- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.2 taken at extra cover but they're checking for no-ball. It's very very close. If he has managed to get anything behind the line, then it's by a few centimeters. But it doesn't look like he has any part of the heel behind it. Tamim stepped out and looked to whip one on the up over the leg side. Got an thick edge that lobbed up easily for the extra cover fielder. He's been told he's out. So the third umpire couldn't conclusively say that was a no-ball. A good start provided, nonetheless. And a nice first wicket to get in on debuts in T20Is for 19-year-old Madhevere 92/112.6 given lbw. Liton walks off, then turns around and changes his mind to get the review in with one second on the clock. A wristspin release from Raza but this slides straight on from a good length. Liton maybe expected that to spin away and was pushing outside off. He's also shuffled. Beaten on the inside edge, and struck right in front of off stump. Tracking confirms that is plumb 106/215.5 taken at mid-off. Full ball slanted across him. Gets his weight on the back foot and looks to scoop it over the infield there, but it's off the low part of the bat and taken at the circle 146/3Extras7 (lb 2, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL200/3 (20 Overs, RR: 10)Fall of wickets: 1-92 (Tamim Iqbal, 10.2 ov), 2-106 (Litton Das, 12.6 ov), 3-146 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 15.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.2 gone this time! He was aiming for another maximum, but the connection just wasn't there. This one was also a little too full, and he couldn't get underneath it enough. Long off makes no mistake 69/41.6 flicked uppishly, caught! Taylor's troubles continue, and his dismissal tonight is very similar to that in the Sylhet ODI. Taylor makes room, Shafiul follows him with a length delivery, and he flaps it in the air to be easily snaffled by the man at midwicket 11/14.2 Ervine's trapped in front! He walks into a flick into the leg side, but plays over a ball that zips in to him through the air and off the track. It's nicely full, and looked to be heading for middle and off 30/25.3 is he run out here? This looks very tight! The ball is tucked into the leg side, and they push hard for a second run. But the throw from the deep is a good one, as is the take from Mushfiqur. He collects it in front of the stumps, whipping his gloves back in a flash to disturb the stumps with Madhevere just short of his ground. Bangladesh have a third strike inside the Powerplay, and they're bossing this 37/38.3 caught off a full toss! Williams is livid. It was a high full toss, and he could have hit this almost anywhere. Instead, he picks out the man at deep square leg, directly. Soumya barely had to move before the ball landed in his lap. Suddenly, Aminul's on a hat-trick! 69/511.3 taken. On the second attempt. Short of a length, slides straight on in the corridor but keeps low. Raza looks to punch through the covers but it takes a feather of an under-edge and he's gone 83/614.1 wonderfully taken at extra cover. Liton Das runs backwards and gets the reverse cup out to take a difficult one. Full ball outside off, probably a cutter. Lines up and looks to slog it over the leg side. Ends up slicing it high, it'd land in front of long-off if there wasn't anyone there. But Liton keeps his eyes on it and lunges backwards to hold on 107/812.6 taken at short third man. Tossed up outside off and he takes the bait. Skips down the pitch to try and go over the off side, but ends up getting a thick outside edge that's straight to the man positioned there 100/716.4 dragged onto the stumps. But has he overstepped? No, looks just okay. Slower ball at a length, skids low and he's through the attempted slog too early. Gets an inside edge and he's gone 130/918.6 taken at long-off and Bangladesh are into the lead in the series. Cutter at a length in the corridor, looks for the long hit again, ends up slicing that high and harmlessly for Liton there 152/10Extras12 (lb 1, w 11)TOTAL152 all out (19 Overs, RR: 8)Fall of wickets: 1-11 (Brendan Taylor, 1.6 ov), 2-30 (Craig Ervine, 4.2 ov), 3-37 (Wessly Madhevere, 5.3 ov), 4-69 (Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, 8.2 ov), 5-69 (Sean Williams, 8.3 ov), 6-83 (Sikandar Raza, 11.3 ov), 7-100 (Tinotenda Mutombodzi, 12.6 ov), 8-107 (Richmond Mutumbami, 14.1 ov), 9-130 (Donald Tiripano, 16.4 ov), 10-152 (Carl Mumba, 18.6 ov)
