Taskin Ahmed to Noor Ahmad, SIX

These are still crucial runs. Because NRR could still come into play. Rishad leaps but doesn't time it properly, just about gets his tall hands on the ball, can't prevent it from going over. Litton Das seems to say something. He doesn't look happy. A slower-ball and on a back of a length outside off, Noor Ahmad gets forward and flat-bats, just has enough

Taskin Ahmed to Noor Ahmad, no run

that's that. A slower-ball and it dips as a low full-toss, Noor Ahmad steps out and drives to long-off, Noor doesn't take the single

Taskin Ahmed to Noor Ahmad, SIX

Noor Ahmad with a six and mathematically his side are still in it. A half-volley on off, it's in the slot, Noor gets forward and lofts, just clears Rishad at long-on, game still on

Mustafizur to Rashid Khan, FOUR

Nasum Ahmed to Rashid Khan, 1 run

more good fielding by Bangladesh. This time it's Jaker Ali at backward point, moves and slides to his left quickly to keep it to one. Flat length delivery and coming in at Rashid Khan who makes room and punches it from leg-stump, was splitting backward point and short third man and running away for four, till Jaker came into the picture. Importantly for Afghanistan Rashid is on strike next over

Janat is halfway down the track, still Nurul had work to do, the throw is flat and on the bounce, on top of the stumps to Litton Das and that's an easy run-out after that. Janat is not happy at all with Rashid Khan who sent him back once he saw Nurul make the stop. That's a brilliant effort from Nurul which well could win the game for his side.

Mustafizur to Karim Janat, 1 run

another slower-ball off-cutter on a length, on off, Karim Janat taps and runs wide of backward point. 14 off the over

what hands and what timing. That sped off the bat. A slower-ball off-cutter outside off, width and Rashid Khan cuts late, Rishad runs and dives to his right but the ball wins. He is a good fielder but such was the timing on that one, Rashid loved that one too as he gestures it was a slower-ball, has a big smile on his face too

back of a length outside off, skiddy delivery, Rashid Khan leans back to cut and misses

Taskin Ahmed to Azmatullah, out Caught by Saif Hassan!! Good catch at backward point. Trott watching on puts his head back in disappointment. The slower-ball on a length outside off

seam-up and nicely released from the hand, lands outside off and Azmatullah gets forward to loft, right off the toe-end and it goes straight up, pressure catch and Saif Hassan judges it well as he tumbles to ground. Is that the final nail in the coffin for Afghanistan?

Taskin Ahmed to Azmatullah, SIX

holy cow! What a shot. Even Taskin Ahmed has a wry smile on his face. This is 99m. Azmatullah makes room and this is a short delivery on the stumps, he pulls and what sweet connection, on to the grass banks at deep square-leg. He really is turning it on now

Mustafizur to Nabi, out Bowled!! No room and the thick inside-edge goes back on. It's a cross-seamer on a good length on off
