Ziaur Rahman To Rohit Sharma
FOUR! A chance goes down. Fareed Ahmad completely lost the ball in the lights. This is on a hard length, outside off. Rohit throws his hands at the ball. It flies down to deep third off a thickish outside edge. Fareed at the boundary, bends and gets into position, but completely loses sight of the ball under the lights. He is forced to shield his eyes with his hands and takes evasive action. The ball bounces past him and goes away for a four.

Delivers it on a good length, on off. Jaiswal punches it on the up to cover-point.
AM Ghazanfar seems to have hurt himself here while trying to save the boundary. He's stayed down for a bit and is receiving treatment just outside the boundary ropes. Hopefully, he is fine.

Fareed Ahmad To Yashasvi Jaiswal
FOUR! AM Ghazanfar should have done better there, and Fareed Ahmad is not happy one bit. Fractionally short and equally wide, on off. Jaiswal cuts it onto the turf and the ball bounces over the leaping Nangeyalia Kharote at backward point. AM Ghazanfar gets around from deep third with a sprint to his left and dives, but the ball sneaks under his body.

Fareed Ahmad To Rohit Sharma
FOUR! Oh, dear! Rahmanullah Gurbaz has kicked it over the fence. Cross-seam ball, on the shorter side, on off. Rohit goes hard on the pull but the ball catches a top edge and it is skied behind the wicket. Gurbaz, with the gloves on, goes after it, but the ball drops out of reach. A bit of backspin on the ball and it catches Gurbaz on the knee, who cannot slam the brakes quickly enough. The ball pings him on the right knee, and Gurbaz accidentally deflects it away beyond the fence.

Ziaur Rahman To Yashasvi Jaiswal
Overthrows! Angling away, not all that short, on off. Jaiswal cuts it to backward point, where there is a slight fumble from Nangeyalia Kharote and the batters sneak in a quick single. Kharote fires in a throw at the batting end but misses and the fielder backing up cannot mop it up cleanly, allowing the batters to run the second run.
