- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.2 Bowled him this time! Down the track again but a bit too early. The wily Iftikhar sees him and pulls back the length, bowls it slow. Shanto goes for the inside-out cover drive on the up, misses and it hits off. Iftikhar pumps his fists. Pakistan are well back in this. 91/42.5 Gone! Afridi gets Litton early, Adelaide Oval roars. Shortish and angling away, Litton was again on the front foot. Looks to slash it hard but hits it straight to Masood at shortish backward point. He does not miss and Pakistan celebrate. One of the dangers nipped in the bud. 21/110.4 Reverse swept in the air, taken at point! It was full and slow around off, Soumya Sarkar changed his stance early and looked to hit it hard. It was going just over Shan Masood's head, so he timed his jump and took it. 73/210.5 Given LBW quite late, a bit of confusion with the running too. Bangladesh review. Slow, low full toss dipped and went past the flick. Shakib's front foot was planted and the back foot in the air as he tried to reach down and whip it. Ball's close to the bat but it's also close to the ground. Third umpire says 'no bat involved'. The impact's in line and ball's predicted to be hitting the stumps. Shakib's down over three metres. Still given! Shakib doesn't want to leave but has to! The bat was not hitting the ground, he was too far out. Folks are not sure in the Cricinfo bunker if that was the right call. Looked like a tiny tickle was there too. Eventually, it's two in two! 73/316.2 Yorker tails away and hits middle and off! Afridi's trademark celebration is out. Was a peach, seam-up, looked like a slower one to the naked eye but it was 134 clicks. Came in and tailed away late, pitched around middle and went away. Mosaddek tried to dab it with an open face and missed it. Al Muthu wonders if that was Ă la Wasim Akram to Allan Lamb - Is 1992 back? 107/516.5 Skied off the outer-half, taken by deep point! Came down and stayed leg side to open up cover. Looked to loft it, got height. Deep point ran diagonally to the right and took it. Two in the over for the Shah! 107/618.1 Chipped straight to mid-off! Was full jus outside off, Taskin didn't check the drive not try to launch it. Ended up skewing it, Babar had to take a step or two back to take it comfortably around chest-height. Shaheen's falconing! 109/719.5 Middles it this time but finds Wasim at deep-mid! Was full and on the legs, he whipped it. Hard lash and it went flat, got Wasim off-balance as he tried to grab it. Wiggled a bit but took it. 126/8Extras6 (b 2, lb 3, w 1)TOTAL127/8 (20 Overs, RR: 6.35)Did not bat: Ebadot HossainFall of wickets: 1-21 (Litton Das, 2.5 ov), 2-73 (Soumya Sarkar, 10.4 ov), 3-73 (Shakib Al Hasan, 10.5 ov), 4-91 (Najmul Hossain Shanto, 13.2 ov), 5-107 (Mosaddek Hossain, 16.2 ov), 6-107 (Nurul Hasan, 16.5 ov), 7-109 (Taskin Ahmed, 18.1 ov), 8-126 (Nasum Ahmed, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.2 Taken at point by Shanto! A hit-me ball, wide on a length. Rizwan leant across, reached out and tried to slash it, looked Rizwan wanted to go for the boundary but was early on the shot. The bottom hand came off and the ball ba 61/210.3 Top-edge off the sweep goes to the Fizz at short third! Looped up full on middle and off, Babar went on one knee and tried to whack it aerially. The ball deceived Babar and went off the splice. The Fizz ran in and took it well. 57/114.4 Direct hit at the non-striker's end, sent upstairs. They take an extra run. Replay is in, Nawaz is centimetres short! He has to go. It was a length ball outside off, Nawaz was walking down and pushed it on the move, Litton was quick at short cover, ran in and threw down the stumps from side-on. 92/316.5 Down the track, flashes, balloons to point who leaps up and takes it! But Haris' done his job. He tried to slash the very slow, length ball but got it off the edge. 121/417.6 Skied, up for a while, Shanto takes it! Fullish slower ball at the stumps, Iftikhar tries to launch it straight. It went straight up, Shanto backtracked, waited, turned and took it. 126/5Extras11 (lb 7, nb 2, w 2)TOTAL128/5 (18.1 Overs, RR: 7.04)Fall of wickets: 1-57 (Babar Azam, 10.3 ov), 2-61 (Mohammad Rizwan, 11.2 ov), 3-92 (Mohammad Nawaz, 14.4 ov), 4-121 (Mohammad Haris, 16.5 ov), 5-126 (Iftikhar Ahmed, 17.6 ov)
