11.1 OUT! ABHISHEK SHARMA IS RUN OUT! Rishad Hossain can do no wrong tonight. This is pushed across the right-hander, on a back of a length. Suryakumar hangs back and steers it with an open bat face towards backward point. Rishad dives to his left but Abhishek sets off for the run and does not wait for the ball to get past the fielder. Hossain cuts it off with a dive to his left but sticks out his right hand to grab the ball. Gets rid of the ball immediately as he gets up on his feet and throws it on the bounce towards the bowling end. Mustafizur Rahman is quick to turn around and get up to the stumps at the bowling end. The throw is at a good height and near the stumps. Fizz collects and disturbs the stumps. The third umpire is called in. Rahman goes at it with both hands but the ball nestles in his left hand. He brings both hands close to the stumps and breaks the stumps with the left hand, the hand he had the ball in before the right hand makes contact with the stumps. Abhishek is well short despite the dive. Abhishek Sharma looks dejected as he walks back for a superb 75 off just 37 deliveries. India are 112/3 down now. 112/3

6.2 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Rishad Hossain provides the first breakthrough for Bangladesh and breaks the dangerous-looking opening stand of India! Hossain serves it up, tosses it around off on a fuller length. Shubman Gill accepts the invite and tries to smash it over long off, but does not get his bat underneath the ball properly. Hence, the bat gets twisted at the point of contact and the ball is sliced towards long off. Tanzim Hasan Sakib stationed in the deep, moves a bit to his right, judges the trajectory well and takes a good catch at the edge of the ropes. Shubman Gill departs for 29 (19) and India are 77/1. 77/1

| Shivam Dube | 2 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 66.66 |

8.1 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! The ploy to promote Dube up the order doesn't go well for him! Rishad Hossain has his second! Hossain dishes out a fuller delivery, just around the off pole. It is the googly and Shivam Dube doesn't read off the bowler's hand. Goes through the shot in an attempt to clear the leg side, but gets it mistimed off the toe end, and the ball goes straight down the throat of Tawhid Hridoy stationed at long off. India are 83/2 as Shivam Dube departs for 2 (3). 83/2

12 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mustafizur Rahman strikes! Suryakumar Yadav has been strangled down leg. On a short of a length, down leg. SKY swings to help it away and there seems to be a clear deflection as the ball goes behind. The keeper, Jaker Ali dives to his left full-length and takes the catch. Bangladesh go up in unison but the umpire is unmoved. It is sent upstairs by Jaker and the UltraEdge shows a clear spike when the ball is next to the bat. The on-field decision gets overturned to OUT. A good comeback over from the Fizz after going for 17 runs in his first over. Another underwhelming stint with the bat from Suryakumar Yadav as he goes for a scratchy 5 (11). 112/2 becomes 114/4 for India. 114/4

20 OUT! GONE! CAUGHT! This is a very positive finish for Bangladesh! On a fullish length, at 128.7 kph, angling on the off stump line, Hardik Pandya attempts to sail it over long off, but neither does he get the distance nor the height for doing so. Ends up sailing it straight into the hands of the fielder stationed at long off. Tanzid Hasan takes a simple catch over his head. Just 4 runs off the final over. INDIA FINISH WITH 168/6 ON THE BOARD! 168/6

14.3 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! The slower ball does the trick and Tanzim Hasan Sakib strikes on his return to the attack. Tanzim rolls his fingers over the ball as he serves the off-cutter from over the wicket, on a good length. Tilak crouches and looks to get under the ball. Swipes across the line and skies it towards deep square leg. Saif Hassan does not quite settle under it and has to dive in front in the end to snaffle it. Tilak Varma departs for 5 (7) and India have slipped down to 129/5. 129/5

17.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Taken on the second attempt and that is the end of the fight from Saif Hassan! Bowled with an upright seam by Bumrah at pace, on a length, around the off stump. Saif sets deep in the crease, clears the front leg, and swings to go back over the bowler's head. Does not quite get the distance to get it over Axar Patel at long on. Axar steadies himself and stays side on. Looks to take the catch to his left, and the ball pops out of his hand initially, but he balances himself and keeps his feet away from the boundary cushions to complete the catch on the second attempt. A huge relief for India as the in-form Saif Hassan departs for a fighting 69 (51). Bangladesh are 116/9. 116/9

1.2 OUT! STRAIGHT UP AND TAKEN! After a rare off day against Pakistan, Bumrah starts off with an early wicket this time around! Serves it full and on the off stump line, does Bumrah. Tanzid Hasan gets a bit across and tries to flick that away to the leg side, but ends up getting a thick leading edge. The ball pops high in the sky, just above mid on.

6.2 OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! The change of length works wonders for Kuldeep Yadav! Parvez is across the stumps once again to employ the sweep but the ball is not full enough for the broom. It is outside off and Emon reaches out in front to get the sweep again. A top edge is found and it goes straight down the throat of Abhishek Sharma at deep mid-wicket, who makes no mistake. Parvez Hossain Emon departs on 21 (19) and Bangladesh are 46/2, needing 123 more runs to win! 46/2

9.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Tawhid Hridoy never really got going and this is a big dent to Bangladesh's chances in the chase! Axar stays around the wicket and slows it down. Gives the ball a bit of air too, on middle, on a length. Tawhid Hridoy is lured in the flight and swings to go down the ground whilst staying leg side of the ball. He is through the shot early and skies it off the toe end of the bat towards long on. Abhishek Sharma runs a few steps in off the ropes and takes the catch close to his chest. 65/3

12.3 OUT! JAKER ALI IS RUN OUT! A brilliant piece of fielding from the Indian skipper, Suryakumar Yadav. In an attempt to reach his milestone in a cheeky fashion, Saif Hassan lunges with a giant stride to push this full ball towards the cover region. Calls Jaker through for a quick single. Suryakumar Yadav shows great agility and dives forward and scores a direct hit at the batting end with an underarm throw. Jaker Ali puts in a desperate dive to make his ground, but the replay finds him short of his crease. Jaker Ali departs for 4 (5) and Bangladesh are 87/5. 87/5
