Mahmudul ton ensures young Tigers’ victory

A brilliant 224-ball 114 from batsman Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Towhid Hridoy's 76 runs off 145 balls ensured Bangladesh Under-19s win the second and final four-day Youth Test against their England counterparts by three wickets at the Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram today.

The young Tigers started the day with a challenging task ahead of them as they required another 299 runs on the last day of the Test to win the game. However, Mahmudul's magnificent century and a valuable fifty from Hridoy ensured the young Tigers' triumph.
