- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.6 there's the first wicket! Khakurel slogged at one that wasn't short enough to play across the line to, he got a top edge that was taken comfortably by Razzak at mid off. The bat turned in Khakurel's hand as he made contact with the bottom part of it. 19/16.1 that's the end of Pun, he's spooned the ball straight to short cover. Al-Amin Hossain changed ends and has done the job for Bangladesh. He pitched on a good length around off and Pun drove away from his body without proper footwork 38/26.3 Malla's gone now! Lbw! Two in three balls. Al-Amin Hossain pitched fuller and straighter, getting the ball to nip into the right-hander. Malla was half forward and looking to play across the line when the ball smashed into his front pad. That looked pretty adjacent, as long as there was no inside edge. Umpire Tucker had no doubt. He was right. 39/318.6 bowled him! Khadka moved across his stumps to trying and chip over the fielder at short fine leg. The length was too full for it, the line was too straight for it. Leg stump took a beating 124/419.6 well, they have attempted the leg bye this time and Mushfiqur has scored a direct hit to catch Vesawkar short. Bhandari slogged in vain again and failed to connect. 126/5Extras12 (lb 3, w 9)TOTAL126/5 (20 Overs, RR: 6.3)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Subash Khakurel, 3.6 ov), 2-38 (Sagar Pun, 6.1 ov), 3-39 (Gyanendra Malla, 6.3 ov), 4-124 (Paras Khadka, 18.6 ov), 5-126 (Sharad Vesawkar, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.5 caught at short third man! Tamim charged again and slogged, aiming for the stands. He wasn't to the pitch of the ball, not by a long way, and the ball lobbed into Sagar Pun's hands off the outside edge 63/110.2 there's a run out! The fielder at point does superbly. Anamul had cut the ball hard towards point, where the man dived to his right and brought down the ball. He recovered quickly and threw to the keeper's end. Anamul had sprinted for the single right away but his partner did not respond. Both batsmen were virtually level at the bowler's end of the pitch when the bails were broken by the keeper, and it is Anamul who has to go 79/2Extras2 (lb 2)TOTAL132/2 (15.3 Overs, RR: 8.51)Fall of wickets: 1-63 (Tamim Iqbal, 7.5 ov), 2-79 (Anamul Haque, 10.2 ov)
