Bangladesh innings (20 overs maximum)		R	M	B	4s	6s	SR
Tamim Iqbal	c Smith b Pollock	8	9	7	2	0	114.28
2.1 rush of blood but it doesn't pay off, Tamim advances down the track after backing away to the leg side, tries to loft over mid-off but the doesnt get the distance and elevation, Smith runs backwards and takes it easily 24/2
Nazimuddin	lbw b Ntini	0	4	1	0	0	0.00
1.1 loud appeal and given! full and drifting in on the pads, Nazimuddin shuffles just a touch, tries to work it to the on side, is a little late getting his bat down, strikes him in front of leg stump 8/1
Aftab Ahmed	b M Morkel	36	15	14	5	2	257.14
4.2 Timber! pacy delivery on off stump, curving in, Aftab goes for a hoick across the line, misses it completely and the off stump goes back a few yards, Bangladesh just losing the plot here, someone needs to settle down 58/4
Mohammad Ashraful*	c Smith b Pollock	10	3	3	1	1	333.33
2.4 Pollock wins this argument! good length on off stump, Ashraful goes for the loft over the bowler's head, mistimes it, gets a top edge and Smith at mid-on runs to his left and takes it 34/3
Shakib Al Hasan	run out (Duminy)	19	22	14	3	0	135.71
7.2 from van der Wath, superb stuff from JP Duminy! Shakib pushes it to mid-off with soft hands, sets off for a run, Duminy gathers the ball, flings himself forward and flicks it mid-air to the stumps at the non strikers end, Shakib dives but he's a couple of yards too short 77/5
Alok Kapali	c de Villiers b M Morkel	14	45	35	0	0	40.00
15.3 Another one bites the dust. Banged in short, at the body, Kapali swivels ever so slowly and shapes for the pull shot but the ball bursts on quickly, collides with the top edge and lobs up towards de Villiers 119/7
Mashrafe Mortaza	c Duminy b Philander	12	13	8	0	2	150.00
10.4 Stunner from Duminy. Mortaza plays another one of his tennis forehand drives - backing away to the leg-side - and ends up scooping it up over extra cover. Duminy rushes back and dives to hold on to a very difficult chance 101/6
Farhad Reza	c Kemp b Philander	19	24	21	0	2	90.47
17.2 Six and then out. Again tries to flat bat a short-of-length delivery over the bowler's head, gets a top edge to mid-off where Philanders back pedals to take the catch behind his head. 131/8
Mushfiqur Rahim†	c Pollock b van der Wath	4	12	6	0	0	66.66
18.3 short in length, on the off stump line, Rahim swat-pulls it high towards deep midwicket where Pollock moves to his left to take a smart catch 134/9
Abdur Razzak	not out	2	10	6	0	0	33.33

Syed Rasel	b Pollock	6	5	3	1	0	200.00
19.3 yorker gets him. Homing in on the base of the off stump, Razzak has a stab at it but can't prevent the ball from crashing into the off stump. Bangladesh have been restricted to 144 144/10
