    0.5 Hosein draws first blood! Bowls the menacing non-turner ball drifting in with the shiny new ball, Bhurtel moves onto the back foot to negate across the line, goes through the gates and crashes onto the middle stump. The batter stands there for a few seconds, tries to process the whole scenario, then trudges off back to the dug-out. Fourth time Hosein dismissed Bhurtel in T20I cricket. 2/1
    4.1 Finds the deep fine leg fielder! Massive smile on Holder's face and the West Indies players celebrate again. Bowls a wide ball down the leg-side, Sheikh plays the flick shot half-heartedly and doesn't get enough elevation to clear the ropes, finds Hetmyer near the ropes at long leg. Nine times out of ten, that delivery would have been flicked out of the park or found the ropes, but this was the rare occasion where it went straight to the sweeper fielder. 17/3
    3.1 Celebrappeal from Forde and the finger goes up! Bowls a good length ball pitching on middle-off and nips back in sharply, Paudel walks forward and plays across the line, massive gap between the bat-pad and thuds the front pad. The Nepalese skipper sends it upstairs immediately. Pitching is outside off, impact in line and just clipping the top of the leg stump, umpire's call and Paudel has to depart. 17/2
    19.2 Pinpoint silence in the stands, Airee has holed out! Change of angle does the trick for Holder. Fuller length ball angling in on the stumps, plays the slog stroke towards long on, the bat face rotates and does not get quite hold of it, picks out the safe hands of Powell, who had to cover a few yards in to complete the catch. 127/7
    6.3 Holder strikes again! A tad fuller length ball on middle-leg, moves across the line and flicks it away, mistimes the stroke and skies it high to the right of the midwicket ring fielder, plays the shot early. Forde covered his ground, settled underneath and gobbled it up. 23/4
    10.4 Another soft dismissal! Short of a length ball sprayed down the leg-side, walks across the line and tries to swipe it through behind the square, cramped for room and beaten by the extra pace, tickles off the glove and a regulation catch for Hope behind the stumps. 46/5

    14.6 Cleaned him up! Generously flighted length ball on middle-off, Jha gets down on one knee to tonk this out of the park, misses the line and length, disturbs the furniture and Nepal lose their 6th wicket. 73/6

    19.6 Straight up in the air, and taken at long off! Bowls a fuller length ball angling away outside off, throws his bat at it and doesn't get quite hold of it, miscues the stroke and finds the long off fielder. 133/8
