Saifuddin to Parvez Hossain Emon, no run, The Khulna side waste a review! back of a length ball around the hips, the batter tries to hook it away but seems like the ball has brushed his thigh pad. The replays are rolling in again and again to conclude whethere there’s a nick or it brushed the thigh pad. There’s a definite sound. The zoom-in angle shows that it might have just clipped the thigh pad and no bat. The on-field call stays and the wide stands.

Nahidul Islam to Naim, out Caught&Bowled!! Another soft dismissal! Lack of game awareness you can say. Tossed up ball on a length, Naim comes down the track tentatively and is not quite to the pitch of it, as a result he ends up chipping it to the right of Nahidul Islam who takes a low catch and then tumbles over. The Rangpur side is in trouble early. Naim c and b Nahidul Islam 13(9) [4s-1 6s-1]

Nahidul Islam to Rony Talukdar, out Stumped!! There was no need to do that, that was unneccessary and Rony Talukdar pays the price for it! Talukdar comes down the track as Nahidul Islam pulls the length back slightly, the batter plays for the turn but it goes straight on to beat him on the outside edge. A sharp take from the keeper and he takes the bails off in a flash, the batter is well short and can't get back. The in-form man is gone. Rony Talukdar st Azam Khan b Nahidul Islam 0(2)
