Dubai, Sept. 20 -- The first Super Fours clash went right down to the wire as Bangladesh gunned down the 169-run target and sailed to a four-wicket win over Sri Lanka at the ongoing Asia Cup on Saturday in Dubai.

In the final over, when the nerves jangled, it was Bangladesh who stayed composed and savoured the sweet taste of success. With a bitter defeat, Sri Lanka's 8-match winning streak in the T20 Asia Cup came to a bitter end.

While defending a 168-run target, Sri Lanka thought Nuwan Thushara handed them the ideal start by rattling Tanzid Hasan Tamim's stumps and punching his return ticket for a two-ball duck. But Saif Hassan had other intentions, and he spoiled the party for Sri Lanka with his rollicking strokeplay.
