00:00Good evening and welcome. We're here at the Sharjah Cricket Ground again, this historic venue, one of the greatest going around the cricketing world for this third and final Eti Salat Cup, T20 International.
00:24A little earlier, this was the toss, about 20 minutes ago, and Bangladesh won the toss. They've stuck with the same tactic. They've decided to have a bowl first. In terms of the two 11s, we've got one change for both sides. We'll start with the Afghan team and a really special evening today indeed for Bashar Ahmed, who comes in, the left arm seamer. He replaces Noor Ahmed as the one change to the starting 11.
00:49And then for the Bangladesh, Mustafi Zahraman misses out this evening, advance to those ODIs, and then Tanzim, Hassan Sakib comes in to the side with his express pace.
01:03Afghanistan will be hoping that's the same as we move on to this pitch. We're all set. Let's play.
01:12Strays down the leg side. We'll start with the wide.
01:18Guided away. Just the one slip in place.
01:21The lead third is one of the two fielders outside.
01:23The guy who can easily take on any bowling attack in the world. Coming down the track.
01:30A part of the inside edge.
01:32Collecting a couple of points.
01:38Gorgeous stroke.
01:39Beautifully played.
01:40Pierces the infield and races to the rope.
01:43Slightly shorter that side.
01:44As you come right the way across the square.
01:46Good diving stop.
01:51You will get through for the single, but for me that's three runs saved.
01:55Are you ready to see that, Fervéz?
01:58Cut away. Good stroke.
02:03Steady goes over the leg side.
02:05Great use of the feet.
02:06It's a dancing.
02:07Ramon Ola Gerbaz down the track.
02:12This goes up.
02:13Mid-on fielder nestles backwards and holds on.
02:17Really good catch from Noral Hassan Sohan, who made the diving stop in the first over.
02:26Back up the length.
02:27That was bounced on off.
02:29Trying to play.
02:30Pull shot off the front foot.
02:34Second over.
02:37Oh, what a take.
02:38Superb.
02:40And it's a diving Shamim Hussein.
02:44And these are the rewards of working hard infielding in training.
02:47Take a look at this for a catch.
02:49Shamim Hussein Patwar.
02:51He battered so well in the last game.
02:53Pakes a blinder.
02:55It's about to understand the situation of the game.
02:58Slough sweep.
02:59Short boundary to the left side.
03:02Plenty of air time, but not the distance.
03:04Should be in a comeback for a couple of runs with Sanzee Masan Shaqib.
03:07That is some hit.
03:12Well, if ever there was a glimpse of how good a player he is, there is one there, right there.
03:21Excellent delivery.
03:22Shaped back into the stumps.
03:23Fuller length.
03:27Ball day misses.
03:29A full toss.
03:31A soft dismissal.
03:32You've got to call it that.
03:33But a tremendous strike from Saifuddin in Bangladesh.
03:37Completely missed the sight of the ball.
03:39It was a full toss.
03:42And somewhat he missed it.
03:44Exposed all his stumps.
03:46And that celebration of Saifuddin.
03:53It was a tough one for the keeper.
03:57Had more spin on that one.
03:59Four byes, I think.
04:00Taken from Nurul Hassan.
04:01A great placement.
04:07That's because most of the time it's been falling along.
04:11That's a good shot.
04:12Short ball picked up early.
04:14Short boundary to the left side.
04:15And peppers it, Saifuddin.
04:16To end the ninth oval.
04:1869 for three.
04:19Siddiqui is on 28.
04:22Gets it over the top.
04:23On the offside.
04:24Could be caught on the boundary.
04:25Yes.
04:25On the second attempt.
04:26Yes.
04:27He's done it.
04:28Saifuddin has struck again.
04:30One of those series where Afghanistan just want to press on the gas and get the quick runs.
04:38And straight away after a break.
04:39How many times you've seen a break brings up a wicket.
04:43And that too the settled batter.
04:45Confirmation.
05:10Line belongs to the umpire.
05:11We'll signal a no ball which becomes a four and a single five runs.
05:17Arvish goes down the ground.
05:19We'll be caught but it won't matter.
05:25Bishab into the attack.
05:26And we'll pick up a single.
05:29We'll be coming back for the two.
05:31Very close to the line there.
05:37Bobbed in the air.
05:39This could be caught.
05:40Azmuth is gone.
05:42Bishab taking the wicket.
05:45Lost the senior partner in Siddiqui Lattal in the previous over.
05:48Needed some stability to get to 140-150.
05:52And against a leg spinner turning away from the right hand.
05:56He likes to go over long on.
05:57Does it.
05:58Gets the top edge.
05:59Now poor stroke comes or takes Azmuth Alomai's innings just for three.
06:05He's going to slide on and miss the leg stump.
06:10No turn really on offer.
06:11Just skid it on.
06:14A bowling through the gate.
06:16Right now they are thinking of 3-0.
06:21This is the perfect delivery.
06:23Probably just a bit of natural variation.
06:25Maybe kept a fraction low.
06:27I don't think it was the out-and-out arm ball.
06:29But again it's just the angle and the skid on.
06:32Nabi can't quite believe.
06:36Rashid Khan doesn't mind which way it's going.
06:39That might be a very flat six.
06:41Something for them to learn and move forward.
06:44Oh very close to the stumps.
06:46Probably got an inside edge into the fence.
06:51Top edge.
06:52Deep fine leg out there.
06:54Oh it's another wonderful catch.
06:56And it's such an important one.
07:00A feet away from the fence.
07:02It was a high bouncer.
07:04And a very good catch.
07:06He had to really look at the boundary fence.
07:13And he is going to be dismissed from his very first delivery in international cricket.
07:19Didn't back on his debut.
07:21He's had a good go at it.
07:22Saifuddin the guy who got this under control.
07:27Fantastic piece of catching from Bangladesh.
07:30They're on the run.
07:31Diving full length in the end.
07:32Making sure that he held on to the ball.
07:38Oh inside edge.
07:39It was so nearly 99 for 9.
07:42But the 100 will come up.
07:44Rasulis betting on 17.
07:47Trying to play with a sharp huge appeal.
07:50And it's been accepted by umpire.
07:52In Afghanistan continuing to lose wickets here.
07:56At the Sharjah cricket stadium.
07:58Ball very close to the bat.
08:01Yes.
08:02Flat line, flat line.
08:04And also can see gap between ball and bat.
08:07Now move to ball tracking.
08:09Satisfied no bat involved.
08:11Pitch in line and peck in line.
08:19Wicket missing.
08:21Reverse your decision from out to nato.
08:24You are on screen now.
08:25Give signal.
08:26For Derby Sasuli.
08:29Goes over the top.
08:30Handsome shruk.
08:32Bouncing away for four.
08:33Shot and pulled.
08:38And pulled it majestically.
08:40It's gone for six.
08:42Great connection.
08:44Pulse.
08:45Down the ground.
08:46Driving forward.
08:47Missing.
08:48Will keep this strike as well.
08:50Is he thinking about going back for the second.
08:52That could be trouble.
08:53But he reaches there to the safety eventually.
08:57Crashing through the extra cover.
08:59A firm strike from Mujib.
09:01He picks up a boundary.
09:05Hammers.
09:06Has he found a gap?
09:07Yes, he has.
09:12Suli's the call.
09:15Should be going back for the second.
09:21Slower delivery.
09:21And spoons it to the man at short third.
09:26Well, Dervesh Rasuli.
09:29It's good in time that the slower delivery got him.
09:33Still leading with the M5 at the moment.
09:44Roll forward.
09:45Forward.
09:49Forward.
09:51Forward.
09:52His finger on the.
09:59Freeze it.
09:59Freeze it.
10:03Slices it.
10:06Over.
10:09Missing is going to go back for the second.
10:10He should be thinking about going back for the second.
10:15Slower delivery.
10:17Comes forward.
10:19Drops it.
10:21Mujib does not want run here.
10:22On the offstand, I beg your pardon.
10:24That was for a taking by Sohan.
10:26He dropped that.
10:30Slower delivery.
10:31Excellent stroke.
10:32Over the top of Ekstra.
10:33And away to the fence for four.
10:38Choose the call.
10:40Single taken.
10:40He's coming back for the second.
10:41Can he get there to the safety of the crease?
10:43Yes, he will.
10:44Two crucial runs to end the first innings from where they were.
10:5098 for 8 to 143 for 9.
10:52This has been valuable contribution from Mujib.
10:5423 of 18.
10:56To give some respectability to the total for Afghanistan.
10:59143 for 9 and 20 overs.
11:01This is why I did mention something special from Afghanistan.
11:04Who is it going to be?
11:05Is it going to be Mujib?
11:06The debutant Bashir.
11:07Let's find out.
11:08Excellent over.
11:15Starts out with a maiden.
11:22No surprises here by Marzai.
11:24Straight away coming around the wicket.
11:25Oh, that's well defended.
11:30There's a little bit of hesitation between the two runners.
11:36Big shot.
11:37Is it a big shot?
11:38That's just about does it for the left-hander.
11:40That's it.
11:44That's up and over the infield for four.
11:47Quicker delivery.
11:48A little bit of width.
11:50And made use of that width.
11:54That's a beauty.
11:55Hard length.
11:59Rush in this quick and almost a breathtaking catch.
12:03Really would have been a world-class effort.
12:07And he sets a great example in the field also.
12:10Captain leading by example.
12:12Valiant attempt.
12:13And he gets underneath it.
12:16I thought in this Afghanistan side,
12:18anyone can get close to that,
12:20would have been Rashid Khan.
12:21Yeah, on the pads and gone for four.
12:29They are the form opening pair for Bangladesh.
12:32Anything loose will be put away.
12:33That's the line you want to stay away.
12:36This time in movement towards the left-hand.
12:40Easy pickings for the...
12:43As...
12:43As Matula Ormitzai changes ends,
12:48Rashid Khan comes underneath.
12:49It wipes his hands and holds on.
12:52And holds his nerve.
12:53It's an excellent catch.
12:54The slower cutter does the trick.
12:57He was too early into his shot.
13:00And...
13:00Rashid Khan takes a very comfortable catch.
13:04Look at that.
13:05He'd wiped his hands.
13:06Take any sweat off.
13:08And As Matula Ormitzai once again among wickets.
13:11Four wickets in the last match.
13:12And provides the breakthrough to Afghanistan.
13:15Iman departs after making 14.
13:17Bangladesh lose their first.
13:1824-for-1.
13:19Made sure that he holds on.
13:21I think this is just outside the line.
13:25Height potentially an issue as well.
13:27But for me...
13:28Initially...
13:30My instinct is this is a good decision.
13:33Pitch outside the half.
13:37And back outside the half.
13:43This goes miles up again.
13:46Rashid Khan cares back after it.
13:49But it's up and over the rope.
13:51I think again a change of pace.
13:56A slower ball.
13:56A cutter.
14:01Should be at least a couple here.
14:03In fact it may get to the rope.
14:05So many came to bring the youngsters into the game.
14:07Help try in the corner.
14:10No fine leg in place.
14:11And will fly all the way.
14:14Loves to play aggressively.
14:16He's already hit two sixes.
14:18It's 47-for-1.
14:20A little bit more turn.
14:22Today Rashid Khan will enjoy that.
14:24He won't enjoy the fielding effort though.
14:26As it's dived over.
14:28A backward point.
14:30Not an easy one to stop and cut off.
14:32Keep your eyes on both deliveries.
14:34Those with the googly pulled into the gap.
14:37And pulled for four more.
14:43That's not the right line.
14:45And that's too easy for a power hitter of Seif's quality.
14:51When Seif is taking this game away.
14:53But that was for taking.
14:55Ball was down the left side.
14:57Pitch shot.
14:59And Seif said thank you very much.
15:00I don't mind smashing another big six of 74 meters.
15:04To be another twist or two.
15:09So down the ground.
15:10There's protection at it long on.
15:11So it'll just be a single.
15:15Goes up in the air on the onside.
15:20Should be back for two.
15:21Went with a stroke.
15:25Launches it downfield.
15:29Humongous.
15:30Six.
15:31To end the ninth over.
15:33Tansit Hassan Tameem.
15:35He gave the full treatment.
15:37I thought it was a googly.
15:39Turning away from the left hand.
15:42High and handsome.
15:43Mixes Gallo.
15:48Sharp turn.
15:52Gets the top edge.
15:53This could be caught.
15:55Abdullah, Emma Jai.
15:57Oh dear, dear.
15:58It's been dropped by Dervish Asuli.
16:00Just cannot believe it.
16:01Nine out of ten times in the warm-ups.
16:05He would take it.
16:06Eyes closed.
16:08That should have been taken.
16:10That was a sitter.
16:11It shows the kind of day Afghanistan has been having, unfortunately.
16:18Admin wicket.
16:20Slower delivery.
16:21Another opportunity.
16:23Takes it safely.
16:24Ibrahim.
16:26Wicket for Abdullah, Emma Jai.
16:28Finally.
16:29But this occasion, Emma Jai boasts a lovely slow delivery into the pitch.
16:33Ibrahim Zadran.
16:34This time makes no mistake.
16:37Easy catch.
16:38And the smile comes out.
16:39Well done, Abdullah, Emma Jai.
16:41You deserved it.
16:42Not before.
16:43Tansit Hassan are important and a very good contribution of 33.
16:4779 for two.
16:49This is strained down the leg side.
16:52The pressure which was built has been released.
16:56The effort.
16:57Well done, Bashir Ahmed on debut.
16:58Trying to work through on the onside.
17:04Wide signal by the empire.
17:08I tell you what.
17:09Rashid Khan saw Jakar Ali going outside the ostom.
17:13Fired in a yorka.
17:17That's gap between ball and bat.
17:20And now move to ball tracking, please.
17:23No bat and ball.
17:24Pitch outside the leg.
17:31Is that you are on screen now?
17:33Signal.
17:34Stay your original decision not out.
17:37The original decision is not out.
17:43She was a feel.
17:44Finger has gone up.
17:47I tell you what.
17:48That look mighty close.
17:49Jakar Ali possibly will go upstairs.
17:52Being the captain, he probably will speak to Saif himself.
17:56And yes.
17:59Roll forward.
18:00Forward.
18:02Flat line.
18:03Flat line.
18:04Yes.
18:04Flat line.
18:05When ball pass to the back.
18:10Pitch outside the leg.
18:12Is that you reverse your decision from out to out?
18:16Technology comes in handy.
18:17Good pressure being applied by Afghanistan.
18:20And that pressure gets broken.
18:24He's hit a lot of boundaries.
18:25Three sixes.
18:27And now this first four.
18:28Saif Hasan.
18:29Lost streak.
18:32Oh, it's a favorite shot of his.
18:34And this has gone miles.
18:36And miles.
18:37And still going.
18:38Well, that's huge from Mohamed.
18:44Saif Hasan.
18:46And that is a brilliant shot.
18:4892 meters.
18:50And it's got such an elevation that goes all the way out of the ground.
18:54And somehow ends up going towards fine leg and goes for four.
19:01The batter doesn't know how it's got there.
19:06Same length again.
19:08It's punished over and over again.
19:10Not all the way for six this time.
19:12But Saif Hasan has taken Afghanistan to the sword there.
19:16It's 106 for two.
19:18On a different planet, isn't it?
19:19You know that you have a cushion.
19:20You can experiment a few things.
19:22Oh, this is looking very, very close and given.
19:27I think if Jackeralli uses the review, he may use it in vain.
19:31But he chooses to go upstairs anyway.
19:35Roll forward.
19:37There's flat line, flat line.
19:40Flat line when ball passed to the bats.
19:42No bat involved.
19:44Now move to ball tracking, please.
19:49Pitch upside the half.
19:52Impact, umpire call.
19:54Wicked, umpire call.
19:57You on screen now give signal out.
20:02Final one of his spell.
20:05Oh, and he's cleaned him up.
20:06It's two and two.
20:08We said he'd like the left-hander off air.
20:11Now on air.
20:13Afghanistan, they always create a twist and turn.
20:16Tell you something, it's a clever piece of bowling.
20:18Because it's that little carom ball that he flicks out that has deceived him.
20:22Come back in.
20:23Cramped him for room.
20:24And done enough to take the leg bail off.
20:27Wojeeb is ecstatic.
20:28He's been excellent in his appearances this series.
20:32Great to see him back to form.
20:33It's a golden duck for Shami Moussain.
20:35109 for four.
20:36Oh, what a magnificent effort.
20:42Tumbling through the air.
20:44Belying his age as always, Mohamed Nabi.
20:47Mohamed Nabi giving his 100%.
20:49That was hit hard, hit well, and would have been a spectacular catch had Mohamed Nabi held on to that.
20:55That would have been a match-winning catch.
21:01Just didn't stick into his hand.
21:05Tell you something, it's a really good effort, isn't it?
21:07Because it's been hit so hard.
21:11Top edge.
21:13But I think this is going to fall safely.
21:15It's going to go all the way, remarkably.
21:16And he has to compensate for the last maiden oar, isn't it?
21:22He didn't get hold of it.
21:23And that was not properly caught.
21:27But then again, that has gone all the way.
21:2956 metres, just enough.
21:33Oh, what a way to go to 50.
21:37Saif Hasan has hit six sixes in this innings.
21:41Once again, it's raining sixes around Sharjah.
21:45Slower ball, he ran it well, set for it nicely,
21:49and smashed this off the meat of the bag for a maximum.
21:53This is a six six, 95 metres.
21:57He's just been turning it on and sending it farther and farther for the maximum.
22:04Nice to go again, doesn't get it.
22:08Bounces just shy.
22:10Norwish Rasooli, who, remember, dropped that sitter earlier in the game.
22:14Just 18 more to win.
22:15What we said play, Dave, must be still playing on top of the mountains as well.
22:19It's a mountainous hit.
22:21It's been coming around.
22:23We'll see it sailor in for six.
22:25And then he's got this great ability to play fearlessly.
22:32Backing his six-hitting ability.
22:35Fetching it from off to long on for a gigantic six.
22:38Got tremendous temperament and talent.
22:42And a catch almost.
22:44But he'll keep on challenging you.
22:49As a batsman, the call is on World Cup.
22:55Sutorpshot.
22:56Slow delivery and he's picked it really well.
22:59And smacked it over the boundary for six.
23:01Yeah, I mean, slow one picked off.
23:08And once again, it's a strong strike.
23:111.44 for the loss of four.
23:1550th six of the tournament to claim victory for Bangladesh
23:19as they win by six wickets.
23:21€1.
23:35€1.
