- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR18.1 instant impact! A wild attempt from Saif Hassan results in him losing his stumps. Full outside off and angling in, Saif dances down and has a heave, but misses the ball completely. It was a laboured knock from him and it's come to an end. Shaheen with a wry smile and muted celebration. Saif was backing away trying to make room, but ended up completely misreading the line 105/136.2 Tanzid has smacked this one straight to cover! A nothing ball, really. Back of a length and not even spinning away that much. He tries to cut this but the flight catches the bat and gets hit in the air, straight to Afridi. The crowd rises on its feet to applaud him back to the pavilion after a superb maiden ton 194/329.2 This time the finger goes up! Shanto has a word with Tanzid and decides to review Length ball outside off at 139kph stays low and raps him on the pad. This one looked even more adjacent than the last one. Hits him just above the front knee roll. UltraEdge confirms there's no bat. And that's crashing into top of leg, and Shanto will have to go! It's been a good spell from Rauf and he is rewarded with the wicket of Shanto 158/246.3 Can he clear deep square leg? No he can't! Slower ball does the trick for Rauf! Very full on the stumps, Litton tries to pick it up over square leg but he can't quite get under it. Easy catch for the debutant Ghori 262/446.4 Right through him! You miss, I hit, says Rauf, as he picks up his third. Full around middle, Rishad misses his big swing across the line, and the ball deflects off his pads onto the stumps and Rauf is on a hat-trick 262/5Extras26 (b 4, lb 7, w 15)TOTAL290/5 (50 Overs, RR: 5.8)Fall of wickets: 1-105 (Saif Hassan, 18.1 ov), 2-158 (Najmul Hossain Shanto, 29.2 ov), 3-194 (Tanzid Hasan, 36.2 ov), 4-262 (Litton Das, 46.3 ov), 5-262 (Rishad Hossain, 46.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 Nicks this to the keeper! Farhan shuffles down the pitch, but the ball looms large at him and tails away as he tries to tuck this down to the off side. Outside edge and to the keeper. Wonderful response from Taskin Ahmed 6/11.5 And he's gloved it to the keeper! Bangs in a short ball, Sadaqat tries to muscle a pull. But it hits his glove and goes up in the air. Landed straight in the keeper's gloves 12/213.6 And Ghori's chopped this back onto his stumps! Rana lets out a huge shout. This wicket was a long time coming. Ghori has played with a mature head, but this ball swung back in off a good length. He tried to glide this one down leg, but it took an inside edge and rattled his stumps instead 67/42.5 Goes through him like a rocketship in the wind! On a length, pitches outside off. Rizwan goes for a simple defense. But the ball tails back in and goes through bat and pad, Rizwan doesn't even turn back to look at his ruined stumps 17/317.4 Has he nicked it? The umpire takes his time, but raises the finger! The Fizz makes the breakthrough! 132kph cross-seam delivery angled across, Samad brings his bat to defend, but gets a thin edge. Good catch from Litton, with the ball dying on him to his right. Samad impressed in spurts, but now departs 82/547.4 He's skied it, and it's taken as the crowd roars! Taskin Ahmed has the big wicket and he lets out a roar that could rival the entire stadium right now! Slower ball, loopy and full, asking for Agha to stretch forward to make a connection, and he ends up hitting it high in the air. Shanto at deep midwicket comes in, settles under it and calmly takes the catch that should win Bangladesh the match! Agha walks off, disappointment writ large across his face 261/831.2 The crowd roaaaaarssssss!! Saad has absolutely lost the plot with this shot, I'm afraid. He has played so well so far, but he just slips down the pitch and tries to hoick this down the ground. Stumps rattled 161/639.3 Ohhhhhh, it's timberssss! Taskin strikes for Bangladesh. The ball is outside off, cramping him for room. He tries to play this too close to his body. Keeps low, zips back in, and takes the edge right back into the off stump 209/749.6 Misses the ball completely, gets stumped as he doesn't even bother trying to get back and Bangladesh win this series through an absolute humdinger! This was on a length outside leg and Afridi danced down to swing at it but missed completely. Litton had all the time to complete the stumping and they take the series 2-1 279/1048.6 An injured Mustafizur picks up a wicket! Haris Rauf had the license to swing, and he does, but he ends up skying the slower ball and picks out Mehidy at wide long-on. Well, bowling this one ball through the pain has been worth it for Mustafizur! 277/9Extras9 (b 1, lb 2, w 6)TOTAL279 all out (50 Overs, RR: 5.58)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Sahibzada Farhan, 0.5 ov), 2-12 (Maaz Sadaqat, 1.5 ov), 3-17 (Mohammad Rizwan, 2.5 ov), 4-67 (Ghazi Ghori, 13.6 ov), 5-82 (Abdul Samad, 17.4 ov), 6-161 (Saad Masood, 31.2 ov), 7-209 (Faheem Ashraf, 39.3 ov), 8-261 (Salman Agha, 47.4 ov), 9-277 (Haris Rauf, 48.6 ov), 10-279 (Shaheen Shah Afridi, 49.6 ov)
