Mortaza nails Sehwag! Sehwag's disastrous recent run continues. Perfect offcutter that landed outside off stump, on a good length and cut back in.

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR13.2 Iqbal falls. Fatal poke outside off stump. But what an innings it has been. The guy has exploded into public imagination and how. A lovely probing delivery in the channel and Iqbal pokes at it and nicks it behind. 69/24.2 Zaheer takes out Nafees. Lands outside off stump, cuts back in but Nafees shoulders arms. To his horror the ball bends back in to hit him in front of offstump. Would have taken out the top of the off stump. It struck him just outsisde off but there was no shot offered and hence he was given out. This game is going to be a thriller. 24/115.6 Munaf strikes! That pitches just outside off stump and jags back into Aftab who tries to slog it over the leg side, he misses and gets hit on the back foot in front of middle stump, it's as plumb as can be 79/338.4 Hasan is stumped. He goes down the track but is beaten in flight and by the spin. The ball brushes the back pad and rolls to Dhoni who whips the bails off in a flash. Only 29 runs to go for Bangladesh. 163/442.2 stumped! Bashar gives Sehwag the charge looking to hit over the infield because mid-on was in the circle, he misses and Dhoni whips off the bails in a flash, too little and too late for India 175/5Extras13 (lb 1, nb 8, w 4)TOTAL192/5 (48.3 Overs, RR: 3.95)Fall of wickets: 1-24 (Shahriar Nafees, 4.2 ov), 2-69 (Tamim Iqbal, 13.2 ov), 3-79 (Aftab Ahmed, 15.6 ov), 4-163 (Shakib Al Hasan, 38.4 ov), 5-175 (Habibul Bashar, 42.2 ov)
