    2.1 this is a full delivery that pitches on middle and leg and skids through to beat Mominul's bat as he plays all around it. No semblance of an inside edge, so the only way he could've been saved is if this missed the stumps. Ball tracking shows this would've crashed into the stumps. So he was dropped in the previous over, but that doesn't cost Comilla much. The bowling change after a lot of deliberation seems to have paid off. 20/1
    7.1 strikes first ball! It's the drift that does the trick. How many times have batsmen in the past made the mistake of playing him for the turn when there is none? That's the problem here too, the ball slides in and then beats the forward prod to trap him plumb in front. 53/4
    2.2 full, swinging in and he scythes through the defence of Soumya. What a magic ball this. Late inswing that has beaten the inside edge to sneak through the gap between bat and pad. Went for an expansive drive. Saifuddin is pumped up and he has every reason to be. 20/2
    6.5 what a riposte! Dream delivery for a left-arm spinner. Hafeez plays for the drift, expects this to skid through but this one turns to square him up, beats the outside edge and hits off stump. Magnificent. 53/3
    15.5 looks to sweep a full delivery, dead duck once he was struck on the pad. Too full for him to attempt that. Impact on leg, smashing leg. As far as decisions go, that is as straightforward as it gets. 93/8
    7.2 Boom Boom strikes again and he's on a hat-trick. No point reviewing that. Afridi brings out his trademark celebration. This is a flipper that fizzes through to hit him on the pad as he tries to play this all across the line off the backfoot. Looked to punch through midwicket but was in no position. Got into a tangle and once he was pinned on the pad, there was no way out. 53/5
    9 works this wide of midwicket, royal miscommunication with the second. Zakir didn't move, Fazle turned and just ran down for the second run without looking at his partner. He was so dead that he didn't even bother turning back. This is very poor from Zakir, who was caught ball-watching. 62/5
    9.2 steps out to hoick, misses and is bowled. Brain freeze of the highest order. This, I'm afraid, isn't the kind of batting show you expect from a professional cricket team. Oh, Qais Ahmed. What have you done? Playing as if your team is on 163 for 7. Terrible, terrible. 63/7
    18.5 attempts to mow this leg side but hits it off a thick inside edge to square leg. That's seven deliveries wasted. 124/10
    18.1 chips this straight to extra cover. Dolly of a catch, can Afridi do anything wrong today? 108/9

    10.5 how unlucky is the non-striker? This was absolutely drilled by Tamim, Udana put his left boot out to try and stop, but simply ended up deflecting it onto the stumps at the bowler's end with Anamul caught dumbfounded. He was barely two steps outside the crease, but it happened all too quickly. 87/2
    7.1 Lewis runs out of luck. gets a top-edge again in trying to clear the ropes. Excellent catch at deep square leg. Mominul was on the move, but he held his balance quite nicely. 65/1
    14 lofts this straight down the throat of long-off. No timing whatsoever. Was playing too many shots today, not sure if that really was the need of the hour. 101/3
    16.2 stone dead, oh Mustafizur, you beauty. This is very reminiscent of Jasprit Bumrah's magic slower ball to Shaun Marsh at the MCG. Excellent change of pace. Slower, yorker length and Imrul is completely deceived as he plays all around it. Hits him flush on the boot. Not sure why he wasted a review. 109/5
    16 looks for a suicidal single by hitting it to midwicket, was more than halfway down when he was sent back. Had no hope in hell of getting back. 109/3
