Tanzim Hasan Sakib to Kushal Bhurtel, FOUR! Edged away! A streaky start to the Nepal chase! Tanzim Hasan Sakib steams in from over the wicket and bangs it on a hard length, angling in, on middle, Kushal Bhurtel looks to play at it but it nips back in and catches the inside edge. It races down to fine leg for a boundary.

Taskin Ahmed to Aasif Sheikh, FOUR! Ungainly but effective! Angling in, on a back of a length, on middle, Aasif Sheikh sets deep in his crease and swipes across the line. Gets it off the inner half of the bat, behind square on the leg side for a boundary.

Tanzim Hasan Sakib to Kushal Bhurtel, OUT! TIMBER! Tanzim Hasan Sakib gets a wicket off a full toss but he won't mind one bit! Kushal Bhurtel stands there in disbelief. Goes searching for swing and tries to go full, at the stumps, it swings away late in the air. Kushal Bhurtel stays leg side of the ball to drive it down the ground. It zips past the outside edge and just clips the off-stump to knock the bails off.

Tanzim Hasan Sakib to Anil Sah, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Two in the over for Tanzim Hasan Sakib and this is just the start Bangladesh needed. Tanzim bowls this on a length and gets a little bit of away shape, on off, Anil Sah tries to launch it down the ground but gets it off the toe-end of the bat and it skies up high in the air towards mid off where Najmul Hossain Shanto settles under it and does the rest.

Taskin Ahmed to Aasif Sheikh, FOUR! That is a lovely shot! A little too full and put away! Fuller and on off. Aasif drills it down the ground and to the long off fence.

Taskin Ahmed to Aasif Sheikh, FOUR! Hammered! Aasif looks in fine touch but this is poor bowling from Taskin. Not the kind of over his side needed after the last over. This is short and outside off. Asking to be hit. Aasif slaps it past cover and this races away.

4.2
Tanzim Hasan Sakib to Rohit Paudel, OUT! Taken! Another one bites the dust! Paudel falls. Tanzim is on fire. His third. This though is a superb catch. Wow! This is short and outside off. Paudel cuts it hard but towards point. Rishad, who is quite close in to cut the angle, takes it. He makes it look so easy. Nepal in trouble now.

5.1
Mustafizur Rahman to Aasif Sheikh, FOUR! That is poor, that is very poor from Tanzim. Around off. This is guided down towards third man. It should just be a single but Tanzim lets it through between his legs. Boundary.

5.4
Mustafizur Rahman to Aasif Sheikh, OUT! TAKEN! On the second attempt. Aasif can consider himself a touch unlucky. Rahman comes on and strikes. Bangladesh all over Nepal at the moment. Outside off. Fuller. This is driven hard but straight towards short cover. Shakib looks to take it but it hits his chest and lobs up kindly. He keeps his eye on the ball and hangs on.

6.6
Tanzim Hasan Sakib to Sundeep Jora, OUT! HANGS ON! Tanzim has 4. He strikes on the last ball of his spell. Rishad Hossain takes another catch. Shorter and outside off. Jora cuts but straight to point. Rishad makes no mistake there.

Rishad Hossain to Dipendra Singh Airee, FOUR! This has been absolutely nailed! Fires it in, fuller and quicker, on middle and leg, Dipendra Singh Airee gets inside the line and sweeps it wide of deep backward square leg for a boundary.

13.4
Taskin Ahmed to Dipendra Singh Airee, FOUR! Cut away. That is a welcome boundary. Taskin has not been at his best in this game. He goes short and wide outside off. This is flayed over point and it races away.

15.3
Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla, SIX! Gets hold of this one. Will that break the shackles for Malla? Tossed up outside off. The slog sweep comes out and it is nailed over the mid-wicket fence. Much-needed.

15.5
Mahmudullah to Kushal Malla, FOUR MORE! Nice and fine! Could this be the game changing over? On the pads. Malla waits and then tickles it fine on the leg side. This races away to the fence.

16.4
Mustafizur Rahman to Kushal Malla, OUT! TAKEN! On comes Fizz and gets the big wicket. Malla falls. Bangladesh back on top. Length and on off. A slower one. Malla swings but this goes off the top edge. Shanto runs back and takes it nicely.

Taskin Ahmed to Dipendra Singh Airee, SIX! Dipendra Singh Airee goes big! Taskin Ahmed digs it in short but it is not short enough, around off, Dipendra Singh Airee skips down the track and cracks it over point for a biggie. What a start to a crucial over for Nepal.

17.5
Taskin Ahmed to Gulshan Jha, OUT! A soft dismissal and Taskin Ahmed finally has his first wicket of the night! Taskin hits the deck hard and it hurries the batter as well, on off, Gulshan Jha sets deep in his crease and goes for a swipe across the line. The ball gets big on him and it lobs tamely off the splice of the bat towards short cover where Towhid Hridoy makes no mistake. Sompal Kami is the new batter.

18.6
Mustafizur Rahman to Dipendra Singh Airee, OUT! EDGED AND GONE! End of Dipendra Singh Airee's struggles against the Fizz and that should be the game for Bangladesh. Angling across, on a back of a length, on off, Dipendra Singh Airee shapes up to work it fine on the off side with an open bat face but only manages a feather on it and Litton Das takes it low near his ankles. A wicket-maiden from Mustafizur Rahman. Nepal need 22 runs off the final over. Sandeep Lamichhane comes in at number 10.

19.1
Shakib Al Hasan to Sompal Kami, OUT! STUMPED! Believe it or not, this is the first wicket of this World Cup for Shakib Al Hasan. Offers flight and attacks the stumps, on middle, Sompal Kami skips down the track to go back over the bowler's head but gets done in the flight. He misses to connect and Litton Das does the rest by taking the bails off. Abinash Bohara is the last man in for Nepal.

19.2
Shakib Al Hasan to Abinash Bohara, OUT! PLUMB IN FRONT! Two in two for Shakib Al Hasan to finish things off! Bangladesh are through to the Super 8s. Pushes it through, on a nagging length and it skids through, on middle, Abinash Bohara gets on the back foot and gets inside the line to work it away with the angle. He fails to get any bat on it and it goes through to trap him right in front of the stumps. Up goes the finger but Abinash Bohara takes the review, more in hope than anything else. There is nothing on UltraEdge and it is three reds on Ball Tracking. Nepal have been bowled out for 85 and this is the lowest total ever defended by a team in Men's T20 World Cups.
