K Yadav to M Mortaza, OUT! Kuldeep has bamboozled Mortaza completely to get a 3-fer! Classic deception to get rid of the Bangladesh skipper. He spots Mortaza using his feet and hence, bowls a googly on a flatter trajectory and it is outside off as well. It spins a long way away as Mashrafe swings wildly across the line probably not picking the wrong one. He ends up missing it completely. Dhoni behind does the rest, he will affect such stumpings in his sleep too. Another achievement regarding which MS will be proud of as this is his 800th dismissal in international cricket. India keep on chipping away at the wickets. Can they bowl out Bangladesh before their allotted quota of overs?

K Yadav to L Das, OUT! Superb work from MS Dhoni! Kuldeep bowls the wrong 'un around off, Das doesn't pick it up as he comes forward to block. Is beaten past the outside edge and his back leg drags out of the crease. Now, seeing this, and given how quick Dhoni is with the gloves, is a dangerous thing. MS whips the bails off and it's taken upstairs. Though, the Indian keeper signals it took him an extra second than usual due to the extra bounce. Anyway, the TV umpire has several looks at it. From different angles the foot seems to be behind the line, but from the stump cam it looks like the foot is on the line. But, it's signalled out eventually. Strange, as when one looks at it so many times, the benefit of the doubt is usually given to the batsman. Just something out of the ordinary from the usual norm. In any case, a wonderful knock from Liton Das comes to an end. Maybe just at the wrong time. Also, with this, Dhoni becomes the keeper with the most stumpings in Asia Cup, overtaking Kumar Sangakkara.

19:43 (IST) Sep 28

Lightning quick hands from Dhoni and a referral for a stumping has gone upstairs. Touch and go from the looks of it. Let's see...
