He continuously troubled both Mominul and Mahmudullah for a considerable period of time with his out-swingers.
After bowling a number of out-swingers, he got one to come back sharply into Mahmudullah, which trapped him in-front. India went for a DRS but it was an Umpires’ Call despite the delivery grazing the leg stump.
But Umesh didn’t lose heart and left-hander Mominul got a fuller delivery that came in after pitching. The umpire promptly adjudged leg before and the batsman didn’t even take a review.
It was a testimony to Umesh’s stamina that his pace never dropped during the nine overs that he bowled in the morning.
Mahmudullah and Shakib Al Hasan (29 batting) then added 45 runs during and also got their share of streaky boundaries in between.
But right-hander Mahmudullah was never in control during his stay. When Umesh was bowling, it was Jadeja bowling from the ‘pavilion end’ and often the ODI specialist would rush to meet the quicker deliveries from Jadeja.
Once Kohli decided to rest Umesh and Jadeja, he introduced Ishant (1/38) and Ashwin from either ends.
