    4.5 Goes short on the leg side, he swivels and miscues the skier, didn't look in control while hitting and is caught at deep square, was eyeing backward square and ended up giving a regulation catch to Jaker. Absolutely livid with himself and thwacks the bat on the turf 18/1
    43.2 down the ground and goes aerial towards deep midwicket. Rishad moved to his left and timed his jump to pluck it, sending Zadran back on 95 188/8
    8.4 Another one gone! Tossed up on middle and lured him with flight, he takes two steps forward and tonks it downtown, Tanzim hangs onto it brilliantly at long-on, making it look so easy. Afghanistan lose their second 38/2
    44.5 a googly to welcome him back. Beats the inside edge and hits him in the abdomen. Rahmat is down on the ground. Miraz helps him get him back on his feet. The physio is out as well 190/9
    17.5 through the gate! Full outside off. Hashmat looks to push it through extra cover but gets an inside edge and that ball deflects onto the stumps 78/3
    18.4 a typical legspinner's wicket. Bowls it on a good length around off and gets it to turn. Omarzai lunges forward to defend but the ball turns away to kiss the outside edge and settle into the hands of the slip fielder who had to dive low to his right 79/4
    29.1 and he strikes right away. An excellent catch by Miraz at covers, diving full length to his left. It was a length ball around off. Nabi was early into the shot and ended up pushing it uppishly 118/5
    37.1 mix-up! Kharote is already walking back as he is short of the crease at the non-striker's end. Tanzim with a clean pick-up pings a direct throw and they mostly get the job done 154/6
    37.6 Tossed up fuller on off, off the toe-end to cover-point, very close to the surface and the third umpire is zooming in to check if the ball was in contact with the pitch, but it isn't the case and Rashid Khan has to take the long walk back to the pavillion. Still many overs left 157/7
    44.4 a length ball. Looks to go big again but fails to clear long-on who takes it in front of the sightscreen 190/9

    0.5 short ball. Just outside off. Tanzid goes for the pull but fails to keep it down and Bashir takes a simple catch at fine leg 0/1
    6.5 short of length outside off. Saif goes airborne and uppercuts it towards deep third. Bashir didn't spot it at first, it seems, but backpedalled a bit to pouch it eventually 40/3
    4.5 full around off. Throws his bat at it and gets an inside edge towards square leg. They are coming back for the second and it's going to be close. A good throw to the keeper who breaks the stumps. The umpires are checking upstairs and replays show Shanto was well short despite the dive 25/2
    16.2 Hridoy departs after a good start and wanted to accelerate but took the best bowler on, wanted to hoik it across the line, shaped for a slog sweep and the ball didn't turn, just straight through middle and rattles the stumps. Afghanistan keep pegging them back and Bangladesh's progress beset by the frequent loss of wickets. Rashid does it again, always finds ways to break partnerships. Now the pressure will creep up on Bangladesh 79/5
    10.2 an appeal for lbw and given. Mehidy says it looked a bit high and goes for the review. He has too. Was a length ball around off that came in sharply with the angle and kept low to hit the batter on the back thigh. Wasn't too high and would have hit the top of leg stump. Bangladesh in deep, deep trouble as Omarzai picks up his third 50/4
    23.6 Shimmies leg-side and plays a nothing shot in the end, pressure creeping up and doing funny things! He just backs away and spoons it straight to short cover and the fielder takes a gem of a catch, diving forward and making no mistake. Rashid with a safe catch! He was batting so well but it is the situation which might have resulted in this soft dismissal, trying to break the chains and ending up playing unimaginative shot 99/8
    22.3 looped up fuller and doesn't spin much, he goes down on one knee and tries to go for a full-blooded loaded sweep across the line, kept very low and hits the timber! Rashid Khan turning it on big time and picks another vital scalp, follows it with his lovely arms aloft celebration. Afghanistan making regular incisions and Bangladesh staring into the abyss, not able to deal with the Rashid threat, not giving him much respect 99/6
    22.4 Two slips in place, tossed up on middle, hurries off the surface and doesn't spin much! Huge convincing appeal for an lbw and the umpire raises the dreaded finger, went on with the arm and batter was expecting it to turn away but it didn't, Sakib has to go! Wheels are coming really fast and this is poor from Bangladesh, they are not playing the situation but mood-lifting for Afghanistan fans as Rashid is on a hattrick! 99/7
    28.3 That might be the end. He skips down the track to club it over midwicket and gets beaten by pace, spin and accuracy of the spin wizard Rashid Khan, doesn't connect and Gurbaz takes off the zingers in a jiffy! Afghanistan have roared back and looked phenomenal in this format, winning the series comprehensively. Rashid was the star of the show, picking his sixth fifer and changing the complexion of the game quickly 109/10
    26.4 around the wicket, spinning it in from outside off and he tries to work it leg side, strong appeal for an lbw and given but he has sent it upstairs for a second look, wanted to tonk it to midwicket, was early through the shot. Let's take a look. Ball tracker loading up. Nothing on the ultra-edge. He didn't look very confident while sending it upstairs. Landed very short, pitching outside off, impact is in line and hitting middle stop quite high so the on-field decision stands. Rashid is a genuine wicket-taker, has a knack of pickings wickets 100/9
