NEW DELHI: Have you ever seen a moment in cricket where a batter hits a six yet still gets dismissed on the same ball? That's exactly what unfolded when Bangladesh tailender Taskin Ahmed faced the West Indies in the first T20I in Chattogram.

With 17 runs required off the final three balls, Bangladesh's chances were all but gone when Romario Shepherd delivered a full one. Taskin backed away and launched it high over mid-wicket for what looked like a consolation six - but his joy was short-lived.

In his attempt to create room, he moved too far back and clipped the stumps, dislodging the bails just as he struck the ball. The result? A six and a dismissal in the same moment - out hit wicket.

Bangladesh eventually fell short by 16 runs despite a spirited late cameo from Tanzim Hasan Sakib, who top-scored with 33. The hosts were bowled out for 149 in 19.4 overs, their chase derailed by a series of reckless shots from the top and middle order.

Jason Holder spearheaded the West Indies attack with 3 for 31, while Jayden Seales cleaned up the tail, finishing with 3 for 32.

"They batted later in the innings. It felt good as the dew came in during the latter part of the innings. We lost the match in the powerplay since we lost four wickets in the first six overs," Tanzim, who scored 27-ball 33, told reporters after the game.

"Still, we could have won if we had batted better in the middle overs, as the fields were open and there were plenty of opportunities for ones and twos," he said.
