- BATSMENRB4s6sSR8.5 lovely bowling from Bopara. Ronchi's blitz ends on 78. Another full slower ball, deceives Ronchi for pace, who is through his lofted drive too early, the ball only lobs in the air for long-on. Skewed, the bat handle turning in his hands. Sensational bowling 99/24.4 a slower ball down leg, Sarkar charges at the bowler again, but is deceived by the lack of pace, Sarkar is through his heave a tad early, the ball takes the leading edge, and lobs towards mid-off 59/110.2 bowled 'im. Another slower delivery, 106 kph from Bopara, out the back of the hand. The ball keeps drifting in, but Munaweera plays all around it. Misses a cut and the ball finds a big gap between bat and pad to knock into off stump 113/315.2 and taken on the boundary. Reece falls for 10 off 16! After all that, he has holed out. Full outside off, Reece pummels a slog sweep but picks out deep midwicket. Not a good innings at all 132/4Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL166/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.3)Fall of wickets: 1-59 (Soumya Sarkar, 4.4 ov), 2-99 (Luke Ronchi, 8.5 ov), 3-113 (Dilshan Munaweera, 10.2 ov), 4-132 (Luis Reece, 15.2 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.3 lbw! It's a premeditated sweep from Charles, to a ball that is pretty much on middle stump. He hasn't gone far forward, essentially trying to swipe the ball, hoping to make contact. Doesn't. Gets struck on the back thigh. Bye-bye. Oh, hold on, Hawk-Eye projects the ball to be going over middle and off stump 2/11.4 goes for the big one again, but this time he hasn't got the requisite height. Caught at long-on. It all begins with a short ball, which bounces a touch too high to be hitting down the ground. Ziaur muscles it anyway, but finds Hayder who almost over-runs the ball before taking it reverse-cup 20/26 loses patience and is caught behind. Reece is bowling so very slowly. It's almost like he's daring the batsmen to come at him. And Mithun does, haring out of his crease like he's heard there's pizza for dinner. Swings wildly. Swings too soon. And nicks pretty much a left-arm othodox's delivery to the wicketkeeper 56/313 huge appeal for a run-out at the non-strikers' end. Taskin is absolutely certain. He bowls a full delivery again, looking to break the stumps, but Thisara brings out a meaty drive but Taskin will not be denied. He wants to wreck a set of stumps so he sticks out his right leg in his followthrogh. The ball ricochets off it and catches Bopara, the set batsman, out of his ground at the non-strikers' end 105/512.4 knocks over middle stump with a peach of a yorker. Nafees really isn't ready for it. He's so slow in bringing the bat down, and upon realising the danger he is in, his swing goes across the line and he makes things worse for himself. Outstanding bowling from the Bangladeshi fast bowler 105/412.5 two in two! He went an entire tour of South Africa without a single wicket and now he's having batsmen flick length balls straight into fielder's hands. Shenwari finds short midwicket and Rangpur start to wobble. Taskin on a hat-trick 105/515 caught at deep midwicket as Thisara mishits a pull shot. Clears his front leg to get power into the stroke, but he underestimates the bounce Taskin is getting. The ball climbs on him, goes off the shoulder of the bat and settles in Hayder's hands 119/717.2 skews the ball straight up and cover moves to his right to claim the catch. Mashrafe looks to power a length ball over the leg side. But because of Reece's lack of pace, it goes off the outside half of the bat and comes down to settle in Misbah's hands 134/8Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL155/8 (20 Overs, RR: 7.75)Did not bat: Nazmul IslamFall of wickets: 1-2 (Johnson Charles, 0.3 ov), 2-20 (Ziaur Rahman, 1.4 ov), 3-56 (Mohammad Mithun, 5.6 ov), 4-105 (Shahriar Nafees, 12.4 ov), 5-105 (Samiullah Shinwari, 12.5 ov), 6-105 (Ravi Bopara, 12.6 ov), 7-119 (Thisara Perera, 14.6 ov), 8-134 (Mashrafe Mortaza, 17.2 ov)
