- BATSMENRB4s6sSR7.2 a googly from Chahal, bamboozles Liton who was looking to work it on the leg side, the ball hits the top of the bat and ricochets in front of the batsman off Pant's chest. Liton sets off for a run, not aware where the ball is. Pant is and puts in the slide and hits the stumps direct at the striker's end. No need of replays this time. Liton finally runs out of luck 60/110.3 holes out! Length ball, angling in, and he looks to slog this over deep midwicket, but no real timing there, and the fielder comfortably gets under it near the boundary. Nifty knock comes to an end 83/212.6 Has Pant messed up again?
Yes he has!No, he hasn't! Googly on off and turning away as the batsman skips down the ground. He misses the slog, and Pant collects the ball. Drags his gloves back and removes the bails, but the TV umpire wants to check whether Pant's gloves were behind the stumps. The big screen says 'not out', much to the delight of the Bangladesh's fans, but then the umpire tells Soumya that it's an error from the TV umpire. The big screen lights up again, and this time Soumya is given "out". Mighty close once again from Pant, the gloves were barely behind the stumps 103/412.1 Chahal lets Mushfiqur know who is the boss! Full, on off, and he's down on one knee to sweep. Off the bat's toe end, and deep midwicket takes a comfortable catch. Chahal gives Mushfiqur a massive fist-pump on his way back to the dugout 97/318.3 easy, peasy! Back of a length, outside off, and he tries to ramp it over third man. Unfortunately for him, the pace is too little, and therefore the fielder dives forward to take a simple catch. Chahar displays a unique celebration too 142/616.3 slower ball, full on off, and the batsman is through his attempted loft too early. Sliced in the air, and Rohit - at cover - settles under it to take a swirling catch 128/5Extras6 (b 2, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL153/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.65)Fall of wickets: 1-60 (Litton Das, 7.2 ov), 2-83 (Mohammad Naim, 10.3 ov), 3-97 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 12.1 ov), 4-103 (Soumya Sarkar, 12.6 ov), 5-128 (Afif Hossain, 16.3 ov), 6-142 (Mahmudullah, 18.3 ov)
