- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4 cleaned him up with a beauty, one that any offspinner would be proud of. The ball drifted in from wide of the crease. Because he slowed it down, Tharanga was drawn forward. This one didn't tun big, but deviated just about enough to beat the forward push and crash into the stumps. Wow, can watch that on replay many many more times. 18/20.4 looks to whip this across when he could've looked to play straight, the ball hits the top part of the bat, may have stopped on him as a puff of dust on the surface indicates, and mid-on takes a dolly. He didn't even have to move. 1/113.2 Jayasuriya-like flick but can't clear the ropes. This is straight down the throat of deep midwicket where Mominul redeems himself. This was an absolute dolly. Sylhet slide further. 71/58.3 dolly down to deep fine leg. Effort ball, he dug this in short, the angle was taking it down. So he decided to take him on with the pull and helped it along to the lone man in the deep. 41/312.2 fires this full and straight, Nasir goes for an ugly across-the-line swipe and is bowled. Samit is pumped. This was too full to play the slog, no length to play such a stroke. 69/419.4 pulled straight to square leg. Sher-e-Bangla goes quiet but quickly rises to applaud a stunning knock. Match-changing, potentially. 140/6Extras1 (w 1)TOTAL146/6 (20 Overs, RR: 7.3)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Andre Fletcher, 0.4 ov), 2-18 (Upul Tharanga, 3.6 ov), 3-41 (Nurul Hasan, 8.3 ov), 4-69 (Nasir Hossain, 12.2 ov), 5-71 (Danushka Gunathilaka, 13.2 ov), 6-140 (Sabbir Rahman, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR12.1 healthy edge through to the keeper. Length ball angling away, looks to steer this down to third man but could only manage to feather it through. Done in by extra bounce 97/38.3 as far as stumpings go, it can't get easier than that. Rony shimmied down the pitch to swing this over cow corner but feet nowhere near the pitch. Completely beaten in flight. Played for the turn but this went on with the arm as well to beat the swing. So far down was he that the keeper had enough time to gather the ball cleanly, keep his composure and slowly take the bails off. 65/19.1 there's another one. Samit Patel's done in by indecision. Wasn't sure whether to go for a full-blooded cut or simply bunt that away. This one spun sway sharply from outside off. Samit had a nervous poke and got a thin edge as Nurul did the rest. 66/2Extras7 (lb 1, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL150/3 (17.3 Overs, RR: 8.57)Fall of wickets: 1-65 (Rony Talukdar, 8.3 ov), 2-66 (Samit Patel, 9.1 ov), 3-97 (Mominul Haque, 12.1 ov)
