India A vs Bangladesh A Highlights Emerging Asia Cup semis: IND A win by 51 runs, set-up final vs PAK A

OUT! The slower one does the trick for Soumya Sarkar. Hangargekar gave it a mighty heave but didn't get any pace from either the bowler or the pitch. A simple catch at the deep mid-wicket fence. India A 9 down for 199

FOUR! SIX! Hangargekar is no monk with the bat. He can hit those lusty blows and boy has he come to the party. The first one was a boundary over mid-off and the next one was right from the middle of the bat. Tanzim has leaked a lot of runs in the last few overs. This could comeback and haunt Bangladesh A.

India A 194/8 after 45.3 overs. 

RUN OUT! Terrible result for India A. There was an LBW appeal against Manav Suthar but Yash Dhull wanted a quick single. Suthar was a tad late to react but bowler Tanzim wasn't. He picked up the ball and knocked the stumps down. A crucial wicket as India A was just trying to crawl their way back into the contest.

India A 178/7 after 43.5 overs.

Slightly short, Yash Dhull rocks back and cuts to the right of the point fielder and gets back for a couple to bring up his fifty. An excellent knock under pressure by the India A captain. He gets there off 65 balls. Another good over for India A, 10 runs from it.

India A 172/7 in 43 overs

11 runs off the over, a much-needed one for India A. Two boundaries coming, one from Yash Dhull, another one from Manav Suthar. Is it the sign of things to come for India A?

India A 162/7 after 42 overs.

FOUR! Good shot from Manav Suthar. It was slightly short from Mahmudul Hasan Joy and Suthar went deep inside his crease to pull it over mid-wicket and there was no one patrolling the boundary there. 150 up for India A. Can they cross 200?

India A151/7 after 41 overs

 A couple of balls after hitting a six, Harshit Rana tried to repeat the same with a big heap against off-spinner Shak Mahedi  Hasan but ended up top edging it to long-off where Tanzim Hasan Sakib took a juggling catch.

India A 137/7 after 37 overs

FOUR! Take that says Yash Dhull. Full and straight from Ripon Mondal, Dhull gets a decent stride in and punches the ball straight as an arrow for a welcome boundary. And then holds the pose. India A need more of those from their captain if they want to get to 200 here.

India A 131/6 after 36 overs. 

OUT! Another one bites the dust. This time, it's Dhruv Jurel. Mahedi Hasan got one to slightly straighten and hit Jurel's pads. A big appeal and after a long pause, the umpire raised his finger slowly. India A in all sorts of trouble now

India A 121/6 after 32.3 overs

OUT! Riyan Parag drags it back onto his stumps and Tanzim Hasan Sakib is elated. The drive on the up was never going to be a good option on a track which is slow and Parag pays the price. He was rooted to the crease, tried to swat the ball with his hands but got an inside edge back onto his stumps. 9th wicket in the tournament for Tanzim. He is now the highest wicket-taker of this tournament.

India A 118/5 after 31.2 overs

SIX! Riyan Parag has had enough of prodding and nudging. He picked up the length early and pulled it on the front foot and it sails over the deep mid-wicket boundary. This is what he can do Parag, just needs to bide his time here. 

India A 112/4 after 29.3 overs.

Superb stuff! A maiden by Saif Hasan to finish his quota of 10 overs. The Bangladesh A captain has figures of 1 for 29. And he has been one of the major reasons why it has been hard going for the India A batters.

India A 105/4 after 29 overs

Yash Dhull charges down the track, doesn't get to the pitch of the ball but somehow manages to flick it towards fine leg for a couple. This brings up the 100 for India A in 26.2 overs. 

OUT! A dreadful shot from Nishant Sindhu! But credit must be given to Rakibul for keeping the pressure on and giving nothing away. It was too full to get underneath, Sindhu went for the slog sweep but didn't manage to get enough on it. A good catch at long on by Tanzid Hasan.

India 91/4 after 23.2 overs

OUT! Rakibul gets the massive wicket of Abhishek Sharma for 34. Two wickets in quick succession for Bangladesh A. Rakibul played with Abhishek's patience there. Tossed one up, Abhishek charged down the track to get a big one, lost his shape a bit and ended up providing a simple catch to long off.

India A in a spot of bother at 79/3 after 19.5 overs

OUT! Bangladesh A captain Saif Hasan gets the wicket of Nikin Jose for 17. It's a soft dismissal. This was always on the cards due to the kind of pressure Bangladesh had exerted on India. First delivery after the drinks break, Jose tried to work the ball towards the on-side, it stopped on him a bit and he chipped it straight to the mid-wicket fielder.

India A 75/2 after 18.1 overs

Bangladesh spinners Saif Hasan, and Rakibul have managed to keep the scoring rate under check so far. It has been a struggle for Abhishek Sharma and Nikin Jose so far but the good thing for India A is that they haven't lost many wickets.

India A 75/1 in 18 overs

SIX! Abhishek Sharma had to do something. There was too much pressure applied by the Bangladesh spinners and the India A batter breaks the shackles in style. He slog sweeps Rakibul's flighted delivery over the ropes. 

India 62/1 after 16 overs

Nikin Jose survives! But what exactly happened there? The Bangladesh players started to celebrate, thinking that the umpire had ruled it in their favour but when the lights turned green from red in a matter of seconds, leaving the Bangladesh fielders totally bemused.

Rakibul beat Jose on the outside edge. He seemed to have dragged his backfoot outside outside the crease and when he attempted to bring it back, it was in the air. But was it still in the air when the Bangladesh A keeper dislodged the bails? That's the call the third umpire had to make and he ruled it in Jose's favour.

India A 48/1 after 14 overs

FOUR! Wow! Nikin Jose says ‘hello’. Tanzim misses his line and length, pitches it short and wide and Jose stands tall to smash it through the off-side. The sound from the bat was enough to send a signal. And that's the end of the powerplay.

India A 38/1 after 10 overs.

OUT! Edged and taken! Tanzim Hasan Sakib gets the big wicket of Sai Sudharsan for 21. It was short and wide but Sakib got some extra bounce which brought about the downfall of Sudharsan, who only managed to get an outside edge to the keeper.

India A 29/1 in 8 overs

Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Bangladesh A's highest wicket-taker in this tournament with 7 scalps, is into the attack. It will be interesting to see how this right-arm pacer bowls against the two attacking Indian left-hand openers.

FOUR! Not as convincing as the other ones but Sudharsan will take it. It was slightly uppish but the ball bounced in front of the mid-off fielder and beat him. Sudharsan is once off to a flier. A boundary to the end of the 6th over.

India A 27/0 after 6 overs

Back-to-back FOURS! Frame them! Everything right about those two shots from Sai Sudharsan. Mahedi overpitched ever so slightly on the first occasions and Sudharsan played a silky on-drive. When Mahedi pulled his length back, Sudharsan rocked back and used his lovely wrists to flick it past short mid-wicket.

India A 22/0 after 5 overs

FOUR! Terrific shot from Abhishek Sharma. A length delivery outside off stump, he stood tall, got on top of the ball and punched it through the covers. There was no stopping that one. First boundary of the match, this should get the attacking left-hander going.

India A 12/0 after 3.4 overs
