- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6 Taijul wraps up the Powerplay with the wicket of Liton Das. The batsman charged out, Taijul was wary of it and fired it shorter and wider outside off. Liton swings right across the line and against the turn... and misses it. He was nowhere close to the pitch of the ball. The keeper flips the bails off to catch Liton short 40/24.4 Nasir returns and has Kayes chopping on. The crowd gets behind Sylhet. This is nothing but a straight ball, Nasir held it back, though. Kayes backs away outside leg and looks to crack it through the covers. Instead, he can only drag a thick inside edge back onto the stumps 36/119.1 Plunkett hunts for the middle-stump yorker, but misses his length and comes out with a low full-toss. Samuels has a swipe at it but holes out to long-on 137/67.1 Taijul claims the key wicket of Buttler! The left-arm spinner has the big hitter holing out to long-off. On a length and drifts in at middle stump, Buttler steps away outside leg eyeing up an inside-out loft. Instead, he checks it at the last moment and chips it to his England team-mate Plunkett at long-off 44/313.2 Santokie errs too full on the pads, Kapali picks it up and and swings it into the hands of Sabbir at deep midwicket. He did not get enough power behind it 86/416.4 Nabi backs away outside leg, this is full and dipping at leg stump. The batsman aims to clear deep midwicket, no dice. Toe-ended in the air. Hom sprints about 25 yards to his left from deep midwicket and pulls off an excellent tumbling catch 114/5Extras7 (lb 3, w 4)TOTAL145/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.25)Fall of wickets: 1-36 (Imrul Kayes, 4.4 ov), 2-40 (Litton Das, 5.6 ov), 3-44 (Jos Buttler, 7.1 ov), 4-86 (Alok Kapali, 13.2 ov), 5-114 (Mohammad Nabi, 16.4 ov), 6-137 (Marlon Samuels, 19.1 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR14 good length on middle, tucked off his hips to square leg for a quick run, and the fielder from square leg throws it in. It's a direct hit, and Tharanga has to go. Oh dear, what have you done Nasir? The Sri Lankan does not even wait for the replay to confirm the decision. He knows he's gone, and Samuels' over produces that all-important breakthrough. It was the sub, Raqibul, with the throw 102/28.4 there's the breakthrough, and DJ has started his celebration! Slower ball outside off and Fletcher charges down to smack this over Bravo's head. Slices this and it goes high in the air, Rashid Khan gets under it from cover and holds on to the catch 73/111.1 full on middle and Sabbir premeditates, tries to play the reverse sweep, and he misses the swipe, leg stump is exposed when the ball hits his pad, and the batsmen look to take a run. Quiet appeal from Nabi, and what is this... the umpire raises his finger. Out of nowhere! He reckons it is hitting middle and leg. Looked slightly high to me. Replays show it would've gone down leg 83/217 they're going up to the third umpire! Full on middle and entices Nasir to attempt the wild slog. His back foot is dragged out of the crease and Liton Das does well to collect the ball as it slides under the batsman's blade. The stumps are quickly broken and confirmation is Nasir is out. 118/419 Liton hits! Yorker on leg stump that takes the inside edge through to the keeper, Whiteley wants the single and races across but the keeper is accurate with the throw. Saves a run, and removes Whiteley 136/419.1 let's dance says Bravo! Slow and full on middle and leg, tries to play a cross-batted slog and hits his back pad, and rattles leg stump.
