BAN 1st Innings
All
117.1
W
Shaheen Afridi to Taskin Ahmed, out Caught by Saud Shakeel!! Finally the fun ends for Taskin Ahmed. Fine catch that by gully. Diving to his right and taking it with two hands. Full outside off, asking Taskin to have a drive, the thick outside-edge is flying and Saud with a good catch. Taskin Ahmed c Saud Shakeel b Shaheen Afridi 28(19) [4s-3 6s-1]
115.2
4
Shaheen Afridi to Taskin Ahmed, FOUR, all timing and the ball runs away square of the wicket on the off-side. Full outside off, Taskin Ahmed brings the bat down and uses the pace on the ball to direct it into the vacant spaces on the off-side
114.2
6
Abbas to Taskin Ahmed, SIX, slower-ball off-cutter and full just outside off, Taskin Ahmed gets forward and lofts so well, towards the sightscreen and it's a good hit. The 400 is up
112.1
4
Abbas to Taskin Ahmed, FOUR, full and wide outside off, width, Taskin Ahmed gets forward and lofts over extra-cover. Races away. That was bowled from round the wicket
110.5
W
Abbas to Ebadot Hossain, out Caught by Mohammad Rizwan!! Fifer for Mohammad Abbas. He fist-pumps in delight. It's just 121.4kph but a well-directed short delivery at Ebadot Hossain who is in all sorts of tangles. Bends his back, just holds the bat up and tries to avoid it, it takes the top half of the bat and it's a simple catch to Mohammad Rizwan. Even though Abbas isn't quick, the short ball was well-directed. Ebadot Hossain c Mohammad Rizwan b Abbas 0(10)
109.4
4
Shaheen Afridi to Taskin Ahmed, FOUR, full outside off, Taskin Ahmed gets forward to drive and it's a loose shot. The thick outside-edge though flies into the gap, wide of the staggered 2nd slip and the gully. Right into the gap. Went at a catching height too
109.3
W
Shaheen Afridi to Mushfiqur, out Bowled!! Lovely delivery and the off-stump has gone for a walk. Late tail back in, full and creates a gap between bat and pad, Mushfiqur Rahim gets forward to drive on the rise, leaves that gap and the off-stump goes for a tumble. Was that reverse? Or conventional swing? Pakistan with a breakthrough right after lunch. No 100 for Mushfiqur who walks off. Mushfiqur b Shaheen Afridi 71(179) [4s-8]
106.5
W
Abbas to Taijul Islam, out Caught by Mohammad Rizwan!! Mohammad Abbas picks up a 4-fer! He has been the pick of the bowlers for Pakistan! He slips in a sharp bouncer on off from round the wicket, Taijul is cramped for space but still tries to hook it across but only manages to get a top-edge behind. An easy take for Rizwan. Abbas is pumped up. Taijul Islam c Mohammad Rizwan b Abbas 17(23) [4s-2]
105.2
4
Hasan Ali to Taijul Islam, FOUR that's smartly done! On a length outside off, Taijul opens his bat-face and carves it nicely in the gap between third slip and short third to find the fence again
105.1
4
Hasan Ali to Taijul Islam, FOUR, shot! Back of a length on off, Taijul moves inside the line and swipes it through mid-wicket for a rocketing boundary
101.3
4
Shaheen Afridi to Mushfiqur, FOUR, beautiful stroke! Slightly overpitched and some room on offer, Mushfiqur leans towards it, opens his bat-face and drives it elegantly through point. The fielder in the deep moves across to his right but has no chance to stop it
100.4
W
Abbas to Mehidy Hasan Miraz, out Caught by Imam!! That's a soft dismissal! Short of a length on the sixth stump channel, holding its line, Mehidy punches it uppishly and doesn't bother to keep it down. Imam at backward point crouches a bit and reverse cups it nicely near his chin. That was a sharp take. Mehidy got a bit carried away there, perhaps due to the six which he hit on the previous delivery and that has cost him his wicket. Mehidy Hasan Miraz c Imam b Abbas 10(12) [4s-1 6s-1]
100.3
6
Abbas to Mehidy Hasan Miraz, SIX, shot! A short delivery outside off, sits up nicely for Mehidy. He swivels across, gets on top of the bounce and pulls it with aplomb over long leg for a maximum. 350 up for Bangladesh

96.4
W
Abbas to Litton Das, out Caught by (sub)Amad Butt!! Litton Das has gifted his wicket away! He got a start but has failed to convert it into something substantial! A shortish delivery well outside off, there's some extra bounce as well. Litton Das reaches out and tries to flat-bat it downtown but it gets a bit big on him and hence, he ends up mistiming it to mid-on. The substitute fielder, Amad Butt, moves to his left and reverse cups it with ease. With that, it's Drinks as well. Litton Das c (sub)Amad Butt b Abbas 33(67) [4s-5]
95.4
4
Shaheen Afridi to Mushfiqur, FOUR, lovely shot! Fractionally overpitched on off, Mushfiqur Rahim leans into it and caresses it past the right side of mid-off to find the fence. Showed the full face of the bat and played a lovely straight drive
94.5
Abbas to Litton Das, no run, Littton has been caught in the slip cordon but he is waiting. He feels that might not have carried to the fielder. The umpires take it upstairs to check whether it carried or was it a bump ball! Was a shortish delivery and there was room on offer, Litton Das reached out and went for a cut square of the wicket on the off-side but got a thick under-edge towards third slip. The fielder crouched as he took it with his right hand. The replays roll in. Well, the third umpire has a look from a few angles and they are conclusive enough to show that a part of the ball was grassed when the fielder took it. Litton almost gifted his wicket there. He would have had his heart in his mouth there
90.5
4
Shaheen Afridi to Litton Das, FOUR, not that convincing but good enough! A length delivery moving across Litton Das. He opens his bat-face and steers it past the left side of gully.

87.4
Hasan Ali to Litton Das, no run, a huge shout for lbw turned down! Shan Masood decides to challenge the decision after a chat with his mates. Was a back of a length that shaped in from middle, Litton Das tried to work it across but seemed to have missed to get struck on the pads. UltraEdge rolls in and shows that's a clear spike when the ball is next to the bat
86.3
4
Shaheen Afridi to Litton Das, FOUR, three boundaries in a row! A back of a length delivery slanting across Litton Das and it shoots off a bit. Litton Das actually does well to handle the bounce as he opens his bat-face and steers it past the left side of gully

Noman Ali to Mominul, out Lbw!! Mominul Haque has been trapped in front but after a consultation with his partner, he opts for the review! Was on a back of a length on middle and leg, kept a bit low and straightened down the line a bit, Mominul was trapped in the crease as he tried to work it across but played all around it and got beaten on the inside edge to get struck on the pads. UltraEdge shows a flat line. Over to ball-tracking and it reveals three reds - it would have crashed into the leg-stump. Mominul misses out on a century but it has been a very good knock from him nonetheless. Mominul lbw b Noman Ali 91(200) [4s-10]
72.1
4
Abbas to Mushfiqur, FOUR, nicely done! Shortish and some room on offer, Mushfiqur Rahim cashes in as he gets on top of the bounce and cuts it expertly past the left side of backward point to find the fence

Noman Ali to Mushfiqur, FOUR, shot! Fractionally overpitched around off, Mushfiqur Rahim stays leg-side of it and creams the drive through extra cover for a boundary
55.3
4
Noman Ali to Mushfiqur, byes, FOUR, Pakistan can't afford to give away such easy runs, especially with a new batter on the crease! This is poor cricket! A short delivery well down leg, Mohammad Rizwan can't stop it and the ball rolls to the fence behind
54.4
Abbas to Mominul, no run, a chirpy appeal for lbw turned down! Masood makes a late call to challenge the decision! Was on a back of a length around off and shaped in nicely, Mominul rose on his toes to work it across but got beaten on the inside edge to get struck around the box area. Time for the replays. UltraEdge shows a flat line. Over to ball-tracking and it's going over the stumps. Height was always the issue there. Pakistan lose a review
54.2
4
Abbas to Mominul, byes, FOUR, this is wayward bowling! On a length and down leg, Mominul Haque looks to hit it across but misses. The keeper is up to the stumps so it's a very difficult take and he isn't able to stop it

W
Abbas to Najmul Hossain Shanto, out Lbw!! Pakistan review for a lbw! The impact might be outside off! Was a length delivery that nipped in nicely from outside off, Shanto leaned ahead a bit to keep it out on the on-side but played all around it. Got beaten on the inside edge to get struck on the pads. Time for the replays. UltraEdge shows a flat line. Over to ball-tracking and it returns three reds - it would have crashed into the off-stump. The onfield call has to be reversed. That was a good piece of bowling from Abbas to outsmart the Bangladeshi skipper. He walks back disappointed but it has been a superb knock from him. He gets a good round of applause from the crowd and his mates as he makes his way back. Najmul Hossain Shanto lbw b Abbas 101(130) [4s-12 6s-2]
