- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.6 what a way to get out! Premeditates to play the reverse sweep, Zampa goes absolutely full on middle stump. Misses the shot, ball goes under the bat, and the stumps have been broken. A promising innings over with a shot he'd like to forget 37/23.3 chopped on! Made room to cut, Hazlewood follows him to cramp him for room, so Soumya tries to run it down to third man but ends up smashing the middle stump as he opens the bat face to steer 15/116.6 dragged on! Shakib deceived by the slower one, looks to slam this across the line but can only get a thick inside edge onto the stumps 104/512.2 Henriques, you beauty! And that's Hazlewood's second. Knuckle ball, full on middle. Comes down the ground to clear long off, but through the shot too early. Ball's going over mid off (Henriques) but he runs back, tracks the ball over his left shoulder, and then dives to take a catch 73/314.3 overpitched, very wide outside off, knuckleball. But he walks towards the off side and try and slice a shot over point. Mistimed, point (Marsh) runs back but keeps his eyes on the ball. Takes it from near his face and goes tumbling backwards. 86/419.6 hits bulls eye! Yorker-length, late reverse in to beat the inside edge as Afif looks to slog this into the stands. 131/717.6 knocked him over! Full, fast, furious, late tail in and hits the base of leg-stump. Too quick for Shamim 114/6Extras6 (b 1, lb 1, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL131/7 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-15 (Soumya Sarkar, 3.3 ov), 2-37 (Mohammad Naim, 6.6 ov), 3-73 (Mahmudullah, 12.2 ov), 4-86 (Nurul Hasan, 14.3 ov), 5-104 (Shakib Al Hasan, 16.6 ov), 6-114 (Shamim Hossain, 17.6 ov), 7-131 (Afif Hossain, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.1 bowled first ball! And what a start this is for Bangladesh! Round-arm from around the stumps. Length ball on off and skidding inwards. Carey tries to cut, expecting it to turn, and pays the price. Stumps are s-h-a-t-t-e-r-e-d! 0/11.4 Caught or stumped? Either way, he's outta here! Tossed up, wide outside off and Philippe comes down the wicket and goes for an inside out cover drive. Turns away sharply, but Philippe is way outside his crease as he misses the shot. Through to Nurul, who whips the bails off, and Philippe isn't even waiting for the decision. Replays say that's not caught, but stumped. 10/215.3 is that the clincher? Mitch Marsh is out slog-sweeping. Shoriful with an outstanding catch running in. Ran in at least a good 10-15 yards and then put in a dive forward to complete it. Nasum has his fourth. 84/62.1 first ball wicket for Shakib! Slower through the air. Full and wide outside off. Henriques tries to sweep behind square, but it its the inside half of his bat, rolls between his legs, and knocks off stump back. The tigers are roaring! 11/39.4 good length, outside leg. Wayward ball, turning way down leg stump, but Wade tries to pull it fine. Smacked straight to short fine leg! One of the worse deliveries every to earn a wicket, and the captain has to go. 49/413.2 oh dear, Agar has smashed his leg into the wicket and has to go. He worked it neatly with the spin to short fine but the back leg was too far back into the crease. The boot touched the stumps to dislodge the bails as he tried to work it fine. 71/517.3 sliced to the man at extra cover! Great comeback by the Fizz. This is a cutter on a length, deviates big and Turner is deceived as he looks to go downtown again. 100/719.6 cuts back in to beat him neck and crop! The off-stump takes a beating as the fizz finishes this off in style. Bangladesh lead 1-0 108/1018.2 hit well but can only find the throat of the long-off fielder who didn't have to move an inch. As easy as they come 102/818.5 heaved into the leg side but that's one more into the bag for Bangladesh as deep midwicket takes a dolly. 104/9Extras9 (lb 2, w 7)TOTAL108 all out (20 Overs, RR: 5.4)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Alex Carey, 0.1 ov), 2-10 (Josh Philippe, 1.4 ov), 3-11 (Moises Henriques, 2.1 ov), 4-49 (Matthew Wade, 9.4 ov), 5-71 (Ashton Agar, 13.2 ov), 6-84 (Mitchell Marsh, 15.3 ov), 7-100 (Ashton Turner, 17.3 ov), 8-102 (Andrew Tye, 18.2 ov), 9-104 (Adam Zampa, 18.5 ov), 10-108 (Mitchell Starc, 19.6 ov)
