- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.3 super catch this time by ZIA! He tried one of these the other day too, but he doesn't miss it this time.. Kamran gets a big top edge again as he looks to sweep - that bounced a touch extra. Zia does very well, he back pedals at short fine leg, keeps his eyes on the ball and stretches at the last moment.. Takes a tumble after that.. a very good catch 43/18.5 he is been done in by the flight here! Comes down the pitch like he has been doing all day, but this one is much shorter from Razzak, it grips the surface and turns past the outside edge. Hafeez doesn't even bother to see the damage behind him. 70/29.2 another one goes! Umar Akmal, the hero from the other night, he gets a thick outside edge and Tamim takes a dipping catch at short third man.. The days is just getting better for Bangladesh 71/317.4 this time he has done it! This is the repeat of what happened two balls ago, but this time Malik misses it and is stumped! He moved way too early and Shakib fired it wide outside off 154/419.4 length delivery, again he doesn't get full hold of this, flat-bats it straight to long-on. No no-ball this time 188/5Extras13 (b 3, nb 1, w 9)TOTAL190/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.5)Fall of wickets: 1-43 (Kamran Akmal, 4.3 ov), 2-70 (Mohammad Hafeez, 8.5 ov), 3-71 (Umar Akmal, 9.2 ov), 4-154 (Shoaib Malik, 17.4 ov), 5-188 (Shahid Afridi, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 game over! Umar Gul runs all the way to Tamim to let him know he got him proper.. Tamim was down the pitch again, making room along the way, but the bowler fired a quick delivery on to his body, which the batsman chopped on to the stumps.. 30/15.4 Anamul has been worked out by Ajmal! Lots of air on this one and Anamul is early on his drive, lobs a simple chance for the bowler.. 36/214.6 Umar Akmal doesn't give Shakib the chance! The batsman didn't have an option really -- he looks to whack this short delivery through off side.. but it gets too big on him and he just manages to get a thick top edge that Akmal pouches easily at point 91/58.1 he gets wicket first ball! It's a typical Lala delivery, quick at 99 kph, skids along and the batsman, looking for a cut, can only edge it to the keeper 44/39.1 the finger of death sends the Bangladesh captain back! He didn't have much of a chance as he played outside the line of this arm-ball, that was hitting middle 47/416.6 and that is all there is to it! Fuller, quicker, and straighter.. The bowler fires it in as he sees Nasir come down the pitch.. That beats the bat and Kamran does the rest.. 112/617.4 another short ball! This one fizzes past the top edge. Kamran appeal for a catch and the umpires raises the finger. the silence in the crowd gives you no hint of a wicket falling ...

'Two bad overs cost us the match' - Mushfiqur
Losing by 50 runs in T20, according to Bangladesh captain Mushfiqur Rahim, is like losing by 100 or 150 in ODIs, but the margin might have been a lot closer if not for two expensive overs
