OUT! Bangladesh lose a wicket in the first over of spin today, and this time luck doesn't come to Mehidy's rescue. Nicks the ball to the lone slip position, where Rohit dives to his right to complete a fine, low catch. Mehidy was a little squared up by the length delivery, and ended up getting an edge while looking to punch it in front of square. BAN 59/4

After 13 overs,Bangladesh 58/3 ( Shakib Al Hasan (C) 19 , Mehidy Hasan 13)

FOUR! First boundary for Miraz, and that should give him some confidence after living what has been a dangerous life so far, driving a full, wide delivery past mid off. Follows it up with a brace after pushing a shorter delivery in front of square. Eight off Prasidh’s third over including a wide off the first delivery.

Five runs added to the Bangladesh total in Prasidh’s second over, including three in the fourth delivery after a flick through the midwicket region by Shakib.

After 10 overs,Bangladesh 44/3 ( Shakib Al Hasan (C) 14 , Mehidy Hasan 7)

Thakur continues from the other end, and has two catches dropped off his bowling in his fifth over — with new batter Mehidy getting a reprieve on both occasions. First, it’s Tilak who puts down a sitter at square leg after Mehidy chips the ball in his direction in the third delivery. Three balls later, it’s Surya at second slip after Miraz gets a thick outside edge, although this one is tougher compared to the one Tilak got earlier in the over. Thakur will not be happy about that at all. Would have had three wickets to his name in the powerplay by now. Bangladesh, meanwhile, reach 44/3 at the end of Powerplay 1.

Shami starts off his second over on a successful note, breaching Litton Das' defence with a delivery that seams in and clips the top of the stumps. He follows up with back-to-back wides down the leg side, the only runs he concedes in this over. New batter Anamul Haque faces the remaining deliveries in the over without getting off the mark.
