West Indies vs Bangladesh, 2nd ODI at Providence, , Jul 25 2018 - Ball by Ball Commentary

10.25pm One can only imagine how Mushfiqur Rahim must be feeling right now. He played a top knock that put his team on the brink of a win that would've sealed the series. But then, he perished at the last hurdle. Looking to heave away a full toss. Caught at deep midwicket. Shades of that World T20 clash against India. Shades of what happened against Afghanistan in India. At least the third time that he's had to endure heartbreak after coming so close. Each of those dismissals ended in catches to deep midwicket, and each of them to full tosses.

But to put this down to Mushfiqur alone would be unfair. Bangladesh had numerous chances to seal this. They were cruising at over 10 an over until the seventh over. They had nine wickets in hand. And then began an irreparable slowdown. Tamim Iqbal ate up 85 balls for his 54. In no time, the run rate halved, going from 10 to 5. They didn't bother to rotate the strike. The pressure built up. But they recovered well enough from that, and with Mahmudullah and Mushfiqur at the crease, it was still their game to lose. And then miscommunication sent back Mahmudullah, before finally, Mushfiqur perished. You don't get more chances than that to win a game. Bangladesh will introspect on this game well into the night. But they have one more chance to bounce back, as the teams head into the decider, and put the debacle of the Test series defeat behind them.

Shimron Hetmyer is the Man of the Match for his blistering century. That brings us to the end of this match's coverage then. If you missed it, Mohammad Isam's report should be up shortly, so head over there. But from here, it's goodbye from Shashank Kishore and myself. Thanks for joining us.

Holder is vigorously wiping the ball. Must be so hard gripping it. Five needed.

Six off two needed. Tension all around.

Divy: "Suddenly memories of Ms Dhoni taking off his gloves in my eyes. Game on!"

Holder to shoulder the responsibility of the last over. He has gone at nearly seven an over so far. And he has exactly seven to defend.

The dew has taken full effect. Gripping the ball is increasingly harder. This is Bangladesh's game to lose now. Fourteen required off the last two.

Stuart: "If only Narine was available for selection, this would have been game on. Bangladesh knew they could just stay in and take on the quick bowlers "

Gkm: "Good morning from india. Switched on the tv and the first visuals i saw were of gayle dropping a dolly. Has it become a thumb rule to select gayle? There are so many youngsters going around. This is an era of good fielding and fitness. And bangladeshi seniors have finally stepped up. Mushfiqur is one player who can walk into any team right now"

Ten off that over. Nine needed off each of the last three. Gripping.
