Tigers set Afghans 335-run target

Bangladesh set Afghanistan a modest target of 335 runs for victory in their 'do or die' Asia Cup clash on Sunday at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore.

Bangladesh have scored 334 runs after losing five wickets in 50 overs.

Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan won the toss and decided to bat first.

The Tigers responded to their five-wicket defeat to Sri Lanka in the opening game with three changes.

A defeat against Afghanistan however would show them the exit door.
