AFG vs BAN Live Cricket Score

1.5 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Taskin Ahmed draws first blood and Rahmanullah Gurbaz has to depart early. Taskin pitches the ball a bit further up and wide of the off stump line, Gurbaz is lazy to get his feet across and just reaches out for the drive. The ball nips away and catches the outside edge, going down to the right of the keeper. Mushfiqur Rahim dives across and pouches it nicely and Afghanistan are 7 for 1 inside the first 2 overs. 7/1

9.2 OUT! LBW! A huge, huge appeal for LBW and eventually, the finger is raised. Mustafizur Rahman hurls in from over the wicket and goes a bit wide of the crease, bowling it fuller and angling it in from outside off. Sediqullah Atal looks to flick it away but plays all around the delivery and misses. The ball pings him on the pads and he has to walk back. No review taken and Atal goes for 21 off 30 on debut. 35/3

7.2 OUT! EDGED AND TAKEN! The ever reliable Shah is out of here. Fizz comes on and Fizz strikes. This is a very good start for Bangladesh! This is on a length and around off. It lands and angles away. Shah pokes at it. This goes off the outside edge and it is taken by the keeper. 30/2

40.2 OUT! CHOPPED ON! Mustafizur Rahman finally breaks the stand and gets his fourth wicket. Fizz takes pace off again and just bowls this one on a good length and around the fifth stump line, looking to angle it back in. Hashmatullah Shahidi stays rooted to the crease and just looks to guide it away but the inside edge is found and the ball goes back on to hit the stumps. Shahidi departs after a captain's knock. 175/6

9.5 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mustafizur Rahman on fire here! Lovely line and length from the Fizz. This is bowled just a tad full and on off, nibbling away from the right-hander. Azmatullah Omarzai looks to block off the front foot but pokes at it with and angled bat and a feather of an outside edge it found. Mushfiqur Rahim gobbles it up behind the stumps and Omarzai goes for a three-ball duck as the Fizz gets his third wicket. 35/4

20 OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the man and Taskin Ahmed has finally done it! Taskin steams in and digs in another short ball around off, again it doesn't get up high enough. Gulbadin Naib looks to swivel and pull but hits it flat and hard but straight towards mid-wicket where Tanzid Hasan takes a sharp catch and Naib has to walk back after a promising start for 22 runs. Taskin is elated and Bangladesh have their fifth wicket. 71/5

47.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Taskin Ahmed gets the big fish and there will be no century for Mohammad Nabi but a fine, fine knock nonetheless from Mr. President. Taskin digs in a slower bumper and bowls it at an awkward line right around the face. Nabi looks to take it on but mistimes the pull high up towards deep square leg where Tanzid Hasan settles under it and completes a safe catch. 219/8

42.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Shoriful Islam gets his first wicket and a big one at that as well. This is dug in well short and right at the batter, Rashid gets into an awkward position and tries to hook it away with some sort of a tennis shot. Rashid ends up jamming it straight into the hands of Mustafizur Rahman at mid-wicket and he makes no mistake. Afghanistan now 189/7. 189/7

47.4 OUT! TIMBER! Taskin Ahmed with the double whammy! Taskin goes quick and straight and full at the stumps to the new batter. AM Ghazanfar hangs back and gives himself room to smash the ball away but misses. The ball castles into the stumps and all of a sudden Taskin is on a hat-trick and it will be Fazalhaq Farooqi to face the hat-trick ball. 219/9

49.4 OUT! RUN OUT! That's it, Bangladesh have finally managed to bundle out Afghanistan but Shoriful Islam is visibly upset and rightly so. Gull and straight from Shoriful, angling in, Kharote squeezes it out towards deep mid-wicket and picks up a single but they want two again and start running. Towhid Hridoy fires in a throw at the bowler's end and Shoriful takes off the bails. Fazalhaq Farooqi is well short and Afghanistan finish with 235 on the board. 235/10
