Bangladesh clinched the three-match ODI series as they beat Pakistan by 11 runs in their last match of the series at the Mirpur stadium in Dhaka on Sunday.

Taskin Ahmed picked four wickets while Mustafizur Rahman scalped three wickets and Nahid Rana clinched two as Pakistan were all out for 279, failing to chase a target of 291 in the ODI series decider.

Pakistan's Salman Ali Agha slammed an 89-ball century to establish important partnerships with the middle and lower-middle order.

Earlier, Bangladesh posted 290 for 5 after being put in to bat first. Their openers Saif Hassan and Tanzid Hasan Tamim put up a century partnership, with the latter slamming an excellent ton.
