I see nothing wrong in the way that Sakib got out, except that in the previous scene I saw him being 'tired' and the shot looked like he was frustrated. Perhaps if I hadn't seen the previous scene when he was tired, I wouldn't have any problem in the end. This is T20.
However, even though I'm thankful to Ashraful for playing a long innings, some of his shot selection was absolutely ridiculous. The way he got out, that shot he could have easily played down to fine leg without trying to do the trick shot that he was trying to do. Trick shots are never controllable. And for a batsman of his caliber, these trick shots are simply unnecessary. The sixes he had hit over the covers were simply amazing. And I just can't believe that it's the same batsman who got out on that poor shot. The keeper didn't even have to move - Ashraful gave it to him.
At that point the match was already over. Both Sakib and Ashraful should have known that. They probably did. And they needed accelerate. So I guess, end of the day, it's all about the situation. It was an enjoyable game, which wasn't one sided. That's the only takeaway.

Shakib had to go for it, You can't blame him for going for it. Our bowlers left our batsman's too much to do.

Aamer just took a 5 wicket maiden in the last over of a T20 match. That kid is something special...

not really 3 wkts maiden, t2 runouts. But if ICC made a new law recently that the run out from wicket keeper from same bowler count wicket for bowler then I'll count he hauled five wickcets, but couldn't verify through cricinfo page..

Sure... If you want to be scientific about it. But the commentators (both on tv and on cricinfo) called it a five-wicket maiden so I'm fine with calling it that...

it is alright, that was my point too.. that over was 5 wickets maiden which consists of 2 runouts and 3 wickets for Aamir.But your previous post emphasized more on like Aamir hauled 5 wickets with an maiden over, which was not the fact.
