Zaheer sizzles as India win series against Bangladesh

Postby admin » Wed Jan 27, 2010 10:55 am

Mirpur (Bangladesh), Jan 27 (PTI) Zaheer Khan produced a devastating spell of swing bowling to decimate Bangladesh with a career-best seven for 87 as India crushed the hosts by 10 wickets in the second cricket Test and clinch the two-match series 2-0 here today.

After putting up stiff resistance yesterday, Bangladesh succumbed to a spectacular batting collapse today with Zaheer wreaking havoc, especially with his grasp of reverse swing.

Resuming on 228 for three, there was no hint of the hosts' impending doom as they saw through the first 19 overs without any hiccup.

Harbhajan Singh earned the breakthrough for India by removing overnight batsman Shahadat Hossain but it was Zaheer, who broke the back of the home side claiming three wickets in fours balls in the penultimate over before lunch as the home side collapsed for 312.
