2.5 : 2.5: Bilal Khan to Liton Das, OUT! LBW! A toe-crusher from Bilal Khan yet again, around middle and curling back in a bit, Das tries his best to dig it out but misses. He is rapped on the pads, they appeal but the finger stays down. Oman are reviewing it. The UltraEdge confirms that there is no bat and the Ball Tracker shows three reds. Crashing onto the stumps. Das' stay is over and the hosts are delighted. |
3.3 : 3.3: Kaleemullah to Mohammad Naim, FOUR! Width offered and Naim latches onto it. Short and around off, angling away, Naim hangs on the back foot and smacks it square of the wicket on the off side. No chance for the fielder in the deep. |
3.4 : 3.4: Kaleemullah to Mohammad Naim, SIX! Mohammad Naim is turning it on now for Bangladesh. Kaleemullah delivers it around middle and leg, on a length, Naim clears his front leg and heaves it all the way over mid-wicket for a maximum. Clean strike. |
4.3 : 4.3: Fayyaz Butt to Mahedi Hasan, OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! The move to promote Mahedi Hasan has not worked for Bangladesh. Slightly short in length around off, at 136 kph, it's not short enough to pull but Mahedi stands back to do that. He swings his bat across the line but the ball skids on sharply at him and takes the splice of his blade. The ball lobs back to the bowler and Fayyaz Butt does well to accept the return catch with a dive to his left. Outstanding effort and his teammates are mobb |
4.4 : 4.4: Fayyaz Butt to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR! Streaky! Shakib Al Hasan opens his account with a boundary. Not what he was looking to do but he will accept this. A full toss, around off, Shakib Al Hasan lines up to drive this away but he gets a thick outside edge and the ball runs away to the third man fence. |
6.5 : 6.5: Fayyaz Butt to Mohammad Naim, DROPPED AND SIX! Fayyaz Butt cannot believe it. Back of a length, outside off, Mohammad Naim jumps and slaps it aerially over covers. Jatinder Singh, running to his left in the deep, tries to catch it with his fingers pointing up. It bursts through his fingers and Singh ends up parrying it over the fence. Costly miss. |
8.2 : 8.2: Aqib Ilyas to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR! Shakib Al Hasan gets going now. Touch short, around middle and leg. Shakib Al Hasan goes back and pulls it through mid-wicket for a boundary. |
9.2: Kaleemullah to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR! Finally, Shakib Al Hasan connects with his paddle scoop. Touch fuller, on off, Shakib Al Hasan gets across and scoops it over short fine leg. The ball ends up in the boundary. |
10.3 : 10.3: Aqib Ilyas to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR! Fuller, on off, Shakib Al Hasan leans forward and lifts it delightfully over covers for a boundary. He was looking to play this shot for quite some time and has finally nailed one. |
11.1 : 11.1: Mohammad Nadeem to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR! The runs are flowing now for Bangladesh. Good use of the feet from Shakib Al Hasan. A full-length ball, on middle and leg. Shakib Al Hasan skips down the track and smacks it down the ground for a boundary at mid off. |
11.2 : 11.2: Mohammad Nadeem to Shakib Al Hasan, FOUR! Length ball, on the pads line, Shakib Al Hasan pulls it to backward square leg for another boundary. Shakib is turning it on here now for Bangladesh. |
11.4 : 11.4: Mohammad Nadeem to Mohammad Naim, SIX! Both the batters are getting the boundaries now at regular intervals. Short ball, at a comfortable height for Naim, he rocks back and pulls it powerfully over the mid-wicket fence for a biggie. |
12.3 : 12.3: Zeeshan Maqsood to Mohammad Naim, FOUR! Nicely played by Naim. Quicker, full and outside off, Naim comes across and reverse-hits it towards third man for a boundary. |
13.3: Fayyaz Butt to Shakib Al Hasan, OUT! RUN OUT! Oman needed some inspiration in the field and Aqib Ilyas, the man with the golden arm, provides his side with a breakthrough. A near-yorker around off. Shakib Al Hasan hangs back and digs it out to backward point. Naim calls for a single and Shakib Al Hasan takes off. Aqib Ilyas collects the ball and scores a direct hit at the non-striker's end. Shakib Al Hasan was not even in the frame when the replays rolled in. This is what Oman were h |
14.2 : 14.2: Zeeshan Maqsood to Mohammad Naim, FOUR! Fifty for Mohammad Naim! Full ball, on middle and leg, Naim clears his front leg and smashes it straight back past the bowler for a boundary. |
14.6 : 14.6: Zeeshan Maqsood to Nurul Hasan, OUT! Nurul Hasan departs! Fuller ball, on off, Nurul Hasan gets under it and looks to go big straight down the ground. Gets the elevation but fails to get enough distance on that one. Sandeep Goud at long off settles under it and takes a fine catch in the end. |
15.1 : 15.1: Bilal Khan to Mohammad Naim, SIX! Out of the park! Length ball, on off, Mohammad Naim lofts it over long on as his one hand comes off. Biggie. |
16.1: Kaleemullah to Afif Hossain, OUT! CAUGHT! Kaleemullah strikes to remove Afif. He delivers it full and outside off, Afif Hossain tries to smash it down the ground but fails to get the desired connection. It goes high in the air and Jatinder Singh moves across to his right from long off to catch the ball safely. |
16.4 : 16.4: Kaleemullah to Mohammad Naim, OUT! A big setback for Bangladesh as their set batsman departs in the end overs. Clever deception from Kaleemullah. He digs it in short, slower in pace around middle and off, Mohammad Naim camps back to pull but is a bit early into the shot. The ball flies to deep mid-wicket and Ayaan Khan comes running in to take an easy catch. A fine knock by Naim but his team needed him to last the distance. |
16.6 : 16.6: Kaleemullah to Mushfiqur Rahim, FOUR! Rahim opens his account with a smashing boundary. Short in length and just outside off, Mushfiqur Rahim rocks back and whacks it through the gap between backward point and short third man. Ruins the over slightly. 7 runs and two wickets from it! |
17.4 : 17.4: Mohammad Nadeem to Mahmudullah, SIX! Mahmudullah has thumped this one! Bangladesh need many more of these shots. Back of a length, on middle and leg, the Bangla skipper rides the bounce and muscles it behind square leg for a biggie. 75m on the radar. The ball is to be sanitized and hence there is a slight delay. |
18.1 : 18.1: Fayyaz Butt to Mushfiqur Rahim, OUT! Caught behind! Second wicket in the match for Butt and he thanks his stars. He hurls across a short delivery outside off slower in pace, Rahim goes on his toes to play his little dab shot down to third man but the ball bounces a bit extra to take the outside edge. Naseem Khushi makes no mistake and Bangladesh lose another wicket. |
18.2 : 18.2: Fayyaz Butt to Mohammad Saifuddin, OUT! Fayyaz Butt has two in two and Bangladesh are falling apart at the death. Once again it's a short delivery, slower in pace and around off, Mohammad Saifuddin steps back and tries to slap it through the line. But it takes the top half of his blade and flies down to Jatinder Singh at long off. He celebrates yet another catch by doing a thigh-five! Fayyaz Butt on a hat-trick... |
18.6 : 18.6: Fayyaz Butt to Mahmudullah, FOUR! That fumble from the keeper has cost his team a boundary in the end. Short and outside off, Mahmudullah camps back and steers it through the gap between short third man and backward point. 6 balls left, how many more can Bangladesh add to their total? |
19.3 : 19.3: Bilal Khan to Mahmudullah, OUT! STUMPS SHATTERED! Bilal Khan switches to 'round the wicket and spears in a very full ball around off at 129 kph, Mahmudullah stays back to swing his bat at it but fails to connect. The ball goes behind to peg the off stump back. Bilal has two in the match, can Oman get Bangladesh all out? |
19.6 : 19.6: Bilal Khan to Mustafizur Rahman, OUT! Bangladesh are all out on the final ball! Bilal Khan delivers it full and on middle, Mustafizur Rahman hops back to make room for a big shot but only manages to tower it high in the air towards mid off. Zeeshan Maqsood gets underneath it, keeps his eyes on the ball and takes the skier safely. Bangladesh have got 153 on the board. |
1.1 : 1.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Aqib Ilyas, OUT! LBW! Terrific delivery from Mustafizur Rahman, he lands it on a length around middle and off, and gets it to move back in a bit, Ilyas shows very little footwork as he attempts to flick it on the leg side. He misses and is rapped on the pads. They appeal and the finger has gone up. Aqib Ilyas is quick to take the DRS. The UltraEdge shows that there is some wood but it's after brushing the pads. The impact is in line and the Ball Tracker confirms that i |
0.2 : 0.2: Taskin Ahmed to Aqib Ilyas, FOUR! Shot! Full and on middle, angling down at 142 kph, Aqib Ilyas is quick to pick it off his pads and whips it over square leg for a boundary. |
1.5 : 1.5: Mustafizur Rahman to Kashyap Prajapati, SIX! Up and over! Full and around leg, Kashyap Prajapati connects one off his pads. He picks it up and smashes it over the backward square leg fielder. Mohammad Nadeem is stationed in the deep, he jumps but it goes over him for a biggie. |
3.2 : 3.2: Shakib Al Hasan to Jatinder Singh, FOUR! Risky. Tossed up, full and around off, Jatinder Singh reverse-sweeps it aerially and it goes just over the leaping point fielder. Mahedi Hasan tries his best but it goes over him and finds the fence. |
4.6 : 4.6: Mohammad Saifuddin to Kashyap Prajapati, FOUR! What a shot! Short in length and around off, Kashyap Prajapati does well to pump it over mid off for a boundary. |
5.3 : 5.3: Mustafizur Rahman to Kashyap Prajapati, SIX! Nailed! Slower one, short and around middle, Kashyap Prajapati swivels on the back foot and hammer-pulls it all the way over square leg for a biggie. |
5.4 : 5.4: Mustafizur Rahman to Kashyap Prajapati, OUT! Caught behind! Finally, the Bangladesh fans can smile. Mustafizur Rahman serves it on a length and wide outside off, Kashyap Prajapati tries to drive it through the line but edges it behind. Nurul Hasan, unlike his other teammates, makes no mistake as he catches the ball safely. Not much celebration from the bowler. |
6.2 : 6.2: Shakib Al Hasan to Jatinder Singh, FOUR! Shakib Al Hasan bowls this shorter and Jatinder Singh hangs back and pulls it powerfully towards mid-wicket for a boundary. |
6.3 : 6.3: Shakib Al Hasan to Jatinder Singh, SIX! Even better! Maximum! Fuller ball, Jatinder Singh skips down the track and lifts this over extra covers for a biggie. |
8.5 : 8.5: Taskin Ahmed to Jatinder Singh, FOUR! Taskin Ahmed gets too predictable and is punished this time! Short ball, around off, Jatinder Singh pulls it powerfully towards deep mid-wicket for a boundary. |
10.3 : 10.3: Taskin Ahmed to Zeeshan Maqsood, SIX! Ohhhhh! Magnificent. What a shot. A pacy delivery this time, around 144 clicks, a little too straight, Zeeshan Maqsood uses his wrists and powers this one over deep square leg. |
11.2 : 11.2: Mahedi Hasan to Zeeshan Maqsood, OUT! CAUGHT! What a great catch. Bangladesh have been off-colour with their fielding so far but this catch is top-notch. Mustafizur Rahman dropped one early on, but this time, he redeems himself. Fuller this time, slightly wider outside off, Zeeshan Maqsood gets on his one knee and looks for the big slog-sweep over the leg side, but he only hits it with the lower half of the blade. The ball balloons up in the air towards deep square leg. Rahman there, ru |
12.1 : 12.1: Shakib Al Hasan to Jatinder Singh, FOUR! That is very well played. Shakib Al Hasan serves this flatter and sliding down the leg side, Jatinder Singh gets low and powers this towards fine leg for a one-bounce boundary. |
12.6 : 12.6: Shakib Al Hasan to Jatinder Singh, OUT! CAUGHT! Another wicket falls and this is the big wicket of Jatinder Singh. It looked like a tough catch but Liton Das has made it look very easy. Oman are losing wickets quickly now and Bangladesh are bouncing back well. This is again bowled slightly fuller, but the line is around middle and leg, Singh gets low on one knee and smacks his sweep shot to the right of Das at deep square leg, who shuffles quickly to that side and holds onto this. 64 m |
15.3 : 15.3: Mohammad Saifuddin to Sandeep Goud, OUT! CAUGHT! Another one bites the dust. The catching has certainly improved for Bangladesh. Back of a length, outside off. The ball is moving away a bit. Sandeep Goud reaches out and slaps it straight to the man at extra cover. Mushfiqur Rahim is not the one to drop catches and he pouches it safely at the edge of the circle. Mohammad Saifuddin gets his first wicket and it is not looking good for Oman now. |
16.3: Shakib Al Hasan to Ayaan Khan, OUT! CAUGHT! This time the skipper, Mahmudullah does not drop the catch. Ayaan Khan's struggle comes to an end. Shakib Al Hasan gets his second wicket of the match. Full and outside off, Khan gets under it and lifts it towards long off. He was hoping to clear the fence but does not get the distance on it. Mahmudullah grabs the catch and asks his players to get back into the position and skip the celebration. |
16.4 : 16.4: Shakib Al Hasan to Naseem Khushi, OUT! CAUGHT! Mahmudullah takes back-to-back catches and Shakib Al Hasan strikes twice in two balls. Naseem Khushi has been sent back early. Shakib Al Hasan serves it full and outside off, Khushi lofts it in the air but without any timing towards long on. Mahmudullah is there who grabs the catch safely. A brilliant turnaround by Shakib Al Hasan. |
17.1 : 17.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Kaleemullah, FOUR! Slapped hard! Kaleemullah uses all his power on this shot. A length ball, around off. The ball moves away a shade. Kaleemullah gets behind it and slaps it hard past the bowler. The ball races away to the boundary at long off. |
17.4 : 17.4: Mustafizur Rahman to Kaleemullah, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Mustafizur Rahman continues to bowl outside off and it pays off this time. The cutter comes into play and gets an edge this time. On a length, outside off, moving away. Kaleemullah swings hard at it. The ball takes the outside edge and goes to the right of Nurul Hasan behind the stumps. He dives to that side and takes a stunner with one hand. Bangladesh have roared back in this game. |
17.6 : 17.6: Mustafizur Rahman to Fayyaz Butt, OUT! CAUGHT! Mustafizur Rahman gets his fourth wicket of the game. He is getting the job done at the death. Slightly short, around middle and off. Butt is left with not much room. He looks to pull it away but the ball takes the top edge and goes towards extra cover. Mushfiqur Rahim takes a good catch there. |
19.1 : 19.1: Mustafizur Rahman to Mohammad Nadeem, FOUR! Up and over! Fuller and on off, Nadeem stays back and lofts it over extra cover. Rahim there leaps but the ball goes over him and races away to the boundary. |
19.5 : 19.5: Mustafizur Rahman to Mohammad Nadeem, SIX! That's gone high, high enough to clear the man in the deep. Mustafizur Rahman bangs in a short ball, on the bodyline. Nadeem hooks it away over the deep backward square leg fence for a biggie. |
