8.08pm After Afghanistan's openers creamed 75 for the first wicket, it was all Bangladesh thereafter. Five single-digit partnerships for Afghanistan after that dismissal, and that's the reason why Afghanistan made only 138. See you in ten minutes for the chase.

Mustafizur Rahman to Rashid Khan, no run, full, just outside leg stump, and he tries to play the reverse paddle. Hits his front leg and Mustafizur appeals for lbw, but not given. Shakib reviews and the replays confirm that it pitched outside leg. They lose their review
Final over. Fizz to bowl out. AFG will look to reach 140. The umpires are having a chat, not sure why. Are there 12 Bangladesh players on the ground? Not quite sure...
