BAN 159/5 (20)
NED 134/8 (20)
Levitt confidently shuffles across the crease and expertly slogs the second delivery over the square leg fence for a magnificent six runs. A moment of tension arises as Levitt hits the ball to mid off and attempts a quick single, narrowly avoiding being run out by a direct hit.
FOUR! A slower delivery outside off stump prompts Shakib to swing his bat with the same finesse as Jaker Ali did in the previous over, resulting in a boundary off the edge. Another FOUR! This time, Shakib expertly pulls the ball away to the boundary.
Tanzid elegantly dances down the pitch and expertly drives the delivery through the covers for a boundary. Bangladesh is currently operating at full throttle. Another boundary! This time, a short delivery down the leg side is effortlessly pulled by Tanzid past deep square leg.
Shakib is offered width and he elegantly uppercuts the ball over point for a boundary. Another well-executed cut shot follows, this time keeping the ball along the ground. A wide delivery is bowled next, resulting in a third boundary of the over. Shakib attempts a pull shot, but ends up getting a top edge that flies over to the fine leg fence for another four runs through backward point.
