    0.1 A run out first ball! Oh, my word, what stunning fielding from Saqlain and Bangladesh A have conjured a wicket out of nowhere. A gently short of a good length ball on off stump, he pushes towards mid-on and sets off. But Saqlain was quick off the blocks, bends down low and under-arms a direct throw at the non-striker's end. Yasir is not even in the frame! 0/1
    7 The bowler has the last laugh and the in-form Sadaqat departs. Floated outside off, he looks for a expansive drive, gets a thick inside-edge and ends up chopping this back onto the stumps. Jishan Alam is ecstatic and lets Sadaqat know 49/4
    1.1 A wicket first ball of the opening over; a wicket first ball of the second. What's happening?! Pushed quicker on off stump, going straight through. Faiq opens up a touch and looks to go up and over the offside. He misses and sees his stumps rattled. Pakistan A are 2 for 2 after seven balls! 2/2
    4.1 What's with Bangladesh A and first ball wickets today! He pushes this quicker on a length on off stump, Ghazi plays for the turn, but there is none whatsoever. He ends up playing down the wrong line and sees his off stump pegged back 25/3
    10.4 Beaten all ends up and Minhas' sprightly knock comes to an end! Slower short of a length delivery on off and middle stump, was the offcutter. The ball keeps a little low, breaching Minhas' defence and rattling his stumps. "Suiiii" goes Saqlain. 64/5
    14.2 Huuge appeal for lbw and the umpire's finger is up in a jiffy. Irfan's misery ends on 9 off 22! Flatter on off stump, he looks to go across the line, misses and is trapped bang in front of the stumps. That would have gone onto hit the stumps. Pakistan A are struggling! 75/6
    18.4 Cleans him up with a ripper. Full, inswinging yorker on off stump, Masood misses, Mondol doesn't and Pakistan A have lost their eighth. The set batter departs and my mind still goes back to the last ball of the previous over. That should have been an easy run and now Pakistan A have lost two set batters in three balls. 118/8
    18.2 Huge appeal for lbw and given. Aziz departs and Bangladesh A have another. Pinpoint yorker on middle stump, he goes for a cheeky lap sweep by shuffling to the offside. He misses and the ball would have crashed into middle stump. An easy decision for the umpire. 116/7
    20 A run out to end the innings and Pakistan A have been bowled out for 125! Slower back of a length ball on off, he misses with the ball rolling to Akbar who fires a direct under-arm throw with Daniyal nowhere in the scene 125/9
    18.5 Oof, Ripon Mondol take a bowl! Pinpoint yorker on middle stump and Ubaid couldn't do anything about that. A hint of reverse sweep tailing back into Ubaid. He misses and sees his middle pole pegged back. Ripon celebrates and why not! 118/9

    4 Dragged down and Masood the last laugh. A nothing delivery really, and Habibur has mistimed that to square leg. Rank long hop, he pulls this with no power at all for a simple catch to Ubaid 36/2
    2.3 Minhas takes three balls to strike. Flatter length ball on middle stump, he is trapped on the crease and struck in front. That would have missed off, missed leg and the hit middle stump 22/1
    4.2 What's happening! A third wicket in three overs and Bangladesh are now in deep trouble. Flatter on middle stump, he goes for a needless reverse and misses. That would have crashed into middle stump. 36/3
    8 What's happening?! Yasir falls now and Bangladesh A are in disarray! Tossed up outside off, he jumps down the track looking to inside out over covers. He doesn't reach the pitch of the ball and hence does not get the elevation. Ends up hitting it straight to Irfan at extra cover 48/5
    7 Muqeem strikes in his first over and Pakistan A are all over Bangladesh A! Very quick, skiddy delivery outside off. Akbar stays back and just pushes at it feebly. He gets a thick inside-edge and sees his stumps in a mess. 44/4
    15.3 Short ball and he pulls straight to deep backward square leg. Banged in short cramping Meherob for room. He pulls but does not get enough power and Yasir does the rest 90/8
    10.1 Cleaned up! Muqeem is all over Bangladesh A. Lovely, tossed up wrong'un that lands on off and gets it to spin back sharply into the batter. He does not read it at all, goes for a drive and is beaten all ends up. The bat went somewhere, the foot somewhere and the stumps were rattled 53/6
    10.3 Another wrong'un, another batter not reading it, another time the stumps are rattled. Tossed up googly on off stump, he goes for a drive and the ball sneaks in between bat and pad and Bangladesh are now 53 for 7! Mrittunjoy Chowdhury comes, Mrittunjoy Chowdhury goes 53/7
    17.2 Big, big, appeal and he finally gets his man with the umpire taking his time. Length ball attacking the stumps. Rakibul misses and is hit in front. That was crashing into the stumps, no doubt about it. Bangladesh A nine down and on the brink. 96/9
