Over 18: 4 runs and two wicket. Aus 152/7

Over 17: 13 runs and a wicket off the over. Aus 148/5

Over 16: 14 runs off the over. Aus 135/4

Over 15: 2 runs and a wicket off the over. Aus 121/4

14.2 Shakib Al Hasan to Warner, OUT

It was lobbed up by Shakib, on leg stump. Warner was making room, perhaps thinking about only a single. But seeing such a bad ball, he thought he should do more. Went for a flick but hit it right back at the bowler

Over 14: 4 runs and a wicket off the over. Aus 119/3

13.1 Al-Amin Hossain to Khawaja, OUT

The change of bowling works, and Bangladesh will feel hopeful again. Khawaja though walks back after a fine innings, even if it ended in ungainly fashion. The ball was on his pads and he was hoping to work it away past short fine leg.

Over 13: 17 runs off the over. Aus 115/2

Over 12: 4 runs and a wicket off the over. Aus 98/2

11.3 Mustafizur Rahman to Smith, OUT

Smith was moving across again, but Mustafiz does him in with a really full delivery on middle and leg. A panic-stricken flick, an inside edge and a deflection off the pads later, everyone sees red.

Over 11: 12 runs off the over. Aus 94/1

Over 10: 8 runs off the over. Aus 82/1

Over 9: 9 runs off the over. Aus 74/1

Over 8: 6 runs and a wicket in the over. Aus 66/1

7.2 Shuvagata Hom to Watson, 1 run, OUT

It was short, it was given its due treatment, but the batsmen get greedy. Watson comes back for a second, and he was always struggling. Sabbir sends in a rocket throw from deep midwicket and Mushfiqur does the rest.

Over 7: 9 runs off the over. Aus 60/0

Over 6: 7 runs off the over. Aus 51/0

Over 5: 13 runs off the over. Aus 44/0

Over 4: 7 runs off the over. Aus 31/0

Over 3: 10 runs off the over. Aus 24/0

Over 2: 5 runs off the over. Aus 14/0

Over 1: 9 runs off the over. Aus 9/0
