T Perera to Ziaur, out Senanayake Run Out!! 1 run completed. Another one bites the dust. Sacrificing his wicket for the side's cause. Digs it down to square leg and runs back and he runs back to keep the strike. A high throw from the deep tests all of Mushy's height, who is made to leap full length to collect and whips off the bails in a flash. There never was a second and Senanayake had completely given up. Senanayake run out (Rumman Raees/Rahim) 7(4) [4s-1]

T Perera to Senanayake, FOUR, adjustment to perfection. Sees the length shortened depsite committing himself with a mini shimy down the track, adjusts in the end and opens his bat face with an arch away to steer this to third man
18.5
W
Emrit to Liam Dawson, out Caught by Abu Hider!! The pressure of dots consuming the set man. Goes hard on the slog to thie length delivery and miscues it terribly getting it off the toe-end of the bat. Flies high in the air and the fielder from mid-off runs in and settles under one of the easier takes. The Riders just not getting the move on they so needed in the final few overs and Emrit helps pull things back for his side. Liam Dawson c Abu Hider b Emrit 46(36) [4s-3 6s-1]
17.1
W
T Perera to Afridi, out Caught by Dilshan Munaweera!! A lengthy chat and it results in Perera dishing out the slower full toss. And what better than Afridi's wicket on this one. After carting the bowlers to all parts, it is a full toss, a juicy one too that consumes him in the end. Goes very hard at it looking to dispatch it away in typical fashion and in the process loses his shape and his grip. The result - a skewed balloon off the outer half of the bat to point. The crowd is silenced and normalcy is restored. Afridi c Dilshan Munaweera b T Perera 22(10) [4s-1 6s-2]

Abu Hider to Liam Dawson, FOUR, he goes through the off-side now but the result just doesn't seem to change. Pitched up outside off and Dawson goes through with the lofted drive. Teases the fielder, Taijul on the dive
16.1
4
Abu Hider to Liam Dawson, FOUR, and now Dawson joins the party with a class act. Uses the pace and the slant outside off to open the bat face to run it down bisecting the two men behind square to perfection
16
6
Al-Amin to Afridi, SIX, even better now. Hossain for some strange reason seems keen on bowling length stuff and it sits up nicely for Afridi to go hard aerially on this occasion. Gets the ball out of shape as well. Clears his front leg and takes the ball further
15.5
4
Al-Amin to Afridi, FOUR, and this one tests the fitness of the man at long-on. Would have needed Warner to cut it off. Ferocious power coming into that swat as Afridi takes on the back of a length delivery and introduces it into the fence
15
6
T Perera to Afridi, SIX, right out of the Afridi manual. That's how he believes in getting set at the crease. A length delivery and Afridi unleashes a mighty swing to dispatch the ball into the night sky and into the cow corner fence. You bowl there and Afridi will keep eating you alive all night
14.2
W
T Perera to Mithun, out Bowled!! Consumed on this occasion. Full, straight and 'You miss I hit' stuff. A brain freeze from Mithun who once again looks to go downtown with his across the line mow. The ball stays a touch low and goes under the bat to disturb the timber. The LED flash bails light up the night sky. No further heroics from Mithun but more importantlty it brings Boom Boom out to the middle. Mithun b T Perera 62(44) [4s-6 6s-2]
14.1
4
T Perera to Mithun, FOUR, saved by the outside edge. And to make matters worse, he pockets a boundary too. TP disguises one perfectly on the sticks and Mithun is way too early into his hoick, misses the line and gets it off the leading edge past the diving keeper as it runs away into the fence
13.4
6
Emrit to Liam Dawson, SIX, showing the maker's name. The shot of the innings. Just when things seemed to be slowing up, Dawson fetches a length delivery and lofts it well over extra cover
11.1
4
T Islam to Liam Dawson, FOUR, rather lethargic from the fielder. Perera the man guilty who just doesn't get down as expected. Down the leg side with the drift and Dawson helps it on its way with a faint tickle
11
F
Abu Hider to Mithun, 2 runs, not a bad way to bring up your half-ton. Eases into the drive and finds the gap too with the pierce through the covers. Pulls his patner back for the second and helps himself to the landmark in the process
9.5
4
Al-Amin to Mithun, FOUR, he continues to keep leaking the runs. Nice and short, sits up nicely minus the pace necessary to cause any damange and Mithun swats it across the line to reintroduce the ball into the cow corner fence
7.4
6
J Mendis to Mithun, SIX, slogs and slogs it out of the park. Doesn't hold back one bit and tonks the screws out of this fullish floated up delivery to deposit this well into the cow corner stands
5.4
6
Kamrul Islam to Mithun, SIX, smoked away! Too full on the leg-stick once again and this time Mithun goes bigger. Uses all the pace and the angle on offer to pick it up and deposit this over square leg. Doesn't even bother keeping it down
5.1
4
Kamrul Islam to Mithun, FOUR, persists with the line around leg and Mithun couldn't be any happier to pocket another boundary. Glances it off its hips and the ball races away into the fence
5
W
T Islam to Mohammad Shahzad, out Caught by Nafees!! What a waste of a wicket. Just when he looked like having got his eye in, Shahzad looks to go for the extravagant cut. Too greedy in the end is what the failed attempt proves him as this one flies off the outside half of the bat to short third man. Keeps dipping and dying by the time it gets to him but plucked out in the end with ease. Mohammad Shahzad c Nafees b T Islam 14(12) [4s-2]
4.3
4
T Islam to Mithun, FOUR, Mithun decides to join the fun now. A dragged up length and Mithun has all the time to clear his front leg and loft it with a mighty swing straight down the ground
4.1
4
T Islam to Mohammad Shahzad, FOUR, down the wicket, right to the pitch of it and executes the full swing of the arms to cash in. Slam-dunks it over mid-on and once again the ball rolls into the fence
3.5
4
Abu Hider to Mithun, FOUR, width again, but on the other side. Crashed away with a drive through the covers with a flashy drive
3.4
4
Abu Hider to Mithun, FOUR, very loose. Down leg and there was only one way this ball was going. On the pads and Mithun helps it on its way into the fence off a closed bat face
3
4
T Islam to Mohammad Shahzad, FOUR, so typically Shahzad. Sees the looped up delivery, clears his front leg, makes room and just doesn't hold himself back. Goes through with the inside-out lofted drive and doesn't bother keeping it down either. Over the infield and into the fence
2.4
W
T Islam to Soumya Sarkar, out Stumped!! The keeper starts celebrating as soon as he whips the bails off and he's seen something we all would be soon. Beats him in the flight does Islam with a teaser eluding the outside edge on the reaching poke, whizzes just enough for the keeper to collect, who takes the bails off instantly. So here we go on the replays - yes, the back leg takes ages to get back. First blood drawn. Soumya Sarkar st Rahim b T Islam 14(9) [4s-3]
1.4
4
Al-Amin to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, three in a row. This time Hossain overcompensates with one wide outside off, Sarkar isn't going to miss out on these. Leans into the drive and fences it through the tiniest of gaps between cover and point
1.3
4
Al-Amin to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, losing his radar here is Hossain. Gets another freebie down leg with the swing taking it further down, helped on its way off a closed bat face. Into fine leg this time
1.2
4
Al-Amin to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, too straight. And punished delightfully. Al-Amin starys one on the pads and Sarkar executes the swish and deposits this into the mid-wicket fence once again
