00:00Right it's Pakistan who won the toss and have elected to bowl on a greenish pitch
00:05well we're all set to go here for the first test first day's play coming up
00:12let's play with Dutch Bangalore Bank
00:18straightway little drift down the left side little clip away easy pickings to
00:22start off proceedings for Bangladesh just a little wayward in line and with
00:28utmost ease he flicks it away for the first Nexus pay-for again he's drifting
00:35down leg again it's a tickle around the corner it's a little tardy from the
00:40experience I'm Jeffery D off the pads but nevertheless it's gone for four runs
00:47straight up Wow what a Jaffa that is
00:54he's off the mark a couple of runs played it nicely this this awkward bounce
01:01again from Mohamed Abbas but straight just right behind it still a tad uncomfortable
01:09in negotiating that ball oh another one just evades the bat very tentative in
01:19playing that shot to read the pitch properly on the pads again well cut by
01:24the keeper stifle appeal from shine Shafridi gets no response from Rizwan
01:32that's but delectably just a tad overpeached and he was into that shot got it in the
01:38meaty part got it in the gap and got it to the boundary save a single or
01:42something now once again beats in beautiful delivery late out swinger from
01:47a bus it's again the shoulder pops out squares him on up again 14 without a
01:56wicket oh and he's dropped it goodness the chance created by shine Shafridi
02:06I think just between the two fielders and that should have been taken catchable
02:12height yeah it's a debutant mahmood al-hasan nice shape away towards the slip
02:17Corden gets an edge and well I think he was distracted by the second slip fielder
02:22Salman Aliaga normally is a great catcher didn't really go hard at that one
02:27this should have been taken irrespective whether there was a distraction or not
02:32the batsman should have been extracted there you see him aborting the idea of
02:37catching it and he would that is too good it's so straight deflects off the
02:46ricochets off the wickets at the other end more than a slip in position in white
02:50ball cricket and that only not for a long time so you're absolutely right and that
02:55even the practice is not there
03:01again just inducing that it's not a voluntary shot but it's going to get him four runs and
03:07rather streaky but he'll take it Nexus pay for I think Rizwan has got to adjust and with him the
03:16slip cotton has to adjust as well that's not the first time that the ball has arrived at him on
03:21the
03:22bounce 18 without a wicket
03:56oh dear mom there's one not looking very comfortable though there's a smile on his face that awkward
04:01bounce in the last one of the previous so maybe got him possibly in the unprotected part of the glove
04:12it's an awkward one for any keeper and so you got to adjust a bus is going to be more
04:18times like that
04:20late swing to make your effort just a little bit more taxing behind the stumps
04:29and straight away after the break we talked about the batters losing their concentration
04:35he went through half-hearted push and despite that injury it was an easy take behind the wicket and
04:43Pakistan strike as a soft dismissal really a nothing shot once again playing from the crease
04:51the length was great and shaping it away from right-handers off stem this time the ball carried to
04:57Rizwan and that little bit of a pause did help Pakistan to break through
05:04mehmood al-hasan joy could only get eight and it's 18 for one
05:13oh that's gone through and so Rizwan is not having a great time behind the stumps once again a bad
05:18bounce
05:18it's got to adjust yeah four runs Bangladesh will take it it just see from that length the ball dying
05:25once again over the 130 clicks so the pitch maybe not having that pace that we expected initially
05:35nicely pulled sees the opportunity not enough timing though teaser for the fielder but still reaches to
05:44the fence this will give him a lot of confidence to shut man and slightly deviating on the leg side
05:55easy pickings
05:57for shut man oh outstanding delivery to finish the over 29 for one
06:10oh gone what a start what a start from Hassan Ali squared shut man and he's taking that long walk
06:22back
06:25where was he hiding mentioned in the last or whether it was time for introduction of Hassan Ali and this
06:31is
06:31what he does with the very first delivery that's a very good catch was dying in front
06:38I know what a brilliant start this is from Hassan Ali shot man departs the parts for 13 31 for
06:45two
06:45it's a lovely delivery couldn't do much or anything about it just a little bit of movement of the seam
06:52and then straight into the hands it's a very good catch smart catch
07:00solmana liaga taking a very good one deliberately played that is outstanding just help that away for a boundary
07:16peach of a delivery
07:20oh good carry
07:26nicely done that's delightful just a tad overpitched and immediately lovely flourish of the bat for a nexus pay4
07:37oh almost crept through excellent over a maiden from Abbas it's 45 for two
07:46just a bit of weight offered and immediately pouncing on that cutting it square cutting it with comfort to the
07:53boundary to finish it over it's 50 for two
07:59oh no that is one that he seemed to have been anticipating just at overpitched and Najmalos and Chantal is
08:09plated with aplomb
08:14nice in control allows that ball once again that's been the essence of his innings so far
08:21mominal more often than not is prepared to stand his ground with slightly overpitched ball and plays with soft hands
08:31that short the civil's ground gets a hold of it and gets enough fat on it to take it to
08:38the mid wicket boundary
08:39what a lovely way to finish the over Bangladesh move on to 65 for two
08:48you gotta hold yourself in a position where you need to put that away down the ground it's such a
08:54pretty looking shot
09:00nice very nice beautifully done that should be another four lovely touch earlier it was moment
09:06a lot this time shanto and it's pretty unusual author that you find a debutant it was abdullah fuzzle who
09:15dropped the cat so we're showing the wrong person on the screen is he's been scratchless actually that's
09:22beautifully played lovely shot in position and and mominal now looking seriously good skittle the plans
09:33for sean masu that's beautifully put away read the length early went deep in the crease smashed for six
09:40great stuff first six the rocket six comes from the bat of the skipper himself yeah it was short
09:48and it lashed on it very very quickly yeah too easy to put that away in technically correct
09:57to ensure that this arrived early on from the burst from the new born ball bowlers
10:04and that has started to pay big dividends we'll come back to that 101 for two
10:10i think the bales are off and we have lunch so bangladesh with a fruitful session 101 for the loss
10:16of two and
10:17more importantly shanto the skipper has shaped up brilliantly 39 of 50 the pace is good is going at a
10:23strike rate of 78 and after early jolts bangladesh have steadied the ship and it's pakistan now i've got to
10:30amp it up a little in the second and the last session because if bangladesh get off to a good
10:35score in the
10:35first innings that'll make things stiffer for pakistan come the second and the following days but
10:43right now it's a partnership of 70 that has been impressive in putting bangladesh right on top in
10:49that first session
