- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.1 he's got Rizwan, has Hamza! He bowled a good first over and tossed it out wide again, drawing Rizwan to the offside, but he only manages a little under-edge the keeper nabs on to! 35/117.3 holes out to long-on. Wasn't quite short enough to pull, Babar went for it anyway, got it higher on the bat and the ball just loops up in the air and drops safely into the hands of the fielder stationed at a slightly wide long-on. 142/49.4 and that's Fakhar Zaman done for! He hasn't really shone through the five games so far, and this time tried to reach for it and clobber it over cow corner, only to pick out Michael Leask perfectly 59/214.6 rapped in front by one that has come back in but Hafeez will review. Great comeback by Sharif, who bowled an off-cutter on a length. Hafeez looking to pull it from Sharjah to Dubai, misses it completely. And it's three reds so Hafeez's sparkling innings has ended. Scotland needed that wicket. 112/3Extras10 (lb 3, w 7)TOTAL189/4 (20 Overs, RR: 9.45)Fall of wickets: 1-35 (Mohammad Rizwan, 6.1 ov), 2-59 (Fakhar Zaman, 9.4 ov), 3-112 (Mohammad Hafeez, 14.6 ov), 4-142 (Babar Azam, 17.3 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.1 he's gone first ball after drinks. Given some air outside off, he makes room to crash it through off but skewers it off the outside edge to short third man 41/35.3 cleans him up - Hasan has his first! Real battle for Coetzer, this innings, just 9 off 16 balls, and you sensed something had to give. Went for the slog over the top again, while Hasan's slower ball was arrowing into off-stump 23/17.6 smashed down the ground, and Imad effects a run-out at the non-striker's end. That's unfortunate for the Scots, but Cross had wandered down the crease slightly, and when the drive was clattered back, Imad made sure to get a hand to it on its way through. 36/210.3 castled. Nice loop on the ball, drifting into him and dipping, he's looking to whip it through midwicket, but is beaten by the googly, and the ball thuds into stumps off his pads 41/415.4 stumps shattered. They've been backing away to make room against Shaheen's full, fast ones, but this one is a bit too quick, and he's late on the attempted thrash through off, by which time the stumps have been re-arranged by a Shaheen special. 87/519.2 length ball at normal pace outside off, and he's had a thrash at it, but only manages an under-edge that is dragged back onto the stumps. 114/6Extras12 (b 1, lb 1, nb 3, w 7)TOTAL117/6 (20 Overs, RR: 5.85)Fall of wickets: 1-23 (Kyle Coetzer, 5.3 ov), 2-36 (Matthew Cross, 7.6 ov), 3-41 (George Munsey, 10.1 ov), 4-41 (Dylan Budge, 10.3 ov), 5-87 (Michael Leask, 15.4 ov), 6-114 (Chris Greaves, 19.2 ov)
