BAN vs AFG Live Cricket Score

2.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Mustafizur Rahman draws first blood. Rahmanullah Gurbaz departs for a timid score. This is the start the hosts were after. A full-length ball, on middle and off at 137.1 kph. Rahmanullah Gurbaz walks down the track, makes a little room and looks to go big across the line. But all he manages to do is hit it off the bottom half of the blade and skies it towards mid on. Tamim Iqbal keeps his eyes on the ball, moves a bit to his right and gathers it safely in the end. 11/1

13.2 OUT! CAUGHT AT SLIP! Yasir Ali, the debutant, makes no mistake and helps his side to get the breakthrough they were looking for! A length ball, outside off, shaping away a hint. Ibrahim Zadran stays inside the crease and looks to drive it away through the off side. He only manages to get an outside edge which flies towards the only slip fielder. Yasir Ali gets low and pouches the ball safely in the second attempt. Shoriful Islam gets his first wicket of the innings and is all pumped up! 56/2

22 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Taskin's hard work pays off! The speedster runs in and delivers it on a shortish length around off, at 136 kph. Rahmat Shah is on his toes as he tries to play it square of the wicket on the off side. But there is some extra bounce on the delivery and it shoots up to kiss the shoulder of his blade. Mushfiqur Rahim takes a simple catch and Afghanistan lose their third wicket. 79/3

28 OUT! CAUGHT! Mahmudullah does the trick with his off spin. He gets a wicket in his very first over. A top decision by the skipper. It is tossed up, outside off and a bit on the shorter side, Hashmatullah Shahidi stays inside the crease and looks to cut it to the off side. The ball though takes the toe end of his bat and Mushfiqur Rahim grabs the ball sharply behind the sticks. Mahmudullah appeals and the umpire raises his dreaded finger. The Afghanistan skipper trudges back to the pavilion. 102/4

48.4 OUT! Zadran holes out! Clever deception from Shoriful Islam. Bowls it slower through the air and lands it in the half for the batter, Najibullah Zadran decides to go downtown with full force but has no pace to work with. Fails to generate his own power and it ends up being a tame aerial shot to long on. Mahmudullah takes an easy catch in the deep. End of a painstaking knock from Zadran but he at least put up a fight. 214/9

38.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Again, you have to credit Tamim Iqbal for this bowling change. A very dangerous partnership has been broken and Taskin Ahmed is all smiles. This is a beautiful outswinger from him, he lands it close to off and gets it to nip away a shade. Mohammad Nabi tries driving through the line but the away movement results in an outside edge and Mushfiqur Rahim dives across to his right to complete the catch. 165/5

44.3 OUT! LBW! The umpire raises his dreaded finger. This is brilliant bowling by Shakib Al Hasan. An arm ball, angled in from outside off. Gulbadin Naib leans in and tries to defend it out but misses to get hit on the pads. Shakib Al Hasan appeals and the umpire raises his finger. Naib takes the review and the UltraEdge shows no bat is involved. The Ball Tracking shows three reds and Naib continues his walk to the pavilion. 194/6

45 OUT! TIMBER! Shakib Al Hasan picks up his second wicket of the over and a smile breaks out on his face. Flatter and around off, a touch short and skidding on with the angle at 87.8 kph, Rashid stays inside the crease and looks to punch it away but misses. The ball sneaks through the gap and uproots the off stump. Afghanistan slip further. 194/7

45.5 OUT! CAUGHT! Identical to the last delivery and this time the leading edge has flown in the air. Fuller and around middle, at 114.9 kph, Mujeeb closes the face of the bat very early in his attempt to flick and hands a simple catch to Najmul Hossain Shanto (sub) at covers. Afghanistan are not finishing strongly here. 195/8

49.1 OUT! CAUGHT! Mustafizur Rahman delivers it full and in the line of the leg stump, Yamin Ahmadzai steps back to make room and tries to play an inside-out shot through the line. The connection though is not quite there and the ball balloons towards extra cover. Mahmudullah runs back a bit from inside the ring, perhaps misjudges it slightly but eventually does well to catch it over his head as he tumbles down. Afghanistan are all out for 215! 215/10

2.5 OUT! LBW! A body blow to Bangladesh as their skipper returns and what an over from Fazalhaq Farooqi - has removed both the openers in a matter of three balls. Great delivery from Fazalhaq Farooqi, he serves it on a length outside off and gets it to nip back in sharply. Tamim is forward a shade in defense but it beats his bat and pings him on the front pad. The appeal is not entertained. It's a big wicket so Hashmatullah Shahidi is ready to take his chance with the referral. UltraEdge finds no bat and the Ball Tracking brings a lot of joy in the Afghan camp. Three reds and Tamim returns dejected. The crowd has gone silent. 14/2

2.3 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Fantastic delivery and Afghanistan have got an early breakthrough. Zippy delivery, on a length around off and skidding off the surface, Das tries to block from the back foot but it whizzes past the inside edge. Rahmanullah Gurbaz collects the ball with a dive and is charging forward in appeal but the finger stays down. The keeper has convinced his skipper to take the DRS. UltraEdge detects a spike and Fazalhaq Farooqi draws first blood. 13/1

7.4 OUT! DRAGGED ON! Afghanistan are all over Bangladesh at the moment as half of the side has been sent back to the pavilion. Mujeeb Ur Rahman gets his first wicket of the innings. He is elated. A carrom ball is delivered wide outside off, Shakib Al Hasan looks to chase it but only manages to get an inside edge and the ball goes onto rattle the stumps. Shakib Al Hasan trudges back as well. 28/5

4.1 OUT! LBW! Mushfiqur Rahim is gone. Fazalhaq Farooqi is on fire. Brilliant stuff from the left-arm seamer. He is getting the ball to bend back in. Lands it around off and it moves back in to beat the forward defensive prod of Mushfiqur Rahim. He is rapped on the pads and the finger has gone up. Rahim though has taken the referral. It's pad first, confirms the UltraEdge as the bat is a little away. The Ball Tracking finds everything adjacent - three reds and Rahim is sent packing as well. Seems they all prepared for Rashid Khan and Fazalhaq Farooqi has come out of the syllabus. 18/3

5 OUT! STUMPS SHATTERED! This is sensational from Fazalhaq Farooqi. He is getting the ball to talk both ways and has the speed to breach the defense as well. Hurls it across on a length around middle, at 136.4 kph, it lands and skids through as Yasir Ali is late in bringing his bat down. The ball sneaks through and demolishes the stumps. Fazalhaq Farooqi jumps in joy, he has picked four wickets in his three overs. Dream stuff, a double-wicket maiden! 18/4

11.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Rashid Khan does what he does best! A flat delivery, on the shorter side outside off and it spins away at 94.3 kph. Mahmudullah goes deep inside the crease and tries to force it through the off side. But the ball turns to take the outside edge and travels at the rate of knots to first slip. Gulbadin Naib is alert and snaps a fantastic catch. Six wickets down and Bangladesh are inching closer to an embarrassing defeat. 45/6
