashid Khan scalped two.
