5.30 pm A solid beginning and a dream ending for Bangladesh at this point in the game. Anamul Haque's second ODI ton and laid the platform for the lower order to make merry. Mushifiqur Rahim was nothing short of sensational. He hoodwinked Saeed Ajmal so effectively that the ace offspinner leaked 52 runs in his last four overs. Bangladesh have razed 121 in the last 10 overs with some immensely calculated hitting and some choice slogs. Join us in half an hour for the chase. It should be a cracker. Pakistan will need to score their second-highest total in an ODI chase to pull this off
Shakib says he thought they played really well and were very positive. The opening partnership set us up. Obviously the last one month was tough and hopefully today is a new start and hopefully we do well in the bowling. I was practicing hard and I knew I had to perform when I come out. I think its a very good track, but a score of 320 will put them under pressure if we pick up early wickets
Nuwan: "Shakib remained at 44 in 16 balls while fastest fifty by sanath jayasuriya Stands at 17 balls. Did any body noticed that?"
Mazahir: "Odds are opposite today like Worst bowling + worst keeping, so I hope it will turn Pakistan batting chasing this target with comfort."
Ajmal's last four overs have gone for 52 runs!
