India have pulled back things in control as Umar Akmal fell to Mohammed Shami in the 18th over of their ICC World T20 2014 Group 2 match at Dhaka against Pakistan.
Umar Akmal was caught by Suresh Raina off Shami for 33 off 30.
This was after Shoaib Malik fell after scoring 18 off 20 balls against India. Pakistan reached 104 for five after 18 overs.
Malik danced down once again to hit Amit Mishra, but found Suresh Raina at the long-off position.
Malik and Umar Akmal led Pakistan’s revival, adding 50 runs for the fourth wicket.
Earlier, Malik danced down the track to hit Amit Mishra for a six to shrug off the pressure created by the Indian bowlers, after Ahmed Shehzad was stumped off the leg-spinner.
Pakistan were dented by a few wickets, but then Shoaib Malik and Umar Akmal have helped release the pressure with a few big shots.
Yuvraj Singh came to bowl the eleventh over and he was hit for 13 runs, which included two boundaries. One of the boundaries was a misfield by Bhuvneshwar Kumar at mid-wicket.
