Bangladesh look all set to seal this game. They are 8 wickets away and have 2 days to get Afghanistan bowled out. They would love to do so as quickly as possible. Afghanistan on the other hand, will want to drag the game as much as possible. They showed some fight towards the end of the day on Day 3, can they continue that?

...DAY 4, SESSION 1...

The light meter is out. The umpires feel it is not good enough and that will be Stumps. So, Bangladesh have managed to scalp two wickets. It is going as per their plan. Afghanistan, after a tiring job with the ball, have a massive task upon them. Day 3 started with Najmul Hossain Shanto out there along with Hasan. Both teed off the freebies dearly. Najmul Hossain Shanto went onto score his second century while Hasan got run out as he was looking for a big score. Bangladesh at that time had enough lead, certainly good enough to challenge the visitors but Litton Das had other things on his mind. He wanted his other batters to get some runs. The skipper got to his fifty but it was Mominul Haque's excellent century that took the news. Afghanistan need 617 runs to win. A big task. A big Day 4 is coming up your way.
