LBW for review: not out.

"Talking about NRR, did NZ's runrate go down after their win against the Netherlands? It was 2 after the England win and now it's 1.9. How does this work?" So, Jenish, it works like this (I'm told)... So if a team wins Match 1 by 100 and Match 2 by 90 (assuming all innings were of 50 overs); after Match 1 the NRR would be 2 (100/50) and after Match 2 the NRR would be 1.9 (190/100)

27.2 Adil Rashid to Towhid Hridoy, no run, if there wasn't any bat, that looked absolutely plumb. The quicker and straighter delivery from Adil Rashid, got the ball to skid across the turf and hit Hridoy in front of middle. To Hridoy and Banglades's delight, he managed an inside edge and reviewed quite quickly as well...

Appeal for leg before and given out. Towhid Hridoy decides to send it upstairs though. Was there an inside edge on that? UltraEdge shows a spike and he's clearly got an edge there. Not out.

"Seeing the approach, I can say .. batters are convinced also they can't win?" Well, Shaan, they need a partnership if they are going to get anywhere. But the RRR is already approaching 10

Bangladesh Innings
