Scorecard - 2nd Quarter-Final, Bangladesh vs India at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne, Australia (19 Mar 2015)

48.3 - Taskin Ahmed to Ravindra Jadeja, FOUR, Imrul Kayes, better win it for Bangaldesh with the bat. That won't make Mortaza happy. It will make him mad. Already Mortaza is seething with rage. It was a simple slide and stop, but Kayes after getting across to his right from deep mid-wicket, allowed the ball to slip under his body. Got the slide right, but incomprehensibly allowed the ball to escape. Retrieves the ball and throws it back. The camera pans to Mortaza, but I didn't pick up anything from him

48.2 - Taskin Ahmed to Ravindra Jadeja, FOUR, Ravindra Jadeja now gets four. Taskin Ahmed did well to follow the batsman, who was backing away, but bowled it full, which was the mistake, allowed Jadeja to clip it wide of backward square leg, inside the ring, beats deep square leg running to his left. Taskin Ahmed wears a disappointed look as he walks back

47.5 - Shakib to Ravindra Jadeja, FOUR, that is thumped by Ravindra Jadeja. Down the track and he belts the length ball wide of the diving cover, no chance for long-off, running across. The fielder at cover could've done a much better job at the edge of the circle

47.4 - Shakib to Ravindra Jadeja, FOUR, Shakib has beaten Ravindra Jadeja, but the batsman has got a boundary. Jadeja was looking to come down the track, it was fraction short, so he went back and edged the cut, deflected off Rahim's pad and raced away past the short third inside the ring. Shakib has a wry smile on his face

46.4 - Taskin Ahmed to Rohit, FOUR, Rohit is just toying with a young Taskin Ahmed. He is reading him like a book. Anticipates that the bowler may bowl the slower delivery, shuffles across and then picks the back-of-the-hand slower delivery, it sits up short for him to pull over square leg, no-one there and it dribbles away. Taskin Ahmed under huge pressure now

46.0 - Rubel to Rohit, FOUR, 'save your legs Rohit Sharma, don't run' says Nasser on air! So effortlessly played and perfect description from Nasser. It was on a good length and outside off, may have been the slower delivery as well, Rohit just lazily punched it wide of cover and split mid-off too. Both were inside the ring and Rohit continues to churn out boundaries

45.3 - Rubel to Rohit, FOUR, now pulls through mid-wicket. Knew Rubel will bowl short after getting hit for a six and murders a short-arm pull, sat back and hammered it

44.0 - Mortaza to Rohit, FOUR, more class from Rohit. Just a back foot punch and he gets four. Past the diving cover to his left, once it beat the fielder inside the ring, had to beat long-off to his left as well, the distance that the fielder had to cover made it hard and the ball trickled into the ad-cushions. Didn't hit it hard, just timed it superbly and the outfield did the rest

41.2 - Mortaza to Raina, FOUR, class from Raina. Shuffles across a bit and then goes over backward square leg in the ring. Controlled flick, even though it was in the air, no-one in the deep at deep square leg and Raina will get a boundary

41.0 - Shakib to Raina, FOUR, rubbish ball and Raina puts Shakib away. Down leg and short, Raina had all the time to rock back and choose his spot, he did so, sending the ball to the deep fine leg fence, over the man inside the ring at short fine. Shakib grimaces at the end of the over

40.4 - Shakib to Rohit, FOUR, now all the luck is with Rohit and India. A thick outside edge runs through the vacant slip and beats short third, fraction short outside off, Rohit cuts and gets lucky. Just a hit away now to get to his hundred

39.5 - Rubel to Raina, FOUR, Raina rubs more salt into the wound. This was overpitched outside off and Raina leant forward to drive wide of mid-off, got it in the gap and the quick outfield does the rest

38.3 - Taskin Ahmed to Rohit, FOUR, well played by Rohit. It bounced from a back of a length and straightened too, Rohit adjusted well and didn't jab at it, controlled stroke through vacant slip, beats third man and leaves Taskin Ahmed disappointed

37.3 - Rubel to Raina, FOUR, gift for Raina and he won't miss out. Low full toss down leg, it needed bat and Raina provided that with a clip, beating short fine inside the ring. Lots of hand-waving going on at the moment from the Bangladeshis

37.0 - Shakib to Rohit, FOUR, calculated hit and Rohit gets a boundary. Knows that he has to get it over the men inside behind square and opts for the sweep, kneels down and hits it well, that will be 11 runs off the over. India getting a move on now

35.3 - Mortaza to Raina, FOUR, Mortaza is a frustrated man. He wants to know how that has gone to the boundary. He stretches his arms wide and wants an answer. It was a slower delivery outside off, Raina opens the face of the bat and splits backward point and short third, right in the gap as the former dived across, while the latter ran after the ball, but couldn't stop it. The quick outfield takes it all the way. The fielders are on the ground and don't want to look at Mortaza

35.1 - Mortaza to Raina, FOUR, lovely way to begin the powerplay. Raina shimmies down the wicket and goes for his favorite inside-out shot over cover, everyone are in on the off-side and Raina knew that. Beautifully played and deliberately hit over the infield. The Indian dug-out applaud that shot

33.5 - Mortaza to Rohit, FOUR, delicate stuff from Rohit. There was no width on that at all from Mortaza, but he opens the face of the bat and plays a cute tap to the right of the diving Rahim, played ever so late and that's a boundary of the highest class

31.1 - Mortaza to Rohit, FOUR, very poor delivery from Mortaza, short and wide outside off, Rohit rocks back and cuts hard, over point, who leapt high to his right, but it was always going over his hand. Sweeper can't get there too. Good start after the break for India. That was a nothing ball and duly dispatched

30.0 - Taskin Ahmed to Raina, FOUR, edged and through where a second slip would've been. Raina going hard on the cover drive and edging it. Played well away from the body and the angle across him made it difficult for him to control the stroke. Taskin Ahmed hides his face with his hand in disappointment

28.4 - Nasir Hossain to Raina, byes, FOUR, Dar has made a mistake there. Down leg, Raina got a faint tickle on the leg-side glance and it hit the pad of Rahim before running away. Raina pointed out to Dar that he got bat on that, but Dar has more important things on his mind at the moment

27.1 - Taskin Ahmed to Rohit, FOUR, lovely flick. It was a tad too straight and on off and middle, Rohit played a delightful flick through mid-wicket, beat the chasing fielder easily, timing, balance and head position perfect on that shot. Breaks the shackles a bit with that boundary

26.0 - Taskin Ahmed to Rahane, FOUR, first boundary in 66 balls! And it has come via a thick outside edge. Taskin Ahmed had a slip stationed all over, but in order to protect the over, Mortaza moves the man and it has gone right through where a second slip would've been. Thick outside edge as Rahane punched and third man had no chance. Taskin Ahmed is a disappointed man, with a double-teapot pose

8.2 - Mortaza to Dhawan, FOUR, that is well-timed! Another off-pace delivery, Dhawan waits for it and clips that in the air, through mid-wicket, Nasir runs after it and puts in the head-first dive, but the hands don't go in the right position, can't pull it back and the ball touches the ad-cushions

8.0 - Nasir Hossain to Rohit, FOUR, Rohit goes over mid-off now. Down the track and goes a bit inside-out over the man, once he cleared the man it was four. Rohit was itching to get at Nasir Hossain and chose the right moment

6.3 - Mortaza to Dhawan, FOUR, Dhawan was cramped slightly on the cut, but he created his own room and punched it past the vacant short point position. It was on a back of a length and Dhawan timed the shot really well. Not sure why Mortaza moved that short point fielder to a short cover. It would've been fielded by that fielder, anyway Dhawan gets a boundary

3.2 - Taskin Ahmed to Rohit, FOUR, Rohit is quick to pull! Was on the front foot and played it awkwardly, but got it to the deep backward square fence. The weight wasn't fully forward, but he somehow swivelled around and played it in the gap, beats the fielder at long leg easily

2.1 - Mortaza to Rohit, FOUR, shot! Picture-perfect from Rohit. Got half-forward and offered the full face of the bat, the ball met the bat and off it went past the umpire, gave no chance to the chasing fielders. The Indian contingent clap with Rayudu leading the way

2.0 - Taskin Ahmed to Dhawan, FOUR, Taskin Ahmed spoils all the good work he had done in the over, by bowling a half-volley, Dhawan needed to middle that and put it in the gap and he did so with just a push-drive, into the gap at cover

0.5 - Mortaza to Rohit, leg byes, FOUR, a diving Rahim doesn't get there. Wrong line, down leg, brushes the pad of Rohit and beats the keeper to his left. All it needed was a faint tickle which came via the pad

0.1 - Mortaza to Rohit, FOUR, super start for India! Long half-volley outside off from Mortaza, Rohit had to reach out and did so, bending his right-knee and creaming a square drive wide of point. Went all along the ground and raced away. The outfield looks in good condition too
