Bangladesh were sent in to bat by the UAE but the hosts slipped to 83\/4 before Mahmudullah walked in at the Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium on Friday, reports bdnews24.com.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>He kept the sinking ship afloat with a gritty 36 not out, off 27 deliveries, and pushed Bangladesh&#39;s total to a modest 133\/8 with some late fireworks.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Later he picked up two wickets for just five runs in two overs that helped Bangladesh seal a convincing 51-run win. He also took a spectacular catch at point.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;(Mahmudullah) Riyad knows what his role is. He has to bat under pressure most of the time. He has to play with a lot of responsibility especially when the top order does not get runs. He faces a lot of criticism if he can&#39;t give his best,&quot; Mashrafe said.&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mahmudullah coped with the pressure successfully against qualifiers UAE.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;Riyad played a very good innings. It was very important for the team. He is bowling well too nowadays. It will be very good for us if he can keep it up,&quot; said the skipper.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Agency<\/strong><\/p>\r\n",
