- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.3 one shot too many, Kamunhukamwe falling early after a frenetic start to his knock. He walks across to the off side and bends down, aiming for a scoop shot, but the ball bursts past him, kissing the edge and nestling safely in Mushfiqur's gloves. First blood, Bangladesh 12/111.1 Ervine holes out! Afif is ecstatic. He looped his first ball up outside off and Ervine tried to go over long off, but sliced under the ball a little too much. Soumya settles under it, having run in a couple of yards from the long off boundary, and holds a simple catch 69/213.2 stumped! Williams charges out, but he can't get to the pitch of it and he's undone by some extra bounce. The ball didn't turn all that much, but zipped over the top of his swipe to leg. And that's Mahedi's very first international wicket! 76/315.5 slapped hard, but straight to the fielder. Canny bowling from Saifuddin, who loops down a back-of-the-hand slower ball. Raza spots it, getting across to flash a scoop behind square. But he can't get the elevation he wants, picking out the man at short fine leg 96/416.1 regulation chance, easily held! Hossain hits a length and Mutumbami rocks back into a big heave into the leg side. The shot was on, but the timing was off. Bangladesh have another one 97/518.3 top edge, and a simple catch! Mustafizur follows the full, wide one up with a short ball that bounces up at Mutombodzi. He pulls at it, aiming for the stands, but he's undone by the extra bounce. The ball takes the splice and loops tamely out to deep midwicket, where the fielder trots in to hold a regulation outfield catch. Never really got going, did Tino, and Bangladesh have another one 108/618.6 holes out first ball! Madhevere perishes in the pursuit of quick runs. The ball was short, another cutter, and it got big on him. He opened his stance and set himself at the crease, but couldn't hit it long enough to beat long on 113/7Extras1 (lb 1)TOTAL119/7 (20 Overs, RR: 5.95)Fall of wickets: 1-12 (Tinashe Kamunhukamwe, 2.3 ov), 2-69 (Craig Ervine, 11.1 ov), 3-76 (Sean Williams, 13.2 ov), 4-96 (Sikandar Raza, 15.5 ov), 5-97 (Richmond Mutumbami, 16.1 ov), 6-108 (Tinotenda Mutombodzi, 18.3 ov), 7-113 (Wessly Madhevere, 18.6 ov)
