Nawaz was dismissed after he failed to read the slower ball bowled by Tanzim. As a result, he only managed to chip the ball in the air towards third man. Zakir Hasan had no problem in completing the simple catch.

After dismissing Nawaz, Tanzim was seen giving a send-off to the left-handed batter. The two then barged shoulders with each other as tempers flared in the middle.

Nawaz was seen charging back towards the Bangladesh pacer, and it was then that the umpires and other players stepped in to prevent the situation from escalating further.
