"This is not the closest they've come to victory, but when they got 318 on the board they must have felt they had an even chance."

It's slipping away from Scotland even more - Josh Davey's yorker off radar and Sabbir helps himself to four backward of square. The same batsman then hammers a full toss through the off side for another boundary to bring up the 50 partnership off 45 balls. Preston Mommsen looks to the skies for inspiration. His side look out for the count now.

The Flower of Scotland is prominent on the associate nation's kit, forming the team emblem on both shirts and trousers. It's wilting a little now though as the Tigers begin to run rampant in the late afternoon sunshine. Iain Wardlaw comes back and bowls full, it's the best he's been all day. Just four from the over.

"Bangladesh must have been a bit nervous at the interval after Scotland made 300, but their big players have made a contribution today."

Andrew Morris:, external Same as Afghanistan match, Scotland ruing the lack of strike and/or tight bowlers... they release pressure too easily.

Josh Davey, the second highest wicket-taker in the World Cup, is brought back by an increasingly-desperate Scotland. It must be chastening to see the high of posting 300 eclipsed by a team nudging, nurdling and blasting their way past the target with plenty of wickets and balls to spare. It happened to England against Sri Lanka, and it looks to be happening to another British team here.

Shakib is making hay now - clearing his front leg and clattering another six over wide mid-on. What a shot.

Scotland skipper Preston Mommsen, whose beard appears to be growing bushier by the over, looks a worried man now. Especially after a six from the bat of Sabbir sails over long-on's head. That's a catch for those on the cherry-pickers.

"With one wicket, this can turn round, especially if they get Shakib, who is the helmsman. I don't know how they're going to get him out, but he can get out..."

Shakib wants to get this over and done with. He pulls Ali Evans for four and then takes a single. Sabbir joins in the carnage by whacking six over cow corner. That changes the momentum.

Shakib is the man to see Bangladesh over the line, and he's desperate to get on strike and relieve the nervous Sabbir. When he does face up to Majid Haq, he surprisingly just pushes a single to mid-on. Five from the over.

Test Match Special commentary

The nerves are starting to permeate through the Bangladesh line-up. From looking like they'd coast over the line and be smoking cigars with their feet up by 45 overs, they are now struggling to find their next run - which comes when Sabbir fortuitously edges Ali Evans through the vacant slip region for four.

Sabbir, with an ODI best of 53, is the new batsman and some smart fielding by Majid Haq off his own bowling stops the right hander getting off the mark from the first delivery he faces. Five dots and then the fielders push back to offer the new man a single which he duly takes.

A gladiatorial roar comes from tall fast bowler Ali Evans as Calum MacLeod holds his nerve to catch a steepler from the bat of dangerman Mushfiqur at long-on. Game on?

Former Bangladesh cricketer Athar Ali Khan on TMS: "It's been a fine innings from Mushfiqur. He packs a punch, is a sweet timer of the ball and it is good to see him come up the order as well."

Just waking up in Scotland? Let me bring you up to date. In a nutshell, your team reached 318-8 thanks to Kyle Coetzer's amazing 156. However, Bangladesh are making light work of the chase so far and now need less than 100 runs to pick up their second win of the tournament.

Iain Wardlaw continues to be expensive - Mushfiqur bringing up his half-century off 38 balls with a six over extra cover. He then carves four over point. What a great display of batting. He's enjoying it as he punches the air and smiles to himself. Fifteen from the over.

Bruce Oxenford waves his arms about, meaning we're into the batting powerplay. There's instantly more urgency from the batsmen as they put the fielders under pressure with sharp running between the wickets. On the sidelines, Anamul Haque sits with a lot of strapping on his injured right shoulder. He's had a painful day, and is likely to be ruled out of the rest of the tournament. Shakib's four through mid-wicket makes it 10 from the over.

Mushfiqur almost perishes in similar style to a couple of the Scotland batsmen as he offers up a leading edge to a ball which sticks in the pitch and the bowler, Matt Machan, can't quite take a diving caught and bowled. The little batsman responds by driving the next ball through the off side for four.

"Bangladesh, playing in their 29th World Cup match, have endured the longest wait for a first individual 100.

"Sri Lanka's first World Cup 100 came in their 27th match (Aravinda de Silva's 145 v Kenya at Kandy in 1996)."
