ICC World Twenty20 2012 – Match 12
Bangladesh v Pakistan
Tue 25 Sep 2012, 03:00pm BST, 07:30pm local
Pakistan win by 8 wickets
| Bangladesh | 175-6 (20 ovs) |
|---|---|
| Pakistan | 178-2 (18.4 ovs) |
Over 19. 7 runs. Bowler: Shafiul Islam. Pakistan: 178/2(rr 9.37)
FOUR! Islam to Akmal. Slower length ball, outside off stump on the back foot driving, well timed in the air under control past long off for 4 runs. Akmal thrashes the 26th boundary of the innings to seal a comfortable Pakistan victory. They bowled and fielded poorly but were in sparkling form with the bat, Nazir in particular taking advantage of some poor bowling on a good wicket. Bangladesh bowled too short and never looked like restricting Pakistan to 139 or less, which means the eight Test teams reach the second stage - this has been a tournament to forget for the lesser teams. Pakistan have a tough Super Eight pool, but they have plenty of batsmen in form and will hope their bowling today was one bad day at the office.
Wide Islam to Akmal. Bouncer, outside off stump no foot movement, left to wicketkeeper for no runs, fielded by Rahim.
