Amir to Mahmudullah, 1 run, oh dear me! He's absolutely flooooown into the stumps, has Shadab! Just an inside edge onto the thigh and it trundles to backward point, and they thought they could sneak a single - and they have, but only just. Shadab hares in, picks up, and absolutely demolishes the stumps - all three, out of the ground. The third umpire checks, and it is not out. Life goes on...

31.6
Amir to Mahmudullah, no run, seams back in from a back of a length, Mahmudullah gets across to defend, half-cocked - and he gets a thick inside edge onto the groin. Ouch! He's going to need some assistance - good thing it's the last ball of the over.

Amir to Shakib, 1 run, fuller and on the pads this time, Shakib shuffes across to clip it to deep square leg
7.4
Amir to Shakib, no run, hits the bat hard this time and forces it off the splice towards the point region. Was on a good length just outside off and got it to kick up a bit off the deck as Shakib tried to work across the line. Got into a real tangle
7.3
Amir to Shakib, no run, fuller and straighter this time, Shakib shuffles across and blocks it out
7.2
Amir to Shakib, no run, slash and a miss! On a good length with a hint of extra bounce as Shakib goes hard on the cut stroke. Probably went too hard at it and also got hustled
7.1
Amir to Shakib, FOUR, more runs! Amir strays in line and feeds it on the pads, exactly where most sub-continental batsmen love and Shakib picks it off with a neat flick through mid-wicket
5.6
Amir to Shakib, 1 run, shortish and outside off, Shakib hangs back and dabs it down to third man to get off the mark
5.5
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, out Caught by Fakhar Zaman!! This is a fine catch! Fakhar at cover-point had to move across to his right quickly and grab this really low, inches above the ground. Did so perfectly. Amir deserved this wicket to be honest with the way he had been troubling Sarkar. Not a wicket-taking delivery as such though, kept it outside off on a length and tempted Sarkar to go for the uppish cut stroke. Fakhar did the rest in the inner ring. Soumya Sarkar c Fakhar Zaman b Amir 22(22) [4s-4]
5.4
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, no run, fuller and closer to off stump, blocked off the front foot to point
5.3
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, no run, short of a length outside off this time, defended off the back foot to cover
5.2
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, this is off the inside half of the blade but it races away well wide of mid-on and all the way to the fence. Sarkar starting to motor along now. This was the in-angler from Amir and the southpaw wanted to probably go straighter but couldn't middle it as well as he wanted. Won't mind the result though
5.1
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, no run, thick inside edge onto the back pad. The knuckle ball from Amir and Sarkar wanted to bludgeon the drive through the covers. Probably early into the stroke
3.6
Amir to Tamim, no run, short of a good length outside off, Tamim punched off the back foot but can't beat extra cover
3.5
Amir to Tamim, no run, fuller and closer to the off pole, defended nicely off the front foot
3.4
Amir to Tamim, no run, edged but doesn't carry! Amir is certainly cranking it up here and getting some movement as well. Tamim's turn to get deceived, as he got a bottom edge on the drive due to the outward shape. Sarfaraz went one-handed to his left but it just bounced in front of him
3.3
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, 1 run, another thick edge but well short of third man! Sarkar is living dangerously here. Chases a wide delivery that's not as full as thought, and goes for a flashy drive. Miscues it completely but doesn't go to hand

3.1
Amir to Tamim, 1 run, fuller and on the pads, worked softly towards mid-wicket for a sharp single

Amir to Soumya Sarkar, no run, another play and a miss! Sarkar clearly all at sea against Amir. Wants to hit himself out of trouble with an expansive cover drive but the away movement does him in
1.5
Amir to Tamim, 1 run, a bit too straight in line, Tamim picks it off with a back foot flick behind square leg. Pakistan are officially eliminated from CWC 2019
1.4
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, 1 run, dropped! Sohail the culprit at first slip and this is a dolly really. Amir might be the unluckiest bowler going around, if we take the count of dropped catches off his bowling in recent years. Fourth stump line on a good length, hint of away shape as Sarkar poked at it. Got a healthy edge that went at a fair height and pace to Sohail who just spilled it
1.3
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, no run, beaten this time! Gets it closer to the off pole and straightens off the deck as Sarkar plays inside the edge
1.2
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, FOUR, just over the infield! There was an initial excitement from Amir but Sarkar gets lucky here. Wanted to drive on the up despite the length not being full enough and mistimed it completely. However, he got enough wood to get it over cover. Races away to the fence
1.1
Amir to Soumya Sarkar, 2 runs, very full but down the leg-side, Sarkar flicks it aerially behind square leg. Good running fetches a brace by the time fine leg gets across
