Nazmul hit 101 off 102 balls with eight boundaries as the touring side, which managed a hard-fought one-wicket victory in the first game against the same opponents, piled up 313 for seven in 50 overs.

Irfan Shukkur's 60 and Anamul Haque's 58 were the other notable scores in the H{ innings.

Daniel McKell claimed for wickets.

In reply, the local side could manage only 243 before being bowled out despite Jacob Dickman's 105.

Mohammad Saifuddin was the highest wicket-taker for the touring side by taking four wickets for 36 runs in eight overs.

The two teams will meet today in the third one-day match at the same venue.
