Arshfaul's bowling is better than his batting these days. Sad, because in form he was a class batsman.

Mohammad Ashraful to White, OUT, Ashraful is dancing again! You'd think he's just won the tournament. As it is he snared White who played back to a ball he should have got forward to. Hung his bat out in defence and it spun back past the inside edge onto off stump
