Parvez Hossain Emon creates T20 history for Bangladesh; joins Virat Kohli, Samson and Maxwell in elite lists

Parvez Hossain Emon became only the second batter to smash a T20I century for Bangladesh and broke several records as the visitors took a 1-0 lead in the two-match series against the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Emon's 53-ball century was studded with nine sixes and five fours as he single-handedly helped Bangladesh to get to a strong score of 191, which was eventually enough with the UAE falling 27 runs short of the target.
