In another nail-biting finish Bangladesh triumphed over Ireland securing a thrilling victory by a margin of 4 runs. The win ensured Bangladesh a clean sweep of the ODI series which ended 2-0 in their favour. Mustafizur Rahman emerged as the hero of the match claiming 4 wickets while conceding just 44 runs in his 10 overs. Despite a valiant effort from the Irish batsmen including a formidable partnership of 109 runs in the second wicket Ireland fell just 4 runs short of their target of 274 While L. Tucker scored 50 runs and M Adair 20 runs fought hard but Bangladesh disciplined bowling proved decisive as they maintained control throughout and clean sweep ODi Series by 2-0.

I would say it was a game must won by Ireland, as they played well to chase the target. The irony with Ireland is that they don't have the capability to finish the game. Ireland collapsed when 44 runs were required on 50 balls with 7 wickets in hands. This weakness of Ireland can only be overcome if they were given more and more chances to play against test teams. Mustafizur Rahman was the hero as he picked 3 wickets at very crucial part of the game.   
You are right that Mustafizur Rahman played a great role in ensuring victory for Bangladesh. On the other hand, Mahmud Hasan managed to take two great wickets in the last minute, all in all, Bangladesh's bowling department made it possible for Bangladesh to win this match.
Mustafizur Rahman really played a very important role to win the match tomorrow. Mustafizur Rahman was not present in the first and second ODIs, but came to the third ODI and showed a great surprise. Mustafizur Rahman bowled 10 overs and took 4 wickets with 44 runs including a maiden over. Mustafizur Rahman came towards the end and took 3 wickets in 3 consecutive overs. Mustafizur Rahman took the first wicket in Ireland's innings. All in all, Mustafizur Rahman won the Man of the Match title after defeating Ireland.
