    11.6 Bowled 'im! Slower on off and Uthappa looked to defend, but Narine gets it past his outside edge to clip the top of off 84/3
    5.4 Pulled in the air, taken at deep square leg. An 'it was coming' wicket as Ali Khan tied up Root, didn't allow scoring options. Root set himself up early by making room, the bouncer was dug in. Root looked to drag it across, got a top-edge and knew right away that he hadn't gotten it. Ali Khan's trademark raised-hands celebration is on. 35/1
    8.2 Ballooned to midwicket. Length ball around off, Rajapaksa tried to turn it off the back foot, closed the face and couldn't check the shot in time. It lobbed right up and led to a comfortable catch 58/2
    16.4 Holes out at deep midwicket! Banged in short again and Powell pulls it hard, but does not time it as well and it's straight to Colin Ingram, who takes a simple catch. Powell falls two runs short of his half-century 135/4
    18.4 That's skied and caught safely! Full outside off and Raza looked to clear the rope again, swinging hard, but ended up getting it high but not far enough and Russell settles under it and takes the catch 164/5
    19.1 Slower ball pitched up around off, Yusuf looks to go downtown but doesn't connect cleanly and it's a simple catch at long-on. Yusuf struggled throughout his time in the middle, looking to hit big but failing to connect and finally it's brought about his downfall 170/6

    0.6 Edged and taken at first slip. Udana pitches it up, keeps it just outside off and induces the cover drive. Ingram stood still and went for the shot. The keeper was shaping to take it but let it go, Root at first slip, did well to keep his eyes on move to the side and took it. 2/1
    11.5 Powell has his second and it's the big wicket of Paul Stirling! That was banged in short outside off and Stirling looked to go downtown, but can't time it well at all and it's hit straight to long-on. A good knock comes to an end, courtesy of Powell, who has been brilliant with both bat and ball today 82/4
    4.2 King gets Raja in the royal encounter. The misfield works in the bowler's favour as he nicks off the flashing batter. It was a length ball just outside off, King looked to whack it with a lofted drive but was done by lack of pace and got an edge that the keeper comfortably grabbed 31/2
    9.6 That's high in the air, and taken! Full around off, Farid swung hard as he looked to hit it through the leg side but it balloons up and Mujeeb settles under it at short third. Powell with a wicket. Is there anything he can't do today? 71/3
    12.3 And another one goes! Fired in quicker and flatter, outside off and Narine doesn't time his shot at all and it's another catch for Joe Root, who was nicely positioned at long-on 84/5
    15.2 Luqman has the big man Dre Russ! Joe Root, at long off this time, takes his fourth catch as Luqman banged this in short and Russell swung for the hills. Did not time that at all and it was a simple catch for Root. 100/7
    14.5 Akif Raja has his second as Esterhuizen drives this straight to extra cover! That was full outside off but Esterhuizen drove it rather tamely, and aerially, to Yusuf Pathan, who makes no mistake. Abu Dhabi are six down and they haven't even reached 100 yet 98/6
    16.1 Has he struck with his first ball of the over? He seems to think so. It was a length ball that looped up and the wicketkeeper went to his right to take a catch. Did that take any bat or was it straight onto the pads? Yes, UltraEdge shows a spike and Hosein has to go! That was the carrom ball that turned in sharply, taking a slight inside edge onto the pads. Robin Uthappa makes no mistakes behind the stumps 102/8
    16.4 Castled! That's a lovely off-break outside off. Turns in sharply from a length and goes through the gates and Mujeeb has his second of the over! 103/9
