Pandya to Rahim, FOUR, Bangladesh almost have it. Rahim is almost in Pandya's face roaring in delight. Told you Rahim is good with the lap and that is exactly what he did. Back of a length around off, he moves across and gets it off the gloves to the left of Dhoni, who dived in vain. Rahim has already started celebrating
19.2 -
Pandya to Rahim, FOUR, in the air and wide of extra cover. That shot gets his team-mates to stand up and applaud. Length delivery outside off, Rahim walks across his stumps and slaps it to the left of extra cover, no chance for sweeper to stop that
18.0 -
Nehra to Mahmudullah, FOUR, it has been that sort of innings. Whenever India have picked a wicket, Bangladesh respond with a four or six. That is what just happened now as well. It was a juicy low full toss outside off, Mahmudullah creams the drive through extra cover, the ball scooted across the surface
17.2 -
Nehra to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, poor delivery and it has been dealt with. Drags it halfway down the wicket, Sarkar was waiting for something in his zone, pulls it flat and in front of square. There was a fielder in the deep, but he had no chance of stopping that
8.5 -
Pandya to S Rahman, FOUR, streaky and four, nothing wrong with the ball, cross seam fuller length delivery outside off, Rahman was swinging across the line, gets a thick edge that races away to the third man fence
8.4 -
Pandya to S Rahman, FOUR, top-edge and four, banged in short and on the stumps, Rahman was way too late on the pull, gets a fat top-edge that goes fine and beats the fielder to the fence
6.4 -
Ashwin to S Rahman, FOUR, Bangladesh are running away with this now, tossed up and on the stumps, Rahman reverses his stance and gets a top-edge on the sweep, has enough to clear Bumrah at short third man and rolls away towards the fence
6.0 -
Bumrah to Tamim, FOUR, fourth boundary of the over, Tamim is on the charge, comes down the track, Bumrah shortens his length a tad, Tamim went with hard hands on the drive, doesn't get hold of the shot - but finds the gap wide of mid-off
5.5 -
Bumrah to Tamim, FOUR, poor ball from Bumrah, full toss outside off, Tamim threw his bat at that, gets a thick edge that runs away past Dhoni, no need to run for those
5.3 -
Bumrah to Tamim, FOUR, this is getting worse for Bumrah, slower off-cutter, Tamim spotted it early, gets forward and lifts it over mid-on, one bounce and over the ropes
5.1 -
Bumrah to Tamim, FOUR, this will hurt Bumrah more, short of a length and on the stumps, Tamim runs down the track, makes room as he did so and crashes it past point, no one moved
0.1 -
Nehra to Tamim, FOUR, that's a poor start from India, but has Tamim injured himself? He collided with Nehra as he went across for the run, he doesn't look all that well. Remember, he sat out of the last match with sickness. Coming back to the ball, this was a friendly delivery on his pads, Tamim shuffled across and clipped it behind square on the on-side. Clumsy effort from Bumrah in the deep, he had it covered and then let it roll away to the fence. Tamim is off and running with a boundary
15.1 -
Ravindra Jadeja to Soumya Sarkar, SIX, timely six for Bangladesh. The pressure that was being built up has all been released with that hit. Quicker and bowled close to 100kph, Sarkar kneels down and slog sweeps it over deep square leg. Looked like a mishit but the Bengaluru ground takes care of the rest
11.4 -
Ravindra Jadeja to Shakib, SIX, Shakib keeps going at one end. A wicket falls and Shakib responds with a six. Quicker and speared across off, Shakib kneels down and nails the slog sweep over deep mid-wicket, hit it flat and into the crowd, stunned silence at the Chinnaswamy
10.5 -
Pandya to Shakib, SIX, in the slot and out of the ground. Fuller and on the stumps, Shakib cleared his front leg to get a free swing of the arms, presented the straightest of bats and lofts it beautifully over deep mid-wicket
9.5 -
Raina to Mortaza, SIX, that's a mighty blow from Mortaza, the crowd is silenced once again, comes down the track, gets to the pitch of the ball and drills it high and over long-on for a maximum
5.0 -
Ashwin to S Rahman, SIX, poor ball and Rahman takes heavy toll of it! Ashwin dropped one short and on the stumps, Rahman is quick to rock back and pulls it high and over mid-wicket, deep into the crowd

Pandya to Shuvagata, out Mustafizur Run Out!! India have pulled off a heist. What scenes at the Chinnaswamy. If you are an Indian supporter that is the place to be tonight. Drama, emotions and what not. Everything running high. The fireworks are going off in the background. Nehra leaped onto Dhoni once the skipper took the stumps off. Pandya is still pumped up. Please excuse me for not describing the ball. First have to mention who is doing what. Okay, with everything coming to a calm now. Here is the wicket, short of length delivery outside off, Hom has a slash and misses, Mustafizur was haring across to the other end. A run would have meant a Super Over. Dhoni, who had already taken off one glove, gathered the ball, ran forward and took couple of stumps out. Mustafizur was well short of the crease. Indians didn't seem confident at first, but started celebrating once OUT flashed on the giant screen. The crowd also waited for the decision and once they saw the roofs came down at the Chinnaswamy. Mustafizur run out (Dhoni) 0(0)

Pandya to Mahmudullah, out Caught by Ravindra Jadeja!! Wow! Mahmudullah can't believe it. Throws his bat up in disappointment. The crowd are on their feet. Mahmudullah is relcutant to walk back. The Indians are still in it. What captaincy from Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Swapped the deep mid-wicket fielder and got his best man, Jadeja there. Any other fielder would have found it difficult. Full toss on off, Mahmudullah swings across the line and wanted to finish it with glory, gets it high on the bat and spoons towards deep mid-wicket. Jadeja covers good ground, slides and takes it with both hands. Turns towards the crowd and lets out a roar. Mahmudullah c Ravindra Jadeja b Pandya 18(22) [4s-1]
19.4 -
Pandya to Rahim, out Caught by Dhawan!! Oh dear! This game doesn't fail to amaze. Rahim has his head back and looking up towards the sky. But the good thing about that wicket is Mahmudullah on strike. Another length ball from Pandya, Rahim stayed on leg-stump and pulled, got it nowhere close to the middle and it skied to deep mid-wicket. Dhawan reverse cupped it with ease. Rahim c Dhawan b Pandya 11(6) [4s-2]
17.5 -
Nehra to Soumya Sarkar, out Caught by Kohli!! This game is not over yet. A rank bad delivery and Sarkar has found the fielder. The crowd find their voice again, but not the Bangladesh contingent. A full toss on off, Sarkar moves slightly to leg, swings as hard as he possible could, mistimes it to long-on, Kohli moves to his right and accepts it gleefully. Right, can Nehra finish the over well? Soumya Sarkar c Kohli b Nehra 21(21) [4s-1 6s-1]
12.1 -
Ashwin to Shakib, out Caught by Raina!! Oh! The commentators curse. Just when I thought Shakib looks intent to finish the game, he perishes. India's strike bowler returns and gives them hope. Beautifully tossed up on off, Shakib had to play at that, the ball gripped and turned and all he could manage was an outside edge, Raina has those for breakfast. Excellent captaincy from Dhoni, he had a slip even though Shakib was in and it was the 13th over. Shakib c Raina b Ashwin 22(15) [6s-2]
11.1 -
Ravindra Jadeja to Mortaza, out Bowled!! Jadeja. That is Dhoni's reply. But Bangladesh won't mind that. They are ahead of the game and have plenty of batsmen waiting in the shed. Mortaza backed away to leg to go inside out, Jadeja fired it in on leg-stump, turned enough to beat the outside edge and crash into middle stump. Mortaza b Ravindra Jadeja 6(5) [6s-1]
9.3 -
Raina to S Rahman, wide, out Stumped!! A wicket out of nowhere and credit goes to MS for this stumping. Razor quick work from the Indian captain, Rahman lost balance momentarily and that was enough for him to whip the bails off. Rahman's feet was in the air and he gets the marching orders from the third umpire. This was a poor ball from Raina, short and miles down the leg-side, Rahman went for the flick and missed, his foot was in the air for just a second, that's enough to signal his doom. S Rahman st Dhoni b Raina 26(15) [4s-3 6s-1]
7.4 -
Ravindra Jadeja to Tamim, out Stumped!! RJ gives India a lifeline, but yet another Bangladeshi batsman has thrown it away. He's a canny bowler, Jadeja, saw Tamim coming down the track, slipped in a flatter and quicker delivery outside off, the ball sneaks past Tamim's desperate lunge, kept a tad low as well. MS is quick to whip the bails off, Tamim was nowhere to be seen. Tamim st Dhoni b Ravindra Jadeja 35(32) [4s-5]
2.2 -
Ashwin to Mithun, out Caught by Pandya!! Mithun has thrown his wicket away. Massive celebration from Pandya after taking the catch at wide long-on. A waste of a wicket though, Mithun gave it away all too early. Ashwin saw him coming and held this one back a bit, Mithun wasn't anywhere near the pitch of the ball, was looking to go back over the bowler's head, ends up dragging it wide of long-on, straight down the throat of Pandya. He holds on, jumps around in joy and so does the Chinnaswamy crowd. Mithun c Pandya b Ashwin 1(3)

Bumrah to Soumya Sarkar, 1 run, dropped! There goes another one. This time Dhoni is the culprit. These sort of things won't help you win games. Yorker on the stumps, Sarkar moves to leg, opens the bat face and steers it to the left of Dhoni, who dived and had it in the mitts for a second. But once he hit the ground the ball popped out
10.3 -
Pandya to Shakib, 1 run, dropped! India are making it hard for themselves. This should have been taken by Ashwin. The fans can't believe it. Short and outside off, Shakib slashes it to sweeper cover, Ashwin came running in, dived forward and allowed the ball to pop out. He never looked like taking that
4.4 -
Ashwin to Tamim, 1 run, Bumrah is having a shocker in the field, he has dropped a dolly now, this was tossed up on off and spun away, Tamim was looking to sweep, plays against the spin and gets a massive top-edge. It went high into the Bengaluru sky and when it came down, Bumrah was right underneath it, he waited and waited and somehow fails to hold on. The crowd is hushed into silence
0.5 -
Nehra to Tamim, no run, that will go down as a chance, very tough catch though, came back at the rate of knots. Nehra hadn't even completed his followthrough, gets both hands but can't hold on. These are the sort of catches that needs to stick. On a good length and just outside off, Tamim went hard on the drive, closed the face of the bat and drilled it back at the bowler, hit Nehra's hands and popped out
18.2 -
Bumrah to Mahmudullah, 1 run, Bangladeshi fans thought Mahmudullah got four there. A low full toss and he went for the paddle, bent low and picked out Nehra at short fine leg, who has a aim at the striker's end. He missed and Rahim survives
