9pm: Mashrafe collects the trophy and is joined by his team-mates. Zimbabwe have been killed off again. And a toy tiger joins the celebrations as well. Many thanks for your company and comments. Kept me on my toes. Do watch out for analyses from Mohammad Isam. Be back for the T20 series. Until then, goodbye and good night!
Presentation:
Chigumbura: It is disappointing once again. We thought they may score 300-plus score but we kept them to about 270 and managed to pull it back. But again we lost wickets and that's always difficult. T20 is a different version and we have to play different cricket.
Tamim is the Man of the Match. Here he is again: I think I was batting well from the first game. I din't get the big score. We started well with me and Imrul and Mustafiz finished it. There is always room for improvement. We have won the series, so no complaints.
Mushfiqur, Man of the Series: We have really worked hard and it has paid off. The bowlers did their job and the top order did well. It is not an easy wicket to chase. Mustafiz and Al-Amin had lots of overs in the end. It is really pleasing for our team.
Mashrafe: We don't have Shakib, so we have to keep changing bowlers. The dressing room is relaxed. Thanks to the supporters for coming and helping us.
8:40pm : Mashrafe leads his team off the field. Another dominant display from Bangladesh. Mustafiz struck with his second ball to ride his car through Chamu's gate, and also dismissed the other opener - Chakabva. Zimbabwe, however, recovered through Williams and Chigumbura who added 80 together. Williams, benefiting from a couple of reprieves, went on to score the first fifty by a Zimbabwe player this series, but Mustafiz (off)cut his way through the lower order to claim his third five-wicket haul in his ninth ODI.
Tamim: "We have been playing well for the last one year. Hats off to Mustafiz again. Everybody chipped in. When you win games you get confidence. We had planed well and execute it well. The ODIs are over and T20 is a different ball game. With the T20 World Cup coming up, the two T20s are important for us. BPL is happening and that is important for us."
Mohammad Islam: "Mash for Man of the Tournament...Mash for President....Mash for Prime Minister!"
preetom: "expected mustafiz to be the man of the match"
Mahfuz: "What a Banglawash."
Aftiar: "Interesting stat: No Bangladeshi batsmen got out by LBW in this series!"
