7.35 pm Who'd have thought that Dhaka would only have to chase 143 after Rangpur were at 74 after seven overs? Dhaka's bowlers neutralised Chris Gayle's early damage and now have a very chaseable total ahead of them. Rangpur may think they're 30 short but atleast they have a score their bowlers can bowl to. We'll be back soon.

Shakib Al Hasan to Rubel Hossain, OUT, and they're all out! Shakib finishes with his third-five wicket haul in the career! Good length on off stump and goes for a big slog. Misses as his feet slide outside the crease. Jahurul is quick to remove the bails, and they're appeal for the stumping. The umpire, though, reckons he's caught out. Took a small edge through to the keeper. Four wickets off the last five balls of this over and Rangpur Riders are all out for 142.

Zahid: "I take my word back. Shakib is back! :-)"

Abad: "RR were 74 after 7 over and they are 141 after 19.1 overs which says a lot about their team combination. " -- Credit also to Dhaka's combination of slow bowlers

Shakib Al Hasan to Bopara, 1 run, OUT, wide outside off, lifted over mid off for a single, wide long off gets to it quickly and quick release from Mosaddek. Bopara wants the second, but Ziaur is stuck to his crease at the striker's end. Bopara has to go as Shakib breaks the stumps off his second attempt

RS Bopara run out 12 (16b 0x4 0x6) SR: 75.00

Shakib to finish things off. He's bowled really well today. Can he finish it off on a positive note? Rangpur will look to cross 150 to be happy after 20 overs.
