8.2
Taskin Ahmed to Steven Smith, no run, loud appeal for LBW and turned down. Good decision from Nitin Menon. Steve Smith seemed to tell the Bangladeshis to go upstairs, almost taunting them. Nitin Menon now gets involved and tells Smith that he can't do that. Shanto with a calming chat to Taskin Ahmed who was very keen on the review. Shanto tells him impact is outside off and it is. It's a beautiful leg-cutter, Smith with his shuffle will generally most times get outside the line. He does so here, full and on the fourth-stump line, Smith gets forward to push and the away movement raps the batter on the back thigh. Also height an issue. Smith is seen telling "halfway down the wicket"

Taskin Ahmed to Travis Head, no run, loud shout for caught behind and there was a sound but Nitin Menon shakes his head. Full outside off, Travis Head gets forward to push and hits the flap of his front pad. That was the sound, past the outside-edge.

Taskin Ahmed to Matt Renshaw, out Caught by Tanzid Hasan Tamim!! Renshaw hasn't lasted long in his first innings back after three and a half years. Change of angle works for Taskin. It's angled in around off stump from round the wicket, tempts him to flick across the line but the ball then nips away slightly, taking a thick leading edge to third slip. It flies to Tanzid who takes it with the reverse-cup above the head. Matt Renshaw c Tanzid Hasan Tamim b Taskin Ahmed 8(10) [4s-1]

0.3
Taskin Ahmed to Travis Head, no ball, appeal for caught-behind as the ball sneaks through to the keeper after beating Head on the pull shot! Not a great choice of shot there.
