A day earlier, India’s Vaibhav Suryavanshi lit up the Asia Cup Rising Stars tournament with a 32-ball century. Just 24 hours later, Bangladesh’s Habibur Rahman Sohan produced history of his own.

Chasing Hong Kong’s 168 in Doha, Sohan reached three figures off just 35 balls, blasting 10 sixes and 8 fours. Bangladesh ‘A’ cruised to victory by 8 wickets.
