Shakib Al Hasan to Dipendra Singh Airee

Shakib Al Hasan to Dipendra Singh Airee
A loud appeal but turned down! Shakib reviews. It seems to be going down leg though. NOT OUT! It is umpire's call as it is clipping the leg pole. On the pads. Airee looks to flick but misses to get hit on the pads.

Fuller and on off. This is pushed down to long off for one.

Shakib Al Hasan to Kushal Malla
Flatter and on off. Kept out. Get a feeling Malla is going to target Shakib here.

Desperate stuff! On middle. This is pushed towards mid-wicket. Hridoy dives to his right and stops it.

Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla
Chance goes abegging. Outside off. This is cut towards point. Shakib fields the ball and throws it to the bowler who fails to collect it. Airee was short.

Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla
SIX! Gets hold of this one. Will that break the shackles for Malla? Tossed up outside off. The slog sweep comes out and it is nailed over the mid-wicket fence. Much-needed.

Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla
Two more! Outside off. This is slapped past cover for two.

Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla
FOUR MORE! Nice and fine! Could this be the game changing over? On the pads. Malla waits and then tickles it fine on the leg side. This races away to the fence.

Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla
Dot to end but the damage was done earlier on. 30 needed in 24. Slower and around off. Malla swings but this turns away and goes past the outside edge.

Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
Dot to begin! Slower and outside off. Airee slashes but misses.

Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
Good effort! Short and on the body. Airee looks to pull, this goes off the splice but lands just short of the fielder at deep square leg. He dives forward and makes a good stop. A run.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kushal Malla
Back of a length and on off. This is pushed to cover. Another dot.

Mustafizur Rahman to Kushal Malla
OUT! TAKEN! On comes Fizz and gets the big wicket. Malla falls. Bangladesh back on top. Length and on off. A slower one. Malla swings but this goes off the top edge. Shanto runs back and takes it nicely.

Taskin Ahmed to Dipendra Singh Airee
SIX! Dipendra Singh Airee goes big! Taskin Ahmed digs it in short but it is not short enough, around off, Dipendra Singh Airee skips down the track and cracks it over point for a biggie. What a start to a crucial over for Nepal.
17.2

Taskin Ahmed to Dipendra Singh Airee
Honing in at the stumps now, on a good length, Dipendra Singh Airee gets right behind the line to defend but gets it off the outer half to point.
17.3
1
Taskin Ahmed to Dipendra Singh Airee
Goes short again, over middle, Dipendra Singh Airee rolls his wrists nicely on the ball and pulls it through square leg for one. 7 runs off the first 3 balls. How much more can Nepal get off this over?

Taskin Ahmed to Gulshan Jha
Beaten! Angling away, on a hard length and skidding through, on off, Gulshan Jha tries to use the pace but the ball climbs onto him and zips past the shoulder of the bat.
17.5
W
Taskin Ahmed to Gulshan Jha
OUT! A soft dismissal and Taskin Ahmed finally has his first wicket of the night! Taskin hits the deck hard and it hurries the batter as well, on off, Gulshan Jha sets deep in his crease and goes for a swipe across the line. The ball gets big on him and it lobs tamely off the splice of the bat towards short cover where Towhid Hridoy makes no mistake. Sompal Kami is the new batter.

Taskin Ahmed to Sompal Kami
Good shot but equally well fielded. Serves it on a good length, outside off, Sompal Kami plays it late and cuts it towards backward point where Rishad Hossain is in really close but dives to his left to make the stop. 22 runs needed off the last 2 overs. A make or break over coming up for Nepal.

Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
Takes pace off and goes full, on off, Dipendra Singh Airee shapes up to go down the ground but misses as the ball grips in the surface and goes past the bat.

Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
And again! Going across the batter, slower and on a length, Dipendra Singh Airee gets undone by the slowness of the delivery and connects with thin air.
18.3
0
Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
Three dots in a row. Digs it in short, over middle and leg, Dipendra Singh Airee gets beaten for pace this time as he goes for the pull as the ball sails over his bat.

0
Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
Make that four dots on the trot. Sensational stuff by Mustafizur Rahman. Delivers it wide of the batter's arc, slower and near the tramline on off, Dipendra Singh Airee reaches out to go big on the off side but fails to put bat to ball.
18.5
0
Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
Would you believe it? Five straight dots in the 19th over. Keeps it near the wide guideline on off, fuller and slower, Dipendra Singh Airee frees his arms but fails to connect once again as he swings.

W
Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee
OUT! EDGED AND GONE! End of Dipendra Singh Airee's struggles against the Fizz and that should be the game for Bangladesh. Angling across, on a back of a length, on off, Dipendra Singh Airee shapes up to work it fine on the off side with an open bat face but only manages a feather on it and Litton Das takes it low near his ankles. A wicket-maiden from Mustafizur Rahman. Nepal need 22 runs off the final over. Sandeep Lamichhane comes in at number 10.

Shakib Al Hasan to Sompal Kami
OUT! STUMPED! Believe it or not, this is the first wicket of this World Cup for Shakib Al Hasan. Offers flight and attacks the stumps, on middle, Sompal Kami skips down the track to go back over the bowler's head but gets done in the flight. He misses to connect and Litton Das does the rest by taking the bails off. Abinash Bohara is the last man in for Nepal.

W
Shakib Al Hasan to Abinash Bohara
OUT! PLUMB IN FRONT! Two in two for Shakib Al Hasan to finish things off! Bangladesh are through to the Super 8s. Pushes it through, on a nagging length and it skids through, on middle, Abinash Bohara gets on the back foot and gets inside the line to work it away with the angle. He fails to get any bat on it and it goes through to trap him right in front of the stumps. Up goes the finger but Abinash Bohara takes the review, more in hope than anything else. There is nothing on UltraEdge and it is three reds on Ball Tracking. Nepal have been bowled out for 85 and this is the lowest total ever defended by a team in Men's T20 World Cups.
