Dhaka: The cricketers also had a lot of holiday spirit on Friday's holiday. The second ODI match of the series was a day later. The team was stressed after losing the first one to Bangladesh. In such a situation, the Ireland women's cricket team had a great experience today. The Irish girls experienced riding a rickshaw for the first time in their lives.

The cricketers of the Ireland team and the coaching staff also experienced riding a rickshaw, a popular vehicle in Bangladesh. The Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) made this arrangement for the visiting team.

Several rickshaws were brought to Mirpur Stadium on Friday afternoon. And a little later, the players of the Irish women's cricket team got on the rickshaws. They did not hesitate to get on. Then everyone had a lot of fun together.

Many of the cricketers also took pictures with the rickshaw pullers. Many others drove rickshaws. They realized that playing cricket is not as easy as driving a rickshaw.

These rickshaws took the cricketers out of the stadium and onto the streets of Mirpur. Irish girls roamed the empty streets on Friday, a holiday.

They will enter the field tomorrow, Saturday, November 30, in the morning of the second ODI with this joy. The match starts at 10 am at the Mirpur ground. Bangladesh won the first ODI of the series by a big margin of 154 runs, and Nigar Sultana Jyoti's team is leading.

225 runs on the last day. What else is there in modern cricket! However, Bangladesh has made their job difficult by losing 7 wickets. So, the loss is more eye-catching for Mehedi Hasan Miraj's team than the victory on the last day.

Bangladesh lost 7 wickets in one session in the late afternoon. Playing for a target of 334 runs, they have managed to score a total of 109 runs so far.

The morning of the fourth day started with a surprise. Bangladesh, who ended the third day with 269 runs for the loss of 9 wickets, declared their innings in the morning. They started the day with the ball in hand.

Taking advantage of the morning conditions, the bowlers put the Windies under pressure. Taskin Ahmed led from the front. He took 6 wickets for the cost of 64 runs. This was his first fiver in his Test career. With his career-best bowling, Mehedi Hasan Miraj took 2 wickets and Shariful-Taijul Islam took one wicket each, Bangladesh bundled out the Windies for 152 runs. The target stood at 334 runs.

If they chase this target, it will be a record. The highest run chase by Bangladesh in the fourth innings in a Test is 217. To win, they will have to score 117 more runs than the record set in 2009 with 4 sessions to spare.

However, the two openers failed to achieve that goal as usual. Zakir Hasan and Mahmudul Hasan returned to the dressing room in single figures. Even after that, Shahadat Hossain also returned quickly. Even though he reached double figures, Mominul Haque was out shortly after. Bangladesh lost 4 wickets after scoring 23 runs.

From there, Mehedi Hasan Miraj tried to cope with the pressure with a 36-run partnership along with Liton Das. When Liton was out for the team on 59 runs, Bangladesh was in trouble again. Then Miraj fought back with Zaker Ali. That pair came up with 43 runs. Miraj's departure broke the pair on 46. Then Taijul Islam also departed before the end of the day. Bangladesh ended the day losing 7 wickets for 109 runs. Zaker is now on the wicket with 15 runs and Hasan Mahmud is unbeaten on 0 runs.

Brief scores:

West Indies 1st innings: 450/9 declared.

Bangladesh 1st innings: 269/9 declared.

West Indies 2nd innings: 152/10

Bangladesh 2nd innings: 109/7, 31 overs (Miraj 46, Zaker 15*; Roach 3/20, Seals 3/31)

The day before, Australia's defeat was confirmed. But there can be disagreement about when it happened. It was confirmed only after getting the target of 534 runs, which in modern cricket, no one has been able to score even close to that in the fourth innings. Or you can say that it was confirmed after losing 3 wickets for 12 runs.

Whatever it was today was just a formality. India has done that too. They have all out the Aussies for 238 runs. And with that, a huge victory of 295 runs has come into their hands.

Despite losing three wickets, Australia has been attacking every day today. The start was not good, however. Usman Khawaja, the unbeaten batsman of the previous day, went to pull off Mohammad Siraj's ball. At that time, the second over of the day was being played. He failed in that, and was caught by Rishav Pant. Khawaja's innings ended for 4 runs.

Then Travid Head came to the wicket. Smith's partnership with him was really solid. The two added 62 runs to the team's scoreboard for the fifth wicket. However, their partnership was also broken by Mohammad Siraj. Smith caught Rishav Pant behind the wicket with his delivery.

However, Head was in the mood to counter-attack from the beginning. Until the lunch break, he played most of the balls for Australia, and also scored most of their runs in this session. He hit 7 fours in 72 balls, scoring 63 runs.

They started the second session better. Head and Marsh together took 50 runs in 8 overs. After that, Jasprit Bumrah came back and returned Head. When he returned for 89 runs, Australia's sixth wicket partnership of 82 runs was broken.

After his departure, Mitchell Marsh and Mitchell Starc fought together for quite some time. However, both of them departed before the tea break. India finished their work by taking the remaining two wickets in the last session of the day. Border-Gavaskar Trophy: India take 1-0 lead in the series with a win in the first match.

Brief scores:

India 150 and 487/6 (Jaiswal 161, Kohli 100*; Lyon 2/96).

Australia 104 and 238 (Head 89, Marsh 47; Bumrah 3/42, Siraj 3/51, Sundar 2/48)
