Afghanistan secured a comfortable victory in the first One-Day International against Bangladesh, winning by 92 runs on Wednesday. The star of the show was Afghanistan's 18-year-old spinner, Allah Ghazanfar, who recorded career-best figures of 6-26.
Ghazanfar's impressive performance effectively dismantled Bangladesh's middle and lower order. At one stage, Bangladesh seemed well-placed to chase down Afghanistan's total of 235, reaching 132/3. However, Ghazanfar's devastating spell saw them collapse to 143 all out.
