Bangladesh was merely the latest team to fall under the domination of those broad shoulders and thick-as-tree-trunks forearms. Hitting an unbeaten 67 off 70 balls - including the only six of the match, a fierce hook off Khaled Mahmud. Perhaps he was trying to wrest the Man of the Match award from Jason Gillespie; if so, he failed, but his batting was anything but a failure.
