slower ball on leg stump, and Chatara finishes with a six. Simply whips it away, times that so well that it disappears over the boundary to the right of the deep midwicket fielder

8.40pm That's it from all of us. Another big win for Bangladesh, they take a 4-0 lead. Can they make it 5-0, or can Zimbabwe take some of the positives from this game forward and finally win a game on this tour? Be sure to join us for the fifth ODI, and keep sending in your comments. Until then, bye!
Manjur: "Abul Hasan's wicketless journey continues."
8.35pm Presentation time. First up, Elton Chigumbura: "It's always disappointing to lose a game. Taylor and Mire played fantastic, but both went out at the wrong time, just before the powerplay. We had some other positives. The way we bowled at the start, but after four wickets we didn't manage to put more pressure on Mushfiq and Mahmudullah and that's the partnership that took the game away from us. It was a good score to chase down, the way we batted in the middle period, but we lost those two and it's always hard for the guys coming in at six and seven."
Mashrafe Mortaza: "There is no dew, that's why we chose to bat. The way Mahmudullah and Mushfiq batted was brilliant, we came back into the game and the bowlers bowled very well after that. That's my job, to get some runs for the team, and I think I did well today. Jubair is our main bowler, it was his first match and we had to back him. He did well."
Mahmudullah is the man of the match: "The wicket wasn't that good, but Mushy and I did well. He came in and attacked and I was playing the anchor role. We can play the situations now, and that's the important thing, and we are gaining some experience as well."
HDS: "No Arafat Sunny today, so Zimbabwe tail managing to stay till last ball!!!"
Mick: "for the casual score checker they will see result and think this game was a close one but in reality it wasn't close. Zim should of won the game easily from a very dominate position after 30 overs..but alas after the sixth wicket fell so did any chance Zim had of winning. Awful "
8.25pm Bangladesh have won by 21 runs, very comfortably in the end, but Zimbabwe came closer to winning a game than they had at any previous point on this tour. Excellent partnership between Taylor and Mire, but once both were dismissed in quick succession, the game simply meandered to the expected finish.
another slower ball outside off, another slog and miss
down the track, it's another slower ball, and he slogs and misses
down the track, it's the slower ball outside off. Meets it on the full and slaps it to cover
full on off stump, swiped away to deep square leg
slower ball outside off. He makes room initially to swipe over the leg side, and then it turns away from off stump and he just looks at the ball bewildered as it rolls away to the keeper
All Zimbabwe need now are five sixes
waist-high full-toss on off stump, slapped to mid-off
down the track, he follows him with the short ball, and he semi-fends, semi-hooks, and mostly periscopes it away to the long-leg boundary
full on middle stump. Makes room and drives straight to mid-off
down the track now, he bowls the slower one outside off, and he clubs it down to long-on
slower bouncer outside off. Makes room first, then tries to reach over and uppercut, can't connect again
short ball, goes for the pull, can't connect
full on the stumps, flicked towards deep midwicket
back of a length outside off, dabbed towards point
loopy delivery wide outside off. Goes for the slog over the leg side, can't connect
skips down the track and he shortens his length a bit, ends up blocking in an ungainly way, back to the bowler
tossed up outside off, swiped towards deep midwicket
gone! Pushed it towards point and went for the quick single. Hit it straight to the fielder but the desire to bring Moor on strike was a more pressing factor than the feasibility of the single. Throw came in, keeper whipped the bails off, and Moor was nowhere near his crease
back of a length on off stump, shuffles across and blocks it towards point
slower ball outside off, slapped to point
