Opener Mohammad Naim struck a fine half-cetury before co-host Oman bowled out Bangladesh for 153 in their Group B match here on Tuesday.
Opting to bat in a must-win game, Bangladesh, which had lost its tournament opener to Scotland, struggled to 29 for the loss of two wickets in PowerPlay.
With their backs up against the wall, Naim, who hit 64 of 51 deliveries, and star all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan (42, 29b) shared an 81-run stand to give the side the much-needed momentum.
Everyone talks about the Airport Metro, but one look at the pillars and completion seems nowhere in sight.
