That's all from us folks! Hope you enjoyed the coverage and Bangladesh's win. Until next time then ...

Here's what the players had to say:

Tamim, Man of the Match: It wasn't the easiest wicket. On this kind of wicket, you need to be patient and cash in on the bad balls. Me and Shakib were going well, but my wicket was the key. I should have batted through and helped get that 240-250. It was tough at the start and they were also bowling well. To achieve something like that is always a proud moment (highest run-scorer at a single venue - Shere Bangla National Stadium). I will not leave him (Shakib) alone (chuckles) (referring to the MoM competition).

Mortaza: With the way the wicket played, we thought we could get more. The way Tamim and Shakib it was good. But we lost too many wickets in the middle. He (Mustafizur) has been practising his batting. The confidence was there in the dressing room at the halfway mark. It is very important to keep the momentum and hopefully we can keep going.

Cremer: It was a difficult wicket. All the wickets look similar but play differently. The toss was not crucial. We went about nicely with the ball and in the field. We should have done better with the bat. It was nice to get him (Tamim) out like that. When Shakib and Tamim were going, they could have got more, but we pulled it back. I thought the wicket didn't get us out, we gave Bangladesh a few soft wickets. We can't blame the wicket. It is tough when you lose wickets in the first 10 overs. We enjoyed the tour. Hopefully we will make the final and for that Bangladesh will have to play really well against Sri Lanka.

ALL OVER: Bangladesh brushed aside the Zimbabwe challenge to pick up their third bonus point win as they won by 91 runs in the fifth match. Set 217, Zimbabwe folded for 125 in 36.3 overs. Zimbabwe, though, aren't yet out of contention. If Sri Lanka lose to Bangladesh in the last game before the final, there's still a chance of Zimbabwe reaching the all-important clash.

Zimbabwe were knocked out of the contest when they were reduced to 20 for 3 in the seventh over. The early wickets meant the chase never really got going and they were forced to play catchup throughout the chase. With the dying pitching offering no pace at all for stroke-making, it was always going to be a tough task for the Zimbabwe batsmen even after they kept Bangladesh to 216 for 9.

Bangladesh started with Shakib al Hasan but it was Mashrafe Mortaza who got the first breakthrough. However, the left-arm spinner came back with twin blows and dismissed Solomon Mire and Brendan Taylor. While Mire was beaten by the lack of bounce on the track and was bowled while Taylor was trapped plumb in front.

Sikandar Raza and Peter Moor rebuild for a while and scored 34 for the fifth wicket. At the end of the 20th over, Zimbabwe were 58 for 4 and with the asking rate climbing up, there weren't too many options left for them. Sunzamul Islam dismissed Moor and Malcolm Waller on consecutive deliveries to leave Zimbabwe gasping at 68 for 6.

Graeme Cremer made 23 while Sikandar Raza fought hard with 39 but the hosts proved too good yet again for Zimbabwe.

EIGHT DOWN: Mustafizur gets Raza and Zim
