    15.2 LBW given, Bangladesh review. No shot offered to a length ball pitching just outside off. Looked to have spun away just a bit which might work for Shanto but it only needs to clip. Just clipping it is! A cheer from the Indians as Shanto leaves. It hit him just below the knee roll, straightened a bit but Hawk-Eye predicted that it would go on to kiss the outer-half of the off stump. Shanto whacks his pad on his way back. India back in the contest now. 39/2
    14.5 Extra bounce does it, caught in the cordon and Unadkat celebrates! Slightly back of length ball just outside off, Zakir was shaping to cut but the ball came in and got big on him. His hands were slowing down and he was midway through the shot as the ball sped in, took the gloves and ballooned up to Rahul at fourth slip. 39/1
    73.3 Appeal for caught behind, given. Mominul walks. A weird dismissal as the ball brushed the glove as Mominul looked to leave the ball after reaching out for the flashy drive. It was a length ball that was given ample air. Ashwin pulling his length back ensured Mominul didn't go after chasing it. He decided to leave, but was a bit too late at the end. The gloves were just outside the line of the stumps, the carrom ball came in and just took the glove on the way. 227/9
    28.1 wait, what?! A length ball around off, and Shakib looks to go over mid-off. Fails to get his timing right and it just lobs towards Pujara who takes it reverse cups 82/3
    40.6 Nick and gone! Unadkat bowls it on a length, brings it in with the angle. Pitches around off, may have straightened just a bit. Rahim was on the back foot, he tried to defend it with a slightly open-faced bat. It squared him up, took an edge, Pant moved to his right and took the catch. Unadkat's delighted to have his second, India into the middle order now. 130/4
    48.5 Soft dismissal as Litton chips it to midwicket. Ashwin tosses it up on a full length at the stumps, Litton flicked it and got it in the air. Popped to Rahul, who was close enough to catch that at a comfortable height. A good innings and partnership comes to an end. 172/5
    66.3 length outside off, a loose shot from Mehidy. Goes for the cut but it's too close to the body. Gets an outside edge and Pant does the rest 213/6
    68.4 138kph, a loud appeal for lbw but not given. India want to review it, their last for this innings. A length ball outside off that reverse-swung back to beat the inside edge on the front-foot defence and hit the batter near the knee roll. The ball-tracking shows the ball would have gone on to hit the middle stump 219/7
    72.4 Driven in the air, taken by Siraj at point! Pitched up around off, Taskin lunged down and went for the full-blooded drive. Sliced it to Siraj who juggled it a couple of times, once intentionally for style points, and took it. Umesh has four. 223/8

    13.1 83kph. Down the wicket and looks to defend as he is not to the pitch of the ball. A loud appeal for lbw, almost pleading. Not given. Bangladesh have taken the review. The bat was next to the pad but it's clear the ball first hit the pad. It pitched around off and angled in to hit Rahul in front of middle. The ball-tracking shows it would have hit middle and leg, and Rahul walks back 27/1
    15.1 Taijul strikes again. A length ball on middle and leg. Gill goes for the sweep but misses. An appeal for lbw and the umpire doesn't hesitate in raising his finger. Gill doesn't even discuss with Pujara if he should review it, and starts walking back 38/2
    30.4 Bat-pad catch taken, Bangladeshi fielders and fans are celebrating. Pujara is holding his ground. Umpires converge and send it upstairs. Soft signal is out.. It's a fullish ball that hit a thin inside edge of the full-faced bat. Mominul, the fielder at short leg, took it low, third umpire says fingers underneath the ball after checking it from a couple of angles and the zoomed-in image. He goes frame-by-frame once more. He is convinced that the fingers are underneath and out it is! The fielders look at the big screen are chuffed, a big cheer erupts from the crowd. 72/3
    37.4 edged and taken. A length ball in the channel. Kohli pokes at it, gets an outside edge and a regulation catch for Nurul. A big wicket for Bangladesh 94/4
    67.5 dismissed in the 90s! It was slightly fuller than good length, outside off. Pant goes back and pushes at it. Gets an outside edge and Nurul makes no mistake. Could have played forward. It's Pant's sixth dismissal in the 90s, to go with five hundreds 253/5
    72.4 An appeal for lbw and given. Keeps quite low, almost parallel to the ground. Was a length ball around off. Iyer went for the sweep but the ball went under the bat. He wants to review it but it looks so out. The ball hit him in front of off stump and would have gone on to hit off and middle 271/7
    70.3 full around off and Axar goes aerial. But he doesn't have the required power to clear the boundary rider. Shanto grabs it and balances himself to stay just inside the boundary line, despite taking a couple of steps back. The last step was very close to the boundary cushion, so the third umpire is taking his time. And the big screen displays out 264/6
    80.1 LBW given, Ashwin reviews It's a length ball that is pitching in line, impact is in line. Wicket is umpire's call. Ashwin has to go. Ashwin looked to play it straight but got beaten on the inside edge and the ball hit pad, just under the knee-roll. 286/8

    83.3 Wild slog attempted, there's a thin outside edge and it's taken at slip. It pitched around off and spun away sharply. Umesh lunged down and went to swipe it across. Ball went away slowly, took the edge (looked like the bottom edge at first) and ballooned to Litton who reverse cupped it comfortably. 305/9
    86.3 Down the track, slogs and misses. Nurul dislodges the bails before Siraj could get in. The batter yells in frustration, he's very disappointed walking back. It was a length ball that spun away. Siraj danced down and wanted to slap it either straight or over extra. Was flighted generously, done by the spin too. 314/10

    7.6 A bigger LBW appeal, it's given. Batters discuss and take the review on the last second! It was a length ball that pitched around off, Shanto looked to defend it with a close-faced bat (arc going around from slip to mid-on). No edge, Hawk-Eye shows three reds. Ashwin is congratulated by team-mates as the batter walks back. The ball skidded off the pitch, looked to have come in with the angle, Shanto was on the back foot and got pinned. 13/1
    42.4 Zakir slashes it in the air, carries to Siraj at deep third! It was short and wide, Zakir went after it with a hard cut but couldn't keep it on the ground. Siraj lunges forward to take it. Zakir is disappointed, Umesh is delighted. 102/5
    12.5 Appeal for caught behind, Pant's is regulation, Siraj and Kohli are celebrating. And Mominul walks! It was a length ball in the channel. Mominul was on the move, looking to come forward maybe to negate movement, maybe he was predicting Siraj to pull back his length after the last ball. He got squared up, looked to defend it. Ended up kinda fending it even though the bat was relatively straight. Thin nick, taken by the keeper. 26/2
    24.4 a soft, soft dismissal. Was a length ball from Unadkat. Shakib comes forward and pushes at it with hard hands. The ball comes a touch slower of the surface and hits him high on the bat. As a result, it just goes straight towards extra cover where Gill accepts the dolly 51/3
    31.1 given lbw. Rahim is still in his crease, perhaps checking where it hit him exactly. And then opts for the review. It was a length ball that came in sharply with the angle to hit him on the pads as he looked to defend from the back foot. The umpire showed no hesitation in raising his finger. No bat involved, the ball beat the inside edge and would have gone on to hit the leg stump 70/4
    66.1 Nip-backer castles Litton! Length ball pitched just outside off, snaked back in. Went past the defences of Litton who looked to push it straight but the seam movement was high enough to find the gate and give the bails a flight. Siraj is pumped, Litton is surprised. Has to leave for a well-made 73. On replay, it looks like Litton didn't pick the seam movement and was done by the ball zipping in. His bottom hand came off as he tried to push it on the last second. 219/8
    45.3 LBW given, Mehidy discusses with Litton and decides not to review. Typical Axar dismissal as Mehidy looks to sweep the fullish ball across the line. Sanjay Manjrekar noted on air that there was no fielder protecting the sweep, and they were inviting Mehidy to go for the shot which he did and couldn't connect. 113/6
    53.3 stumped! A length ball outside off, Nurul was drawn out of his crease and looks to push at it as he isn't to the pitch of the ball. Gets beaten by the turn and Pant breaks the stumps to find Nurul well outside his crease 159/7

    67.1 Given out LBW, reviewed quickly by Taijul. Taijul looked to push the ball straight, beat the inside edge and hit him high on the knee roll of the front pad. It was a length ball that was pitching on off (in line), impact is in line. It's clipping leg stump. Taijul has to depart. 220/9
    70.2 Run-out chance as the batters look to pinch a single to midwicket. Gill runs in and underarms the throw to Axar, it's high. So Axar has to get his hand low to break the stumps with the ball. Sent upstairs. Does he have the ball is the question. Third umpire will have more replays and the split-screen view. He tried to take it with two hands but got it with one and the ball made contact with the stumps with Khaled a bit short. Gill ran from short leg towards the short-midwicket region. Khaled looked to have bent too early, the bat landed and kinda stuck in the pitch for a second or so. He couldn't carry with the momentum and fell short. 231/10

    13.2 Down the track, ball beats Gill. Nurul whips off the bails. India are three down! It was on a length outside off, Gill was well down and looked to play for the spin. Tried to push it with an open face. Missed it. Nurul kind of reverse upper-cut (lower cut?) the ball into the stumps. He charges in celebration, so does Mehidy! 29/3
    2.1 Away spin gets the outside edge. Excellent catch by Nurul! Shakib roars and twirls in celebration as Rahul walks back. Was a fullish ball that pitched around off and turned away. Rahul took a stride towards the line, reached out and looked to push it with an open-faced bat. As Sidharth Monga notes, it was a thick deflection, Nurul's hands moved to the right swiftly and led to the smart catch being taken 3/1
    7.1 Stumping chance taken upstairs. Not sure whether Nurul collected this properly. The ball was around a length outside off, Pujara came down the pitch and looked to block it straight. It took a thin-inside edge, replays show. Went on the bounce to Nurul, he's donw well to collect it and Pujara looks to come back. Looks like Pujara is one frame away from making the ground. Yes, he's short. Nurul wasn't sure after appealing, he went back to set up the stumps. But as the replays came, he ran and leapt in the air in delight. Shakib was thrilled. So is the crowd. 12/2
    29.3 Grubber hits the pad and goes onto the stumps to give Mehidy a five-for. On a length from around the wicket angles in just down leg, Axar goes on the back foot and tries to flick it across the line. Misses, it deflects off the pad to the wicket. Mehidy, along with Bangladesh's fielders, are thrilled! 74 for 7. 74/7
    19.5 Inside edge, taken at short leg! Bangladesh's fielders are partying! The crowd is thrilled Kohli has a word with Shakib, looked like it was regarding one of the players saying something. The ball was fullish around off, Kohli leant forward, towards the line of the ball and looked to defend it towards cover. It took the edge and went low in front of short leg, Mominul took a sharp catch. "Typical kohli dismissal to offspin" says Sidharth Monga. Bangladesh have the upper hand under lights in Mirpur! 37/4
    24.4 Shakib has struck, Bangladesh have the first breakthrough and Unadkat reviews it! Beaten by pace, Unadkat was struck on the back foot right in front, if it was bat first, he would have reviewed immediately, but he came down for a chat with Axar to review reluctantly. Coming in with the arm from off stump, Unadkat is hit on the pad flap right in front of the stumps, it's plumb as anything you'll ever see, and back tracking confirms he's out 56/5
    27.6 Mehidy has him on the back foot, the finger has gone up, Pant looks back in disbelief, goes down to consult Axar and decides not to review! Flat delivery came in with the arm, not much bounce, Pant is cemented on the back foot and is struck right in front of off to spark off deafening appeals and the umpire calls it out. Looked plump so Pant decides not to waste a review 71/6
