In reply, the UAE never quite found momentum with the bat. Despite a few brief partnerships, Bangladesh’s bowlers kept the pressure on throughout the innings. A disciplined bowling effort and regular wickets ensured UAE fell short of the target.

With this win, Bangladesh take a 1–0 lead in the series. The teams will meet again in the second and final T20I as Bangladesh look to seal the series..
