United Arab Emirates struck an early blow as Nazimuddin was caught in the slips off Zahid Shah


Mohammad Ashraful and Tamim Iqbal set a steady platform with a 95-run stand for the second wicket


Tamim was run out on 40 while attempting a risky second

He got good support from Raqibul Hasan, who has come up with a few impressive knocks since his debut earlier this year


Ashraful and Hasan put together a 141 runs, a record third-wicket stand for Bangladesh


Mohammad Ashraful worked his way to his second ODI century
