After winning the first match against the United Arab Emirates, the confidence was quite high. So, to prepare, Bangladesh added another match against a comparatively weak country. If the result came as a boomerang. In the second match of the series, Liton Das' team fought until the end. But in the third match, Bangladesh could not be seen in the fight at any level.

Bangladesh lost the match by a huge margin of 7 wickets. This is their 11th loss against an ICC partner country. Their 10th loss in official matches. Their 3rd loss in series. Bangladesh has lost to an ICC partner country twice in the last year.

Coincidentally, Bangladesh lost the series against the United States on May 21 in 2024. In 2025, they lost the series to the United Arab Emirates on May 21. And that has brought recognition to two world records in tiger cricket.

Bangladesh is the first country among the nine nations playing Test cricket at the top level, or Test Championship, to lose 10 T20Is to associate members. However, no other country has a record of losing 5. The West Indies have lost the second most, 4 T20Is.

However, this is where Bangladesh's T20 shame story ends. Bangladesh is the only Test-playing nation other than Zimbabwe to have lost multiple T20 series to partner nations. Of the Test Championship-playing nations, the Tigers are the only ones to have lost to partner nations.

It is worth noting that Bangladesh lost a one-match series to Scotland while touring Ireland and the Netherlands in 2012. After that, they had to face defeats to the United States and the United Arab Emirates within a span of one year.
