The Sportskeeda coverage for the India vs UAE match starts at 6 PM IST tomorrow! We hope to have your company for that! See you tomorrow, folks! Goodbye and Goodnight! So, the big final is all set to be played between India and Bangladesh on March 6! But that's not the only game that's left in the tournament. India take on UAE in a dead rubber tomorrow and Pakistan take on Sri Lanka in another game on March 4. "It's a big match for us, just like a semi-final," says Mortaza. "We coped up with the pressure nicely, and that helped us in the games," he adds. He also thanks the crowd for their support! Soumya Sarkar is the Man of the Match for this game who played a crucial knock of 48 (48)! "We keep repeating our mistakes again and again, it was not a good total, still 20 runs short," says Shahid Afridi during the post-match presentation. "We'll focus on the World T20 now," he adds. Time for post-match presentation! Credits must not be taken away, however, from Soumya Sarkar, who played a match-winning innings of 48, and Mahmudullah's finishing cameo of 22 (15). Mortaza's two boundaries in the 19th over must not be forgotten either! The 19th over by Sami that cost Pakistan 15 runs made all the difference. Sami committed a crime by bowling not one but two no-balls and gave away the match thne and there. A beautiful game for some (read Bangladesh), a night to forget for some (read Sami).- Harsha Bhogle (@bhogleharsha) Excellent performance by Bangladesh. They are through to their second Asia Cup final where they meet India on March 6. "We kept wickets in hand and Soumya Sarkar played a crucial knock. That made the difference," says Mahmudullah. 19.1 Ali to Mahmudullah, FOUR! Mahmudullah finishes it for his side. Length ball, and dispatched over midwicket for four! Another historic win for Bangladesh! They had beaten Sri Lanka, and now, they have beaten Pakistan, and are in their 2nd Asia Cup final. How darn good is Mahmudullah under pressure? Sorry Shakib, Mushfiqur, think he's snatched the baton ... Sensational win - jatin sapru (@jatinsapru) Anwar Ali has three to defend from the last over! 18.6 FREE HIT! Sami to Mahmudullah, one run, played over midwicket! Was played in the air but fell short of fielder at deep midwicket! 18.6 Sami to Mahmudullah, NO BALL! FOUR! What has Sami done? He has bowled another no-ball, which Mahmudullah carves between point and gully for a four! Has Sami given it away in this over? 18.5 Sami to Mahmudullah, 2 runs, hit down the ground in the gap between long off and long on 18.4 Sami to Mortaza, FREE HIT! one run, full ball, fielded at point! 18.4 Sami to Mortaza, NO BALL! Mortaza hits it over mid off, long off takes it, and celebrates (unaware of the no-ball) by throwing the ball up in the air. Meanwhile, Mortaza had seen the umpire signalling the no ball, and calls his partner back for two! Full drama! Pakistanis wait for the ball thrown up in the air to come down, and by the time it came down, Bangladesh had already collected two! 18.3 Sami to Mahmudullah, 1 run, yorker on leg stump, Mahmudullah somehow squeezes a single out of it by playing it towards covers 18.2 Sami to Mortaza, 1 run, full and straight, Mortaza hits it towards long off 18.1 Sami to Mahmudullah, 1 run, played towards long-on Mohammad Sami to bowl the penultimate over! He would look to make up for the misfield in the last over! 17.6 Amir to Mortaza, no run, full and wide, Mortaza misses who had backed away too far outside leg. Dot ball again! 17.5 Amir to Mortaza, no run, full and wide, Mortaza misses who had backed away too far outside leg. Dot ball! 17.4 Amir to Mortaza, FOUR! Two in two! Is this the game changer? Short ball, Mortaza just gets a bat to it and the ball flies over the fine leg area that is vacant for another four! Mortaza is the new man! 17.3 Amir to Mortaza, FOUR! What a shot by the captain, Mortaza smashes it straight and Mohammad Sami misses the ball at mid-off. Crucial boundary! 17.2 Amir to Shakib, OUT! Amir has delivered whenever it has mattered! He does it again! Full and straight once again, Shakib tries the ramp for the second time and misses, and the ball crashes into the stumps! Game on now! Amir has brought Pakistan back! 17.1 Amir to Shakib, no run, brilliant bowling, a yorker on leg stump. Shakib can do nothing about it Amir is back! He holds all the cards for Pakistan now! 16.6 Irfan to Mahmudullah, no run, beats the outside edge, a good ball to finish a good over for Bangladesh 16.5 Irfan to Shakib, 1 run, risky single. Shakib attempts the ramp shot, misses it, the ball strikes him on the pads and drops dead. Batsmen run, Irfan runs, but Mahmudullah reaches the crease before Irfan could knock over the bails! 16.4 Irfan to Mahmudullah, from around the wicket, 1 run, Mahmudullah cuts it in between point and backward point, towards the deep 16.3 Irfan to Mahmudullah, no run, played towards point 16.2 Irfan to Mahmudullah, SIX! Big shot! Pressure released! Mahmudullah the finisher! Short and wide, Mahmudullah heaves it over extra cover and clears the ropes with some margin! 16.1 Irfan to Shakib, 35 needed off 24, 1 run, played towards third man behind slips. Seems to be Shakib's favoutire area Mohammad Irfan to bowl now! 15.6 Sami to Mahmudullah, no run, struck on the pads, Sami appeals, but there was an inside edge. Good over by Sami, this! 15.5 Sami to Shakib, 1 run, same ball same shot, just a little less fine. Hence, it's just a single! 15.4 Sami to Shakib, 2 runs, played it fine towards the third man behind slips. Good running! 15.3 Sami to Mahmudullah, 1 run, quick single, dabbed into the ground and he runs across for a single before the cover fielder can get to it 15.2 Sami to Shakib, one run, makes room, and drives it through extra cover for a single 15.1 Sami to Shakib, no run, beats the outisde edge of Shakib Mohammad Sami is back! 14.6 Malik to Mahmudullah, no run 14.5 Malik to Mahmudullah, no run, defended towards the bowler 14.4 Malik to Shakib, one run, played towards long-off 14.3 Malik to Mahmudullah, one run, played towards short fine leg Mahmudullah is the new man! 14.2 Malik to Rahim, OUT! The change has worked! Straight ball from around the wicket, Rahim tried the reverse sweep but missed. The ball strikes him in front of middle and leg, and the umpire, finally, gives one in Pakistan's favour! Load More LIVE CHAT 1 Logout No Results Found
