0.4 Mashrafe Mortaza to Thirimanne, no run, dropped him. A dream start ruined. Easy catch from Bijoy at first slip. He has another waft at a wide length ball, and this time gets the edge. Bijoy is wide at first slip, it has come straight down his lap, at a comfortable waist height. Just doesn't see it all the way in. Has three grabs at it, but grasses it
32.6 Taskin Ahmed to Sangakkara, no run, dropped. Solid attempt in the follow-through but he has failed to hold on. This has stopped on Sanga, and has lobbed in front of Taskin. He stops in the follow-through and then lunges forward
40.5 Shakib Al Hasan to Dilshan, 2 runs, the hundred is up through an inside edge. He jumps outside the crease, is beaten in the flight, but gets an inside edge fine of short fine leg. Century No. 21. Looks up at the skies in gratitude. Valuable player
41.1 Rubel Hossain to Sangakkara, 3 runs, another drop. Bangladesh have been fielding poorly. the whole system has broken down. Cut straight to Mominul at point, who has dropped a sitter by international standards. Then he throws at the bowler's end in frustration. The bowler doesn't know a throw is coming, and the long-on has turned his back ton the game. Almost four overthrows a couple of yards to the right of a fielder. Poor stuff
49.1 Taskin Ahmed to Sangakkara, 1 run, there it is. Sanga's fastest hundred. In his 400th ODI. Driven hard down to long-off for the single. 35,000 at MCG are on their feet. Sanga is congratulated by Dilshan, and they go back to business
0.2 Malinga to Tamim Iqbal, OUT, bowled him, that went right through him! What a delivery from the man! It pitched around length outside off, it had swing, it drew Tamim forward and it found the gap between bat and pad to know the off stump over. Tamim looks back at his stumps in disbelief, gone for a duck Tamim Iqbal b Malinga 0 (1m 2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
5.5 Mathews to Soumya Sarkar, OUT, he also strikes in his first over! This delivery was angled across the batsman well outside off, Soumya chased without any footwork and edged it for the keeper Soumya Sarkar c †Sangakkara b Mathews 25 (26m 15b 5x4 0x6) SR: 166.66
6.2 Lakmal to Mominul Haque, OUT, he goes this time, caught at slip! Outside the off stump, Mominul chases to get a thick outside edge to first slip where Jayawardene, standing slightly straight, takes a low catch near his knees Mominul Haque c Jayawardene b Lakmal 1 (5m 3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 33.33
31.5 Dilshan to Shakib Al Hasan, OUT, Malinga gets another bite at the cherry, and it's the bigger wicket this time, that of Shakib. Bangladesh's best player charges down the wicket, the ball stops on him a touch, and he ends up playing a check drive, which settles in Malinga's lap at long-on Shakib Al Hasan c Malinga b Dilshan 46 (57m 59b 4x4 1x6) SR: 77.96
40.2 Lakmal to Mushfiqur Rahim, OUT, got 'im, bowled! Slower ball on middle and leg, Mushfiqur made room but didn't know Lakmal had run his fingers over this ball and was beaten by its pace after exposing his stumps Mushfiqur Rahim b Lakmal 36 (74m 39b 2x4 1x6) SR: 92.30
