Abu Dhabi, SEPTEMBER 20 

Spinner Rashid Khan celebrated his 20th birthday in style by producing a stunning all-round display as Afghanistan beat Bangladesh by 136 runs in their Asia Cup match. 

Rashid smashed an unbeaten 57 off just 32 balls in a counter-attacking batting display to take Afghanistan to 255/7.

Both the sides have already made it to the Super-4 stage from Group B.
