- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.6 gloves this down leg to the keeper. Cottrell salutes but it isn't a delivery you expect to strike with. Slipped it down leg, Imam looking to help it along but could only feather this. 17/15.5 the bouncer gets him! The raw pace of Russell has done the trick. Fakhar picks the length but is surprised by the zip as he shapes to pull this short ball, but is a tad late on the stroke as the ball hits the grille of the helmet and rolls back onto the stumps. 35/213.1 brilliant catch by Shai Hope He's sprouted wings and flown to his right - and I mean flown because he was airborne and parallel to the ground - to pull off a stunner. That earlier drop isn't going to cost West Indies much after all. Outswinger that was going away from him, Babar had a somewhat lazy waft at it and took a thick edge. Should have ordinarily gone between keeper and slip, or been parried to the ground. Until Hope took off. 62/49.4 he's got him! Russell, you legend. What a gamechanger he is! After going short-short-short, he zips one across at 145kph, Haris looks to ride the bounce but is very late on the stroke and gets the thinnest of edges to Shai Hope behind the stumps. Pakistan in trouble. 45/316.1 Review for caught behind Holder strayed on the legstump with a back of a length ball angling into the batsman, and he doesn't get enough on it to tickle it fine. Shai Hope immediately asked for a review though the umpire thought it had come off the thigh pad, saying he heard two noises. And Hope is right. He got a faint tickle on it, and then it went to the keeper off thigh pad. Captain gets captain, and Pakistan are sinking. 75/519.3 if it's a short ball, it's going to be wicket! On target bouncer has Hafeez taking ungainly evasive action while trying to duck/sway out of the way. But his bat is left hanging in the air, and the ball pings off to fly to fine leg, where Cottrell dives forward to take a smart catch 83/916.6 Gayle's caught it! The West Indians have come out with a simple, yet brutally effective plan, and Pakistan are falling to it. Short, short, short - wicket. This was another short one, Imad tried to pull it, got a top edge that swirled to Gayle's right at slip, and he stretched out to pluck it with one hand. 77/617.3 nailed in front. Good length, slightly on the fuller side, pitches on middle and beats him with pace. He was playing down the wrong line, and he's caught on the crease with the ball thudding into pad. Oshane goes up, and so does the umpire's finger 78/718.3 soft, soft dismissal and again it's to a ball that's shorter than a good length. This was not a bouncer, but back of a length outside off. Hasan thought he'd have a thrash at it and went for the pull, but the problem is, he's not a top order batsman and was late on it. The ball takes the toe-end to swirl comfortably to Cottrell at mid-off for the simplest of catches 81/821.4 full, straight and gone! Such poor application. Why would you expose all three stumps and slog wildly when you have a lifetime of overs remaining? 105/10Extras4 (nb 2, w 2)TOTAL105 all out (21.4 Overs, RR: 4.84)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Imam-ul-Haq, 2.6 ov), 2-35 (Fakhar Zaman, 5.5 ov), 3-45 (Haris Sohail, 9.4 ov), 4-62 (Babar Azam, 13.1 ov), 5-75 (Sarfaraz Ahmed, 16.1 ov), 6-77 (Imad Wasim, 16.6 ov), 7-78 (Shadab Khan, 17.3 ov), 8-81 (Hasan Ali, 18.3 ov), 9-83 (Mohammad Hafeez, 19.3 ov), 10-105 (Wahab Riaz, 21.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.5 point takes a dolly, Gayle was increasingly looking edgy with that back issue. Takes a swipe at this length ball, gets a top-edge and that's an easy catch. He's done his job though. 77/34.3 slices it high in the air and is taken. Hope hasn't looked very fluent in this innings, despite a couple of crisp shots. He wanted to go over the top again, but sends it swirling to mid-off's left. Hafeez sprints and tumbles to complete the catch 36/16.2 caught at second slip. Off-cutter, pitches back of a length outside off and seemed to hold on the pitch a bit, and bounce more than Bravo expected. He ends up fending it from his crease, takes the shoulder of the bat and second slip holds on to his right at shoulder height. 46/2Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL108/3 (13.4 Overs, RR: 7.9)Fall of wickets: 1-36 (Shai Hope, 4.3 ov), 2-46 (Darren Bravo, 6.2 ov), 3-77 (Chris Gayle, 10.5 ov)
