Afghanistan defeated Bangladesh by a narrow margin of one run in the third and final T20 International en route to a 3-0 series whitewash in Dehradun yesterday. 

In the nail-biting encounter, electing to bat, Afghanistan scored 145 for six. They emerged winners when Afghanistan's trump card Rashid Khan single-handedly turned the game upside down by defending nine runs off the final over. 

Priot to yesterday's match, Afghanistan had already taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the series, having won the first two matches by emphatic margins.
