This one lands safe! Shorter and on off, Mahmudullah looks to flat bat it, it goes off the splice towards mid off for one more. 58 needed in 31, run rate needed above 10. Can Wheal end it well?

Brad Wheal to Afif Hossain
FOUR! Wheal can't believe how Afif Hossain has hit that for a boundary! Even we can't, what a delivery that was. A yorker on middle, Afif Hossain manages to jam it out, he just opens the face at the end and plays it past short third man for a boundary. Spoils the over a little but still a good one. 54 needed in 5 overs.
