- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.5 another short delivery, and this time miscuing the pull has consequences! He couldn't get it away, and gets a tickle off the glove onto the shoulder. He doesn't even wait for the umpire's decision, and Hasan Ali has his 100th ODI wicket 68/135.5 tried to help it over midwicket but holes out on the boundary It was a good-looking shot, and appeared to be timed very well, but couldn't get the distance on it and Saud Shakeel held on. The look of frustration on his face is evident as he shuffles off to a standing ovation 261/334.2 Williamson falls trying to bring his 100 up with a six!. Dances down the track and looked to clear long-off, but just couldn't get enough elevation or distance on it. Fakhar comes round and takes a smart catch, but not before a glorious return innings from Williamson has put New Zealand firmly in the driver's seat 248/241.1 Chopped on! Goes for an ambitious pull across the line and makes a mess of his stumps; the dreadful rattle means he has to go back to the pavilion. On a length and way outside off, he was trying to force it across the line and got deceived a touch by the slowness of the delivery, big wicket for Pakistan. Mitchell looks disconsolate after getting a good start. 318/444.3 Pings the top of off and what a sight for the bowler to see bails flying away! Goes full and gets it to reverse a touch, it's a pinpoint accurate delivery, rips away as Chapman throws the kitchen sink at it, trying to clobber it across the line over midwicket and got it wrong. Wasim. Jnr wheels away in jubilation! That's a great breakthrough because he is a dangerous customer 345/548.5 Gottim with a beauty! Wrecked the stumps with a fast and furious yorker that hits him on pads and deflects away to stumps. That was a brilliant inswinging yorker 388/6Extras26 (lb 8, nb 1, w 17)TOTAL401/6 (50 Overs, RR: 8.02)Fall of wickets: 1-68 (Devon Conway, 10.5 ov), 2-248 (Kane Williamson, 34.2 ov), 3-261 (Rachin Ravindra, 35.5 ov), 4-318 (Daryl Mitchell, 41.1 ov), 5-345 (Mark Chapman, 44.3 ov), 6-388 (Glenn Phillips, 48.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.6 sensational diving catch running backwards from Kane Williamson? Anything this freak of a man can't do? Aerial drive over mid-off from Shafique, as Kane runs back on his hobbling knee, extends himself to put in a diving as he's running backwards with the ball coming over his shoulder, and then lets the ball nestle into his hands, broken thumb and all. 6/1Extras4 (lb 1, w 3)TOTAL200/1 (25.3 Overs, RR: 7.84)Fall of wickets: 1-6 (Abdullah Shafique, 1.6 ov)
