6.6
Mashrafe Mortaza to Dhawan, no run, stays back and taps the good length ball back to the bowler, the crowd cheers the dot
6.5
Mashrafe Mortaza to Kohli, 1 run, tucked off the pads behind square to bring up the 50 stand off 32 balls
6.4
Mashrafe Mortaza to Kohli, FOUR, Kohli seems to have a mental map of this field, he glances the length ball off his pads, placing it in front of the fielder running to his left from fine leg and diving in vain, the timing is perfect
6.3
Mashrafe Mortaza to Dhawan, 1 run, stays back and pulls the length ball through square leg, India motor past fifty
6.2
Mashrafe Mortaza to Dhawan, no run, Mortaza cuts the ball away from Dhawan after pitching on a good length around middle and off, he pokes from his crease and is beaten
 

Raff: "Bangladesh simply must get Kohli out soon: the man has proven time and again he's a match-winner. He has half-centuries against every team he's faced (except Zimbabwe, against whom his one inning was a 21-ball 26-not-out). Bangladesh can't afford to give him 60 off of 45."

 
6.1
Mashrafe Mortaza to Kohli, 1 run, the bounce gets a bit big outside off and Kohli swats it awkwardly towards third man
 

Nitin Chaudhary: "Saw this in your placard,"79.66, Virat Kohli's average while chasing in T20Is, before this match - best among all batsmen with 500+ runs when chasing. He averages just 35.88 when batting first" Just 35.88???" Well, everything is relative.
