Azmatullah Omarzai pitches it up, on middle, Mahmudullah swipes it away towards deep square leg and turns around for the second run. Rahmat Shah is quick to collect the ball and throws it to the keeper's end where Rahmanullah Gurbaz does the rest. Mahmudullah is well short of his crease but has played a terrific knock of 98 runs off 98 balls. Bangladesh finishes on 244/8!

49.5: Azmatullah Omarzai to Shoriful Islam, Back of a length and on off, Shoriful Islam dabs it to point for another quick one. The fielder misses again and Mahmudullah makes his ground. Bangladesh cannot reach 250 barring any extras, but can Mahmudullah score a hundred in Sharjah?

49.4: Azmatullah Omarzai to Mahmudullah, Back of a length and on middle, Mahmudullah heaves it away towards deep square leg for just one.

49.3: Azmatullah Omarzai to Shoriful Islam, Fuller and on middle, Shoriful Islam steers it towards point and sets off for the run. The fielder missed his shy at the batter's end or else Mahmudullah was a goner.

49.2: Azmatullah Omarzai to Nasum Ahmed, OUT! BOWLED'EM! Azmatullah Omarzai has four now! More importantly, it is a dot ball and Mahmudullah remains off strike. He cleverly takes pace off, on a length and on middle. Nasum Ahmed makes room and swings wildly across the line but goes through it way early. He misses the ball completely as it rattles the stumps. Can Bangladesh reach the 250-run mark in the next 4 balls?

49.1: Azmatullah Omarzai to Mahmudullah, Hard length and on middle, angling in, Mahmudullah misses his flick as the ball goes off his pads towards short fine. The batters crosses for a leg bye.

48.6: Fazalhaq Farooqi to Mahmudullah, Mahmudullah retains the strike for the last over! Pitched up and on off, Mahmudullah goes for the reverse sweep but misses and the ball goes off his pads towards point. A leg bye is taken. There is also an appeal for LBW, but the umpire says no. Afghanistan takes the review though. UltraEdge confirms no bat involved and Ball Tracking shows that impact is outside off. Afghanistan lose a review!

48.4: Fazalhaq Farooqi to Nasum Ahmed, Another full toss, on off, Nasum Ahmed bunts it down to mid off for a quick one. Hashmatullah Shahidi picks up but decides not to throw as there was no one backing up.

48.3: Fazalhaq Farooqi to Mahmudullah, Good stop! A full toss around off, Mahmudullah carves it wide of point where Rashid Khan dives to his left to make a brilliant stop. He certainly saves three runs for his time as the batters get just one.

48.2: Fazalhaq Farooqi to Mahmudullah, SIX! Up, up and away! Fazalhaq Farooqi serves this full and right in the slot, on middle. Mahmudullah throws the kitchen sink at it and whacks it way over the deep mid-wicket fence for a biggie. He moves into the 90s now!

48.1: Fazalhaq Farooqi to Nasum Ahmed, Change of pace, full and around off, Nasum Ahmed drags it away towards deep mid-wicket for a single.

47.4: Azmatullah Omarzai to Nasum Ahmed, Touch fuller and around leg, Nasum Ahmed swipes it wide of deep square leg and comes back for the second run. AM Ghazanfar is a bit lazy to get to the ball and Omarzai is not happy with the effort.

47.2: Azmatullah Omarzai to Jaker Ali, OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Afghanistan with a fine review now! A loud appeal for caught behind, but turned down! It is Afghanistan's turn to challenge the on-field decision now. Azmatullah Omarzai lands this on a hard length and just outside off, Jaker Ali tries to heave it across the line but misses. The ball goes close to the inside edge and there is a sound as well. Rahmanullah Gurbaz completes the catch behind the stumps. UltraEdge comes up and shows the spike and the on-field call is overturned. Bangladesh six down now!

47.1: Azmatullah Omarzai to Mahmudullah, Fuller and around off, Mahmudullah lofts it on the bounce to wide long on for a single.
