Mominul 64(115)
43.2
Southee to Mominul, no run, angled in, it's not threatening off stump and Mominul lets it go
43.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, good length delivery outside off, Mominul defends to point
42.6
Boult to Shakib, FOUR, sloppy from the skipper. The ball's gone right through Williamson at mid-off. Not sure if he got a bad bounce. Don't think so. Just took his eyes off it and Shakib's firm push found a way right through the legs
41.5
Southee to Shakib, 1 run, fullish just outside off, Shakib drives firmly to the right of mid-off where the fielder makes a good tumbling stop
40.5
Boult to Mominul, no run, good length delivery outside off, left alone
40.4
Boult to Shakib, 1 run, oh mix-up. A little nudge to the left of mid-wicket and there's hesitation in the running. Latham has one stump to aim at. He misses. Reckon Mominul would have been in with his dive

Wagner to Mominul, 1 run

Wagner to Shakib, 1 run
38.6
Boult to Shakib, no run
37.6
Wagner to Shakib, no run

Boult to Mominul, no run, cuts him in half. A hint of seam back in towards Mominul as he loosely pokes away from the body. Lucky not to find the inside edge
36.4
Boult to Mominul, no run, good length ball around off, Mominul is forward in defence
36.3
Boult to Mominul, no run, Boult is peppering the back of a length but Mominul is largely comfortable with that length. Doesn't even need to play it this time

36.1
Boult to Mominul, no run, back of a length delivery nipping away outside off, Mominul shoulders arms
35.6
Wagner to Mominul, 1 run, short ball around shoulder height, Mominul gets on top of the ball with his wrists and pulls down to fine leg
35.5
Wagner to Mominul, no run, another bumper from Wagner. He's having a crack at these two. But he's not getting the length right. Too high and comfortably evaded
35.4
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run, gently nudged away wide of the man at square leg
35.2
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run, swivels across and tucks it off the hips down to long leg

34.3
Boult to Mominul, no run, stays in the crease to nudge a back of a length delivery to mid-wicket

33.4
Wagner to Mominul, no run, back of a length delivery outside off, left alone

33.2
Wagner to Mominul, no run
33.1

32.6
C de Grandhomme to Mahmudullah, no run, full ball on the stumps, driven to mid-on
32.4
C de Grandhomme to Mahmudullah, 1 run

31.2
Wagner to Mominul, no run, leaves the ball around the fourth stump line

30.6
C de Grandhomme to Mahmudullah, no run
29.5
Wagner to Mominul, no run
29.4
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run
28.5
Southee to Mominul, SIX, the wind takes it all the way. Short of length around the chest, Mominul doesn't quite commit on the pull and looks very unconvincing while getting a thick top-edge. But it sails over the keeper's head and over the ropes
28.4
Southee to Mominul, no run, withdraws the bat and lets the ball go outside off
28.3
Southee to Mominul, FOUR, crashes a drive through the covers. It's overpitched outside off and Mominul climbs all over it. Good batting

28.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, left alone outside off
27.6
Wagner to Mahmudullah, no run, good length delivery outside off, left alone
27.4
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run, half-heartedly pulls a short ball. He checked the shot and reduced the bat-speed on impact. It ensured that the ball didn't carry to fine leg
26.5
Southee to Mominul, no run, back to his fuller length around off, defended
26.4
Southee to Mominul, FOUR, just a tickle. The line gone wrong and the run leak in the form of boundaries keeps gaining momentum. On the ribs and going further down and Mominul rides the bounce, gets right close to it and gets his bat up in time to nurdle it into the fine leg fence
26.3
Southee to Mominul, no run,
26.2
Southee to Mominul, no run, another angler across ignored by Mominul. Too wide to get him to play at it
26.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, nice carry through to the keeper as Haque leaves it undisturbed
25.6
Wagner to Mahmudullah, no run, angling across off a good length. Not meddled around with
25.2
Wagner to Mominul, no run, bumps him in again. Decides late but decides rightly so to get himself out with a sitting sway
25.1
Wagner to Mominul, no run, banged in short, with the wind assisting him from behind, swayed across
24.6
Boult to Mahmudullah, no run, slips one on the pads, a nonchalant clip follows
23.5
Wagner to Mominul, no run, watches the ball around the corridor to escort it into the keeper's gloves
23.4
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run, goes hard with his flaying cut once again. Too hard and losing his shape in the process. Minus the timing to extra cover
23.1
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run, just short. Squared up to an extent on the drive with the away movement and gets the thick outside edge that falls inches short of Raval at gully
22.5
Boult to Mominul, no run, nice and compact waiting for the ball to get to him and defends it out stoically getting behind it in the process
22.4
Boult to Mominul, no run,
22.3
Boult to Mominul, no run, loose. Very much so. Looks to ride the bounce with a jump and has both feet in the air as he flashes the blade on the cut without bothering to account for the sharp bounce. Way over the bat
22.2
Boult to Mominul, no run, solidly behind on this occasion and keeps it out with the full faced defence
22.1
Boult to Mominul, no run, keeps the man at short mid-wicket interested. Chipped in the air and just short of the man perched there
21.6
Wagner to Mahmudullah, no run, 136.6kph. Seaming away and what follows is the front leg coming across to cover the off-pole and the hoist of the bat
20.5
Boult to Mominul, FOUR, a back of a length delivery sitting up nicely and dealt with appropriately. Uses the width on offer to back away and stabs it through point
20.4
Boult to Mominul, no run, on a length around off
20.3
Boult to Mominul, no run, goes short. And a sitting sway away follows
20.2
Boult to Mominul, FOUR, a sub-continental batsman's staple diet. On the pads and Haque can feed off it all day long. Does so on this occasion with a firm closed batted clip around the corner
20.1
Boult to Mominul, no run, sliding onto the stumps, puts his wrists to some use as he nudges it away into the leg-side
19.6
Wagner to Mahmudullah, no run, super stuff. Nipping away at pace and a half-hearted defence follows. Off the outside half of the bat
19.4
Wagner to Mominul, no run, fuller, wider and once again denect movement getting the ball back in, left alone once again
19.3
Wagner to Mominul, no run, top delivery and a better leave. Trusts the bounce to take it over the stumps and it wasn't all that far from scraping the top of off
19.2
Wagner to Mahmudullah, 1 run, around the abdomen and tucked away behind square with a shuffle to get himself inside the line of the delivery
18.5
Boult to Mominul, no run, a half appeal. Just a polite enquiry and shot down as expected. Right on the sticks and nipping back in, quite like the one that got Tamim, but Mominul did well with his initial movement to get outside the line of off
18.4
Boult to Mominul, no run, on a length veering in on the top of off, back and behind it in his block
18.3
Boult to Mahmudullah, leg byes, 1 run, on the hips and Mahmudullah misses his glance. is happy to steal a leg bye off a ricochet
17.5
Southee to Mahmudullah, 1 run, tight. A very streaky run, at least at this stage. Just about taps it to mid-on, right to the fielder and they take off for the single. And in his quest to make it in time, Mahmudullah dives, and takes the chuck on his right shoulder. All that just for a single, the one to take him off the mark. Bring out the magic spray
17.2
Southee to Mominul, no run, fiery pace but on the line gone wrong. Well down leg with the angle from round the wicket amplifying it further
17.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, 129.2kph, just the hint of seam movement away, a jumpy defence
16.6
Boult to Mahmudullah, no run, and as expected this one comes in. At some pace too. Hurries onto Mahmudullah, who was standing in defence and the movement takes it off the inside edge and on the inside of the thigh pad
15.5
Southee to Mominul, no run, stands tall, gets himself behind the line of the delivery and bunts it out off an angled blade
15.4
Southee to Mominul, no run, another bumper. Another duck
15.3
Southee to Mominul, no run, strays onto the pads, with the hint of inward tail taking it in further, clipped away
15.2
Southee to Mominul, no run, bangs it in again. An extravagant hoist of the bat in the form of a leave
15.1
Southee to Mominul, FOUR, using all the pace. And the width. And the angle. Stands his ground as he waits for the ball to come to him and slashes hard to carve it down to third man, and there is no one out there to keep out the boundary
14.6
Boult to Mahmudullah, no run, just a tad wider, and a lot more confident in his leave is Mahmudullah
13.5
Southee to Tamim, 3 runs, Test half-ton #20. A green wicket, windy conditions and three top quality seamers nibbling away - and Tamim gets to a fifty at better than a run a ball. Another off-drive leaning to the pitch of the delivery to caress it through the covers
13.2
Southee to Mominul, no run, banged in. Way too short for his liking and gives Mominul enough time to sit under it
13.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, on a good length and around the channel of the fourth stump, left alone
12.6
C de Grandhomme to Tamim, no run, tight lines, kept out with a defence
10.5
C de Grandhomme to Tamim, 1 run, nudges it with the angle through mid-wicket
9.5
Southee to Mominul, no run, brute of a delivery, and equally well played in the end. The ball zips through from short of length across off and Mominul quickly withdraws the bat after having initially shaped to fend it off
9.4
Southee to Mominul, no run, takes it on the body. The short of length delivery cramped him up on leg stump and kudos to Mominul for raising his hands and willingly offering the body. Shouldn't have hurt him much. Got it on the thigh pad
9.3
Southee to Tamim, 1 run, good short ball and it's a very risky pull from Tamim. He's hitting it from over his head and somehow keeps it along the ground to fine leg
8.5
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, no run
8.4
C de Grandhomme to Tamim, 1 run, Grandhomme responds to the previous delivery by banging it in short and Tamim still takes him on. Goes for a fierce pull. Mistimes it through square leg
7.5
Southee to Mominul, no run, he's adjusted late and adjusted well. Loosens the grip after being squared up by a short of length delivery and so the ball dies in front of the slips
7.4
Southee to Mominul, no run, picks the bouncer early and crouches underneath it
7.3
Southee to Mominul, no run, short of length delivery outside off, left alone. Good carry through to Watling. He collects head high
7.2
Southee to Mominul, no run
7.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, back of a length on middle and leg, tucked to short mid-wicket
6.6
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, 1 run, clips a full ball off the pads to the right of fine leg. Should have been a comfortable two but Mominul slipped while turning at the non-striker's end
6.5
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, no run
6.4
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, no run
6.3
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, no run, good leave. He correctly determines that the ball isn't coming back into him and so he can let it go with the angle
6.2
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, no run, good length delivery pushed across off, Mominul defends solidly to mid-off
6.1
C de Grandhomme to Mominul, no run, floats a full ball around off, Mominul works it to mid-on
5.6
Southee to Tamim, no run, good length delivery leaving the left-hander, Tamim leaves
5.4
Southee to Mominul, no run
5.3
Southee to Mominul, no run
5.2
Southee to Mominul, no run
5.1
Southee to Mominul, no run, fullish on the pads, nudged to mid-wicket
4.6
Boult to Tamim, FOUR, Boult continues to bleed. He's going on both sides of the wicket. Strays a half-volley onto the pads and Tamim picks him away through mid-wicket
3.5
Southee to Mominul, no run, bumper to welcome the new batsman. Well, actually Mominul had pulled out very late off the previous delivery which didn't miss the stumps by far. It was deemed a dead ball. He's happy to duck under this one
