Shaheen Afridi to Shamim Hossain, out Caught by Hussain Talat!! Off the toe-end and loops to backward point. Simple catch and that should be curtains for Bangladesh. Shamim Hossain was their main hope and the back of the hand slower-ball deceives him, he is through the reverse-hit too early, that's why it hits the toe-end and loops to backward point. Hesson is all smiles as he claps from the watching area and Shaheen Afridi seems to acknowledge him. Maybe it was a plan that came to fruition.
