    1.4 Up in the air, and gone! Nabi pulls his length back a bit and Munim charges down the track and smacks it straight into the hands of the fielder at mid off! 7/1
    8.1 A direct hit! Oh, what has Naim done there? Naim mis-times the sweep and there's a feeble appeal for lbw and the batters look to take a quick run. But Naim doesn't make it back on time as there's a direct hit by the keeper to the other end. Gone! 38/3
    4.1 a loose delivery and Litton holes out! Length ball and he latches on to it 22/2
    9.3 A bit shorter again and finds Shakib's top-edge! The ball goes up and is caught safely by the wicketkeeper 45/4
    16.1 starts with a slower ball, and foxes Mushfiq first ball! That was an offcutter bowled around the hitting arc about off stump, as Mushfiq made room early to try and go over cover. But he was beaten by the change of pace, and sent that sailing for the cover fielder to move to his left and pouch the ball. Perhaps Bangladesh's last hope for a respectable score is gone, but who knows? 99/6
    14.4 Rashid is celebrating without looking back at the umpire, who does eventually raise his finger! Good length ball on middle which goes on straight after pitching, without turning either way. Mahmudullah is down on his back knee early to try and sweep, but misses. The ball strikes his front pad right in front of the stumps, and he is gone 88/5
    17.4 nabbed by short fine leg! But there is a wait to check for a possible above-waist no-ball. It is a fair delivery in terms of the front foot though, and it is given out on checking replays. Afif is across off early, and it is a full toss which is dipping, and which hits the higher side of Afif's bat as he tries to scoop. The ball may not have been very well timed because it was a high-ish full toss, and so went to the left of the man at short fine leg 104/8
    16.3 castles him right away! Nails a yorker on off stump, and that was too quick for Mahedi. Nearly bowled at 140kph and with an upright seam, the ball was hinting to shape away too. Mahedi tries to jam his bat down, but is beaten by the pace of the ball as much as the perfect length. Two wickets in three balls, and Farooqi dragging it back toward Afghanistan 100/7

    18.1 another yorker, and another wicket! This is again sent down at 138kph, and bowled like a cutter. And despite that, he is able to generate a lot of pace. Lands that bang on middle stump, as Shoriful is trying to make room, and eventually, it is too late for his bat to have a jam at that. Another really quick yorker from Farooqi, and Bangladesh staring at getting bowled out early 105/9
