It was a batting practice for Bangladesh and Afghanistan was not having their best bowlers in this match and you cannot call it as a revenge. If Rashid Khan was in the team things might be different. 
Are you serious? I believe with Rashid Khan the margin would be a little less but we have to acknowledge that Bangladesh performed really well.  I read the cricbuzz commentary yesterday and I will quote that here so you can understand what did I mean. The absence of Rashid Khan must not be an excuse here. It's the biggest win in terms of run in the 21st century (3rd of all time) and has not happened since 1934.

Don't forget that Rashid Khan is a bowling all rounder.

Afghanistan are a young team in Test cricket but we expect more from them as they have won three of their six Tests. Yes, they were without their best player - Rashid Khan - but that is no excuse to be blown away with the bat in both the innings. They just couldn't handle the heat of the Bangladesh pace trio and that is a lesson they will take away. That is all from this one-off Test. But these two sides will meet for five white-ball games soon. Until next time, goodbye and stay safe..
