6.4 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Rashid Khan gets his man! A much-needed wicket for Afghanistan, and the 63-run opening stand has been broken now. This is another wrong'un, full and on off, keeps a bit low. Saif Hassan goes down to sweep it away but plays all over it and gets nowhere near the ball. It goes under the bat and rattles the off pole. Rashid Khan gives a cold, steely stare at the batter. Saif walks back for a fine 30 off 28, giving the start Bangladesh needed in this big game. 63/1

12.5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! CAUGHT! Noor Ahmad fishes out another big wicket for Afghanistan and gets his second wicket. Gives the ball more air on this occasion. Lands it full and in front of the sticks. Tanzid Hasan is lured into the flight and tries to spank it downtown. Moves to the leg side, creates room but mistimes it off the toe end towards long off. The ball does not have the distance nor the elevation. A straightforward catch for Ibrahim Zadran at long off. Brave bowling from Noor, though. Tanzid Hasan departs for a brilliant 52 off just 31 and from 87/1, Bangladesh have slipped a bit to 104/3. 104/3

10.1 OUT! LBW! Noor Ahmad gets a wicket on his very first ball and this is a huge, huge one for the Afghans. Noor Ahmad starts off with a full googly, around the leg stump line. Litton Das premeditates and goes for a sweep shot, but the ball sneaks under the bat and thuds on the front pad. A loud, confident appeal for LBW straightaway, but turned down by the umpire. Looked to be pitching outside leg but Rashid Khan has referred it upstairs. UltraEdge shows no bat involved and the Ball Tracking shows the ball is pitching inside the line and it is projected to smash into the middle stump. A successful review for the Afghans and the on-field decision is overturned. Litton Das departs for 9 (11) and how many times have we seen a wicket falling right after the hydration break? Bangladesh are 87/2. 87/2

18.1 OUT! TAKEN IN THE DEEP! Azmatullah Omarzai with a timely wicket for Afghanistan! He goes fuller and wide outside off, Tawhid Hridoy does the right thing by staying deep inside his crease and carving it away nicely. However, unfortunately for him, he hits it flat and aerially straight towards sweeper covers. He doesn't get the required distance, and Karim Janat takes a couple of steps forward, crouches low, and takes a good catch. Hridoy departs for 26 off 20, and Bangladesh are 139/5 now! 139/5

15.3 OUT! LBW! Rashid Khan has his second now as well! He fires this one full and on middle, skids through a bit. Shamim Hossain looks to work it across the line but even before he gets his bat down, the ball hits his front pad right in front of the stumps. There is a huge shout for LBW, and the finger goes up. This looks plumb but Shamim takes the review more in hope than anything. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. Hossain walks back for a run-a-ball 11, and Bangladesh are four down now. 121/4

0.1 OUT! LBW! What a dream start for Nasum Ahmed and Bangladesh! They are absolutely pumped, and why shouldn't they be? The change to bring Nasum back in the team and giving him the new ball has worked wonders for the Bangla Tigers. Coming to the delivery, this is the arm ball, full and on middle, skids through and angles in too. Sediqullah Atal is caught in his crease and looks to work it across the line but plays down the wrong line, and gets hit on the pads right in front of the stumps. There is a big shout for LBW, and up goes the finger. Atal has a chat with his partner, but does not take the review. He walks back for a golden duck, and Afghanistan are 0/1! 0/1

10.2 OUT! TAKEN! Rishad Hossain gets the big fish here! Bangladesh lost Litton Das right after the Drinks break, and now Afghanistan loses Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who had to take this game deep. This is tossed up, full and on off, turns away a bit. Gurbaz goes down across to sweep it away but the ball bounces a bit extra. It takes the top edge and flies in the air and towards deep square leg, where Jaker Ali gets on his knees and pouches it safely. Gurbaz just sits there on his haunches in extreme disappointment but has to walk back for 35 off 31. Afghanistan are 62/4 now! 62/4

4.1 OUT! LBW! Nasum Ahmed strikes again, or does he? YES HE DOES! The umpire raises his finger for a LBW appeal, but Ibrahim Zadran takes a review here. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved, and Ball Tracking comes up with two reds and umpire's call on wickets. Coming to the delivery, this is an arm ball, which is a lethal weapon for Nasum. On middle and angles in too. Zadran, just like Atal, tries to play from the crease but misses as the ball hurries through to hit the pads. Afghanistan are 18/2 now, still needing 137 runs in 95 balls! 18/2

8.3 OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! A soft, soft dismissal and Rishad Hossain has struck at a very important time for Bangladesh! He bowls it fuller and on a lower trajectory this time around, on the off stump line. Gulbadin Naib gets on the front foot and tries to work it to the leg side, but closes the bat face a bit early in the process. Hence, a leading edge is found and the ball travels flat and straight into the hands of Rishad Hossain who takes a simple return catch. Gulbadin Naib departs for 16 (14) and Afghanistan are 51/3, needing another 104 runs to win off 69 balls. 51/3

13 OUT! DRAGGED ON! The pressure was on from The Fizz the entire over, and he finishes it on a high. He goes pace on this time, on a good length and much closer to the off stump. Mohammad Nabi stays in his crease and tries to guide it away but the ball is too close to his body. He only manages to get an inside edge back onto the stumps. Nabi departs for a run-a-ball 15 and Afghanistan lose half their side now, still needing 78 off 42. 77/5

15.4 OUT! STRAIGHT UP AND TAKEN! A perfect response from Taskin Ahmed and he releases out a huge roar! Smart change of pace from Ahmed, as he rolls the fingers and dishes out a deceptive off-cutter. On a length, landing on the seam and around off. Azmatullah Omarzai backs away and tries to whack it over the off side, but is through the shot early. Only manages to get it off the toe end and the ball is skied high up. Saif Hassan at backward point, settles under it and takes a fine catch. First wicket for Taskin. Azmatullah Omarzai departs for 30 off 16 balls and Afghanistan are 109/6, needing 46 runs off 26 balls. 109/6

17.1 OUT! RUN OUT! A huge moment in the game and Bangladesh refuse to back down one bit! Excellent commitment in the field by Nurul Hasan! Nasum drops it short and just outside off. Karim Janat rocks back in the crease and smashes it a bit uppishly, to the left of Hasan at cover. He flings himself with a full-length dive to his left and intercepts the ball. Now, Karim is off for a run and is almost halfway through, but Rashid refuses to run and sends him back. Spotting this, Nurul releases the throw towards Litton Das at the batting end and with Karim Janat out by a country mile, Das whips the bails off. And even a dive cannot save him here. 124/7

18.2 OUT! GONE! CAUGHT! Is that the match for Bangladesh? Mustafizur Rahman delivers gold when it matters the most for his side. He bowls it too full and outside the off stump line. Rashid Khan bends low and jams his bat down, opening the bat face very late. Doesn't manage to keep it along the ground and the ball goes flat into the hands of Taskin Ahmed at short third. Rashid Khan departs for a quickfire 20 off just 11 balls. Afghanistan are 132/8, needing 23 runs off 10 balls. 132/8

20 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! A slower ball from Taskin, at 115 kph, full and around off. Noor Ahmad swings through the line, hits it aerially, but slices it off the bat, and hence, does not get the distance required. Sails it straight down the throat of Nurul Hasan stationed at the long off fence. Nurul doesn't have to move a muscle and takes a simple catch. Taskin Ahmed finishes with two wickets. Disappointing faces in the Afghan hut, and exact contrary emotions in the opposite dugout. BANGLADESH WIN BY 8 RUNS! 146/10

18.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! 'The Fizz' gets his third wicket and has brought Bangladesh almost within touching distance to win this one! Bowls on a back of a length, angling outside off, AM Ghazanfar just hangs the bat away from the body and tries to work it off side, but plays inside the line and gets a faint outside edge. Litton Das collects it comfortably behind the wickets. Mustafizur Rahman is on a HAT TRICK! Afghanistan are 132/9. 132/9
