- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.5 backs away and tries to force a shot.. and he has found extra cover. This one's pitch outside off and fired just a little wide.. he backs away to give himself some more room and thumps it straight into the hands of the fielder 7/115.6 and Russell has the last laugh.. An extremely full ball outside off, Tamim chips it straight over off the toe end to long-on where Keemo Paul holds on. To knock 138/43.3 finds point with his reverse sweep. Had to fetch it from well outside off and as a result can't get his weight behind the shot and can't quite muster up enough power. Point settles under it 24/27.4 slows it up outside off, Soumya chips it over off the toe end.. gets miles of elevation but not enough distance. Rovman Powell moves to his left at long-off and settles under it 48/319.3 full toss, pushed across, chips it straight over with the full face but not entirely in control as he sends a catch down long-off's throat. Another top innings.. he has set up a potentially match-winning total 167/5Extras4 (lb 2, w 2)TOTAL171/5 (20 Overs, RR: 8.55)Fall of wickets: 1-7 (Litton Das, 1.5 ov), 2-24 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 3.3 ov), 3-48 (Soumya Sarkar, 7.4 ov), 4-138 (Tamim Iqbal, 15.6 ov), 5-167 (Shakib Al Hasan, 19.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR14.2 slices this to point. Looked for a wild heave across the line, the bowler cleverly held it back so Fletcher didn't get underneath the length, top edge and Shakib calls loud and clear before taking the dolly. 116/51.2 how close is this? Very, very close and he's gone. Lewis has reviewed immediately, but I suspect that's just being very optimistic. This is much fuller, cuts back in to beat the inside edge and hit him just above the flap of the pad. But he was rooted to the crease, so the ball didn't have much distance to travel from there on. The on-field call was out, so all it had to do was just clip, and ball tracking confirms it would've done more than just that, on middle and leg. So Lewis has to walk back. 5/13.4 he's feathered an edge, and the party is over. Extra pace and bounce but the key was the angle - from around the stumps. Russell is cramped for room, so is denied the free swing as he lines himself up to muscle over deep midwicket, got a faint top edge and Mushfiqur did the rest. Big, big wicket. 33/24.4 whipped over the ingfield, but this is a magnificent catch at deep midwicket. Liton ran in hard and dived full length forward even though there was this risk of the ball smashing into his face. That's what made the catch all the more spectacular. In the end, he took it with his face well over the ball, with the hands completely underneath the ball. West Indies are in trouble now. 48/37.1 appeal for lbw as this slides back in to beat the inside edge. He was a long way across, so this is rightly been referred by Bangladesh after the umpire turned down the appeal. Let's see. Yes, yes, ball tracking confirms this would've crashed into leg stump. Once again because the batsman was rooted to the crease and the ball didn't have too far back to travel. Ramdin is also not all that tall. Rubel has done the trick and Bangladesh are chipping away. 58/418.3 thick edge and superbly taken by Mushfiqur. This was another short bouncer angled across, the heave is ungainly this time because it got big on him. Still got a thick edge but Mushfiq leapt high and plucked that out. Boy, does that put Bangladesh ahead now? Surely. 146/716.2 this is simply brilliant at wide long-on. Liton Das, running across from deep midwicket, had to be aware of the long-on fielder running across fill tilt, so he not only had to move away from his line to prevent a collision but also at the same time have his eyes on the ball. It can be distracting at the best of times but he somehow managed to keep his composure and pull off a stunner. Coming to the ball, it was nicely tossed up, dipped on Brathwaite but he went through with the shot. And because he didn't get to the pitch of it, there wasn't the kind of power he would've liked. 131/619.3 he has hit this really, really high into the night sky. The man at deep midwicket would have had his heart in his mouth because this was in the air for a long, long time. Ariful who dropped a catch earlier in the night was so calm and composed this time and took the ball with his palms facing the sky, Australian style. Surely this turns it in Bangladesh's favour? 158/819.5 swings, misses and he's bowled. That's the end of that, how the mood turns. This was fired in full, he went for the glory hit, he had to, but couldn't connect.
