S Zadran to L Das, FOUR! Easy peasy for Das! He gets a low full toss, outside off. A slower ball from Zadran gone wrong. All he has to do is get his bat on ball and get the placement right, which he does ever so easily. Creams it through cover-point for a boundary.

Mushfiqur Rahim is the next batsman.

M Nabi to Al Hasan, OUT! High in the air and taken... Nabi strikes and gets the big fish. Shakib departs after scoring just 15 off 15 balls. Bangladesh needed a big contribution from him but Nabi gets the better of him. Bowls a delivery much slower in pace and well outside off. Shakib looks for the slog sweep and ends up top edging it. The man with the mitts calls for it and makes no mistake. Does a small dancing gig to entertain the Afghan fans.
