- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.1 Gone! Lapse in concentration after a bit of a delay and a feeblish poke means he has to go back to the hut. Over the wicket and bowled shortish with the angle taking away, discernable outswing as well, gets a faint edge and has been gobbled by Rizwan! 18/110.1 What a start by Hassan Ali! Over the wicket, bangs it on a shortish length and gets it to nip away a fraction from middle, he is drawn into the edge and has been taken in the slips! 31/273.3 Nervous nineties and Mominul bites the dust! Fires in a quicker ball on the stumps, skids on and keeps a bit low; moves onto the back foot and tries to parry it across the line, hitting the front pad. Mominul reviews it immediately, and that looks plumb to me. Ultra Edge is coming up, no bat is involved there. Ball tracking confirms all three reds and hitting the middle-leg stump. A brilliant innings finally comes to an end. 276/452.2 Massive appeal and the umpire is unmoved! Good length ball nips back in with the angle. Shanto plays across the line with the straight bat, commits a bit late and thuds the top of the front pad. Masood sends it upstairs for another look. No bat is involved, confirmed by the Ultra Edge. Pitching outside off, shapes back in and hits the off stump. Finally, a sigh of relief from the Pakistan camp and the fielders celebrate. The 170-run partnership is broken and Abbas gets his deserved wicket. 201/3109.3 Cleans him up with a beauty! On a length and nipped the ball in and breached his defense as he played down the wrong line, tried to lash it down the ground and got undone by the angle and little bit movement. Huge breakthrough for Pakistan because he could have prolonged the innings and batted smartly with tail but now Pakistan can attack from both ends and finish up the innings quickly 380/896.4 Bowls a bumper wide outside off with whatever pace he can muster and gets the desired result, such a clever operator, he tries to bludgeon it downtown across the line and finds the fielder at mid-on - the fielder runs to his left and take a wonderful running catch. A lot of relief for Pakistan as they replenish their fluids in hot and humid conditions 338/5100.4 Straight to the fielder! Another soft-dismissal, needless! Back of a length at fifth stump line, Imam-ul-Haq with brilliant reflexes gobbles it up down his throat at backward point, barely had any Tim e to react. Abbas picks his second in this session, exactly what Pakistan were toiling for, but once again a loose shot as Bangladesh try to up the ante and pile up quick runs 354/6106.5 126.1kph. Bowls a well-directed lifter at middle, right at his eye-line and he gets in a tangle, trying to break free with a pull, ending up with a faint edge to the keeper, Abbas is absolutely pumped up, keeps finding ways to pick wickets 378/7Extras36 (b 20, lb 8, nb 8)TOTAL384/8 (110.1 Overs, RR: 3.48)Yet to bat: Nahid RanaFall of wickets: 1-18 (Mahmudul Hasan Joy, 6.1 ov), 2-31 (Shadman Islam, 10.1 ov), 3-201 (Najmul Hossain Shanto, 52.2 ov), 4-276 (Mominul Haque, 73.3 ov), 5-338 (Litton Das, 96.4 ov), 6-354 (Mehidy Hasan Miraz, 100.4 ov), 7-378 (Taijul Islam, 106.5 ov), 8-380 (Mushfiqur Rahim, 109.3 ov)
