- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2 Pollard took a sharp catch. Tossed up, just outside off, Lynn gave himself some room and hit it hard but big Pollard jump in time and took a lovely catch at mid-off 11/14 This time Azam gets his man. Another superb delivery, saw him coming down the wicket, pitched full and fast down the leg side, went under the bat and Azam this time makes no mistake, whipped off the bails in a flash, was a tough take as it went under the bat. Sigh of relief for Azam 38/24.1 Change in pace by Wahab does the damage. Short in length, well wide outside off, goes for the pull shot, hits high in the air and Waseem at wide of long-on took a well judged catch 38/34.4 Another slower ball and Wahab strikes again! Full and takes the pace off, tries to drive on the off side, mistimes it and chips in the air, Morgan took a dolly at extra cover 39/46.2 Thompson strikes. Slower short ball, down the leg side, goes for the pull, clips the gloves down the leg side through to keeper and Azam took a good catch 48/66 Gone! Another googly and Rashid comes down the wicket to play a big shot across the line, gets beaten by length and it goes through the gate and hits the middle stump 48/57.4 Gone! another lovely googly, pitched just outside off and spun back into the right hander, went for the big slog sweep, missed it and ball hit the middle stump 64/78.5 Gone! Wahab strikes again! Full ball, just outside off and angling away, goes for the drive and thick outside edge through to keeper, umpire is checking the noball and replay shows that foot was fine and Payne has to go 68/8Extras2 (b 1, lb 1)TOTAL78/8 (10 Overs, RR: 7.8)Did not bat: Naveen-ul-HaqFall of wickets: 1-11 (Chris Lynn, 1.6 ov), 2-38 (Alex Hales, 3.6 ov), 3-38 (James Vince, 4.1 ov), 4-39 (Brandon King, 4.4 ov), 5-48 (Adil Rashid, 5.6 ov), 6-48 (Alishan Sharafu, 6.2 ov), 7-64 (Andrew Tye, 7.4 ov), 8-68 (David Payne, 8.5 ov)
