- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.3 skews it to mid-off. Tossed up at off stump, looks to go across the line - tries to slog it to wide long-on like he did yesterday. Doesn't get to the pitch and allows the turn to take the outside half of the bat. Buttler pedals backwards at mid-off and takes an easy one 23/14.3 faint nick and he's gone. Overpitched ball outside off, gets the front foot into the leg side and looks to club this through the covers. He's nowhere near it and can only manage to get an outside edge. No movement whatsoever, that wicket was given, not taken 29/29 full outside off, looks to flick against the turn and gets a harmless leading edge that goes straight to Jos Buttler at extra cover. A weak attempt at a shot and Rashid's pace off the pitch does him 64/39.5 plays it on. A very tentative shot. Bravo goes over the wicket. It's a length ball at off stump. Franklin appears paralysed as he plays this. No feet, barely any bat. Looked like he was trying to feebly poke it into the off side. Loses his stumps instead 68/414 full-length dive at backward point and Samuels comes up with the little white thing in his right hand! What a catch! He's brought into the game by a reverse sweep, which is fairly well timed considering Mehidy has been inside edging his way through the innings. Samuels begins running to his right, then puts in the dive and is almost parallel with the ground when he catches it 82/610.1 there's an appeal for lbw, but one person doesn't care to join in. Funnily enough, the odd man out is the wicketkeeper. But he has a reason. He needs to grab the ball and run the batsman out. The chaos begins with a tossed up delivery, to which Waller premeditates a sweep shot. Doesn't make any contact, but seems to believe the ball has gone past Liton Das after hitting his pads. It hasn't. 69/515.1 bowls him! It's just too good for a tailender. The tossed up ball, getting ample drift away from the bat to tempt Nihaduzzaman into reaching for the ball and drag it through midwicket. The ball pitches, turns, dances through the bat and pad gap that is about a mile and a half wide and breaks the stumps 91/7Extras6 (lb 1, w 5)TOTAL115/7 (20 Overs, RR: 5.75)Did not bat: KOK WilliamsFall of wickets: 1-23 (Mominul Haque, 3.3 ov), 2-29 (Rony Talukdar, 4.3 ov), 2-48* (Lendl Simmons, retired not out ), 3-64 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 8.6 ov), 4-68 (James Franklin, 9.5 ov), 5-69 (Malcolm Waller, 10.1 ov), 6-82 (Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 13.6 ov), 7-91 (Nihaduzzaman, 15.1 ov)
