00:00And a little wrist work from Naeem and he's underway, and it's gone all the way, just
00:10shows you how quick the outfielder is once it gets out past the 30 metre circle, there's
00:14the first boundary for Bangladesh.
00:19That's suddenly the fielder, maybe got too excited.
00:28It was a top edge and it races away, last one there disappears, goes for 4, so 2 overs,
00:37Boulders 10 without loss.
00:48Little shimmy from Tamim, and that is exquisitely played here through extra cover for Tamim.
01:01Beautiful shot, gave himself room, obviously like we mentioned he's not turning the ball,
01:07left handed batsman, and that's a learning curve for these youngsters.
01:11That's a bit of length and it'll cost him.
01:16It was a bit of length, he's into the surface a bit more, but it's a genuine outside edge,
01:21no slips in T20, Fawzi.
01:24This is a pitch where you're not going to get extra bounce, there's no bounce, so that's
01:30hence the reason Boulders finish in the stumps.
01:33Oh, that sounded sweet, and is!
01:41First maximum, courtesy of Naeem, back over the bowler's head for 6.
01:47Like I said, this guy's very very talented, a treat to watch, he's on 18 of 13 Naeem,
01:52he's only young, and look at that shot against one of the...
01:55Flowing drive, that goes through, both openers looking in great touch, what a lovely cover
02:07drive that is.
02:12Elegant looking drive from Tamim Iqbal.
02:19Age does the job, it's fine enough to find the fence.
02:25That's the second time, batsmen have just guided it away towards the third man.
02:36Another short ball, and beautifully struck for 4.
02:41What a shot that is from Tamim Iqbal.
02:49Now they've got to get a move on, and that's exactly what they need to do.
02:53Slot sweep, for 4.
02:57You can add 2 to that, it's a 6.
03:07That's a good second run, has he made his ground?
03:12Wicked Keeper is happy chappy, they feel that they've got the batsmen run out.
03:18Struggling there, second run there was a bit of a yes and no,
03:21the communication is not really in order,
03:24to the spirit of the last moment, the leading side is cock-a-hoop,
03:29I think they feel they've got that man.
03:32He's gone upstairs, understandably, and have another look,
03:35Tamim Iqbal looking a little disconsolate, he's walking back,
03:39he's seen it all, he's seen the keeper collect and take off the bails,
03:45and he's caught well short, so unfortunately from a Bangladeshi context,
03:49they lose their first wicket.
03:56Sadly he's got to leave the field.
04:00It can be difficult to judge the contours of the ground,
04:02if you're playing a game after a gap of so many years,
04:06he's gone after scoring 39 of 34, 71.
04:09That's gone fine, away from the fielder in the deep, well struck for four.
04:18You can't afford to err in line, he's going to pounce on it,
04:22any opportunity he gets, as if deviated down the leg, all he had to do...
04:30That's gone up in the air, away from the fielder, for six.
04:35Beautifully managed through the offside, lazy elegance, personified,
04:38what a strike that is.
04:40It's brilliant, it's a delight to watch, so pleasing to the eye,
04:43didn't seem to hit it too hard, just the full back left.
04:51That's nicely played away, the Yorker length, worked away on the leg side,
04:55probably for a four, that's beautifully placed.
04:59Just a little tuck around, didn't have to do too much,
05:02it was Yorker length, but it was deviating down the leg side.
05:09Call is for two, Shadab, here's after the ball, second run taken.
05:14He's hit the stumps on the full, they're appealing, Shadab is hopeful,
05:19now we know that these direct hits can be lethal.
05:23They can be very interesting, he feels he's got his man,
05:26but did very well, Shadab, after bowling the delivery.
05:33Let's have a look at this, it's a brilliant effort,
05:36they're not getting the wickets with deliveries,
05:39but they seem to be getting them through run outs.
05:42Let's see what transpires, where's the ball?
05:44I think it's gone.
05:45That's excellent, oh, Shadab had to run such a long way,
05:49cover, recover and throw it back.
05:53Brilliant, brilliant piece of work.
05:55Outstanding stuff from Shadab,
05:58showing desperation and discipline,
06:00hitting the stumps on the full, they're waiting for the four.
06:05It'll be shown as out, Lytton Das has been...
06:14Catch it!
06:15Big shot, catch it is the call, it's not been middled,
06:18will it be middled by the fielder, easily taken at long on.
06:23Shadab is having a brilliant time of it.
06:27Breathtaking stuff in the field, running up Lytton Das
06:30and then the left-hander wanting to find the middle of the bat,
06:33just couldn't handle it.
06:35Well, the intentions were pretty clear,
06:36I think the signals come and the captain coming in
06:39has told Naeem to get a move on and try to get down the wicket,
06:43got the toe end of the bat and it's Picard taking a...
06:52Change of pace, oh, lovely.
06:56Got enough of this that the skipper needs to,
06:59wants to get a wriggle on.
07:01Thoughtful variation, but time and a place.
07:03New batsmen in, but you weren't good to...
07:07Guard, first wicket, full delivery,
07:10that's what he's good at, Aris Rauf.
07:15Got his first international wicket for his country.
07:20Full delivery, pace and direction.
07:26Yeah, very jubilant, Aris Rauf.
07:30The green machine.
07:33Yeah, you miss, I hit.
07:36Certainly bang on there.
07:44Got a great delivery down left side,
07:46Feinluck is up in the circle.
07:48He's not happy with himself.
07:52Much needed boundary for Bangladesh.
08:01Oh, there you go, change of pace.
08:03There's the salute and the characteristic celebration of Shaheen.
08:11Right on target again.
08:14Another important wicket at this stage of the game.
08:18Soumya, departs for seven,
08:20good slow ball from Shaheen Shah Afridi.
08:24A very well disguised back of a hand,
08:27a leg cutter, but good variation.
08:37Let's have a look at the front foot,
08:39behind the line, it's okay, everything is fine.
08:43Shaheen, Shaheen, Shaheen.
08:56Oh, that's a nice stroke.
09:00Skipper gives a bit of glove love to Ahmed Mitton.
09:07What a shot, no effort whatsoever, sheer timing.
09:10There was a fielder there for that shot,
09:12obviously he wasn't straight.
09:15Oh, big slice, that's away with it.
09:17Yeah, it'll go all the way.
09:19Couple of bounces to third man.
09:22Important boundary for Bangladesh, 140 now.
09:26Third man was up in the circle.
09:29Slightly wide, hence the top edge.
09:31Slow ball, the off-cutter,
09:33got the top edge, couple of bounces into the fence.
09:40Cruel old game, T20 for the quick man at times.
09:48Oh, there is, big shout here, given!
09:51Little tickle.
09:53Hassan Raza, the umpire, he agrees.
09:56If you don't think you've hit it, Skip,
09:58yeah, come upstairs.
10:00And he has, you should know straight away,
10:02surely, if you've nicked this one.
10:06One more time, please.
10:10Yes, there is clear spike on ultra-edge.
10:24Hassan, stay with your decision, out.
10:27Stay with your decision, out.
10:29You are on screen, stay with your decision, out.
10:32Stay with your decision, out.
10:34Yeah, confirmation.
10:36A little feather, because ultra-edge said there was
10:40a little spike and a little noise.
10:48Oh, talk about timing!
10:51Hafeez, if you please!
10:56Tremendous shot by Mohammad Hafeez.
10:59No effort.
11:03Delightful.
11:05Just underlines how slick this outfield is here.
11:10You see, it's a very odd field setting.
11:13He's got slip in place, he's got point fielder
11:16towards short third man.
11:18Deep square leg now in front.
11:22No, that'll race away to four.
11:24Not a great line from the Fizz.
11:28Great delivery either from Augusta Fizzer.
11:31Another boundary for Hafeez.
11:33He's looking good.
11:35So far, 12 of 7.
11:45He's off the mark.
11:47Hassan Ali with the bang.
11:51Boom, boom!
11:54Naughty, naughty, naughty.
11:58Again.
12:00Line and length struggling.
12:02And from the Fizz.
12:04Off from Hassan Ali.
12:05That was the second boundary.
12:09Once again, it was so unlike Mr Fazer Rahman.
12:13Back-to-back boundaries, because he's too much on leg stick.
12:17Poor bowling.
12:19The field is set for offside,
12:22and then you're bowling.
12:27No, a leading edge.
12:28Oh, it's as simple as that!
12:30Hafeez has got a go.
12:33Second one falls inside the power play.
12:39Look how quiet it's got here at Qaddafi.
12:43He's one of the home side top order.
12:47He's got a start and got out.
12:52Beautifully placed.
12:54That's a lovely cover drive from Schweppe.
13:02That's gone fine for runs.
13:04Will it find the fence?
13:06The outfield is extremely fast.
13:13Four runs.
13:16Breaks the momentum.
13:19And it's up in the air.
13:21How far is that going?
13:22Oh, just beyond the fielder.
13:24It was in the air.
13:25The batsman must have had his heart in his mouth for a while.
13:28It's eventually resulted in a foul.
13:31Attack up in the air.
13:33Now there's an opportunity here.
13:35Is someone going to get to it?
13:37This is taken by Shonto.
13:39That's the wicket they wanted.
13:41And that's what Aminul was looking to get.
13:46Oh, fine and four.
13:50Can't go the line with a man in the ring on the left side.
13:57That's where this ball is good.
14:00Schweppe Malik inside out.
14:02Saw the fielder.
14:03Midorf is up in the circle.
14:05A charge.
14:09Oh, big neck.
14:10Yeah, celebration.
14:12Hardly had to really look back because
14:15the batter was walking.
14:17Nifteka goes.
14:18Good healthy edge.
14:21Oh, he's not walking off, but I thought he was.
14:23Just wondering about maybe the gather.
14:26Going to come upstairs.
14:32Yes, yes.
14:33Go for the field.
14:35Yes, it's clear.
14:36It's clear.
14:37It's clear to me.
14:38My decision is out.
14:40My decision is out.
14:42Absolutely.
14:43Big neck.
14:45See you.
14:46See you later.
14:47Nifteka Ahmed is out for 16.
14:51Again into that big stump.
14:54Disgust from the fielders inside the ring with that first one.
15:03Straight head.
15:04Up in the air.
15:05There's a fielder.
15:06Oh, good effort.
15:08But in the end, all in vain.
15:11And that brings up Shoaib Malik's eighth T2050.
15:20Oh, it didn't bounce.
15:22He's a little unlucky here.
15:24Ahmad Wasimini looks back down the pitch in disgust,
15:27but has to go because he's been castled.
15:32And it was a slow ball as well.
15:34Very well disguised.
15:35Back of the hand slow ball.
15:37Beautifully bowled.
15:39Ahmad.
15:41Decides to give it a heave.
15:43Down the throat.
15:45Oh, it's been shelled.
15:48Mitton.
15:51What's happening, Denny?
15:54Made a silly shot.
15:56Dropped a catch.
15:57And then Pakistan won the game.
15:59Unbelievable.
16:00This is what this T20 is all about, isn't it, Denny?
16:04Drama.
16:05Action.
16:06And the finish.
