Bangladesh scored 180 runs losing 2 wickets in 20 overs against Oman in 12th Match of the World T20 at Dharamsala.
 
Tamim Iqbal's rapid fifty and one century lifted Bangladesh from a slow start towards a strong score against Oman.
 
He smashed a fabulous ton of 103* off 63 balls hitting 10 groundbreaking boundaries and four whirlwind maximums at Dharamsala.
 
Soumya Sarkar scored 12 off 22 balls in Bangladesh's sluggish start in the must-win match.
 
Oman won the toss and elected to bowl first against Tigers earlier.
 
Like the previous days, the rain at Dharamsala once again posed a threat to the knockout qualifier between Bangladesh and Oman from being held today.
 
Earlier on Friday the Bangladesh-Ireland match was abandoned due to continuous rain at Dharamsala stadium.
 
The Netherlands -Oman match was also washed out without a ball being bowled in the same day.
