- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.4 leading edge taken by the bowler running to his right! Length ball on off, and he tried to paddle it square, but the ball flew into the night sky off the bat's face 80/39.3 top edged, and a simple catch! After two misses strokes, he bends down into a sweep but is undone by some turn and bounce. The ball takes the top edge, looping tamely to Mustafizur at short fine leg, and the opening stand is broken 75/19.5 there goes another one! He lasted one ball last night, and two tonight. Asghar sets his sights on a big six down the ground, he gets height but not the required distance, long on getting underneath it and holding on. Two in the over! 75/215.4 what a delivery! Full, fast and on off stump. Batsman misses the flick, and that's pegged his stumps back 109/612.4 given this time! Nabi has a chat with his partner before walking off. Full, just outside off and sliding in. Nabi misses the flick, and it hits his front leg. Impact on middle, and this would've crashed into leg stump 88/413.2 is that a run-out? Mahmudullah with some nifty work. The left-handed nudged this to point for a quick single but the fielder swooped in, and threw the ball under-hand while diving forward. Keeper collects, whips the bails off, and the batsman is short by a few inches 96/516.5 back of a length on off, and he swings at this ball which is over his head. Connects well, but straight down the throat of Fizz at deep backward square leg 114/7Extras6 (lb 1, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL138/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.9)Fall of wickets: 1-75 (Hazratullah Zazai, 9.3 ov), 2-75 (Asghar Afghan, 9.5 ov), 3-80 (Rahmanullah Gurbaz, 10.4 ov), 4-88 (Mohammad Nabi, 12.4 ov), 5-96 (Gulbadin Naib, 13.2 ov), 6-109 (Najibullah Zadran, 15.4 ov), 7-114 (Karim Janat, 16.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.2 sliced, skied and caught! Liton backs away, looking to open up the off side, but slices underneath the ball. There's no power in the stroke, and though it goes fairly high, it goes no further than Asghar, in position at mid off, who holds a simple chance 9/13.2 slower ball does the trick! Naveen ul Haq has his first wicket in T20I cricket. Najmul was looking to get after him again, but swiped much too early at the ball, chipping it softly into the air on the leg side. It loops tamely towards midwicket, who holds onto a dolly. Big change of pace there, down to 101km/h 12/210.4 drags a pull into the hands of deep midwicket this time. Another length ball, outside off, and he can't resist the shot. Spliced, and taken in the deep. The batsman is so disappointed... 70/313.4 he raises his finger! Mahmudullah lost his balance while trying to pull. This was a length ball on off and the googly turned into him. Hits him on the knee-roll and Mahmdullah walks back after a brief discussion with his partner 93/414.2 edged! Length ball, holding it's line outside off, and he tries to guide it fine to third man. But feather-edge instead goes straight into the hands of the wicketkeeper 96/515.5 leg stump gone! Full on leg stump, and Afif walks across the stumps to try and play a slog sweep, but the ball doesn't turn into him. Instead goes straight on, and pegs his pole back 104/6Extras6 (b 1, lb 1, w 4)TOTAL139/6 (19 Overs, RR: 7.31)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Litton Das, 2.2 ov), 2-12 (Najmul Hossain Shanto, 3.2 ov), 3-70 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 10.4 ov), 4-93 (Mahmudullah, 13.4 ov), 5-96 (Sabbir Rahman, 14.2 ov), 6-104 (Afif Hossain, 15.5 ov)
