- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR17.2 wide line again, but not quite the yorker. But the line pulls Rizwan out of shape as he tries to hit this over mid-off. Doesn't middle it at all, and he ends up hitting a balloony catch straight to the fielder 143/29.6 taken at long-on! That's reward for a superb over from Zampa. Tossed up at the stumps, he goes for the slog sweep and it's easily taken at a reasonably wide long-on 71/118.1 he can get the big wicket, certainly. Seemed to be in the slot, on a length and just outside off, for the big hit, but it was the slower ball, and Asif didn't quite catch it. Ends up hitting it straight to long-on 158/319.2 bowled him. Back of a length angling into middle stump, some sort of cutter bowled into the pitch. Looks to swat it into the leg side, but it sneaks under his bat and pegs back middle stump 162/4Extras13 (b 5, lb 1, nb 2, w 5)TOTAL176/4 (20 Overs, RR: 8.8)Fall of wickets: 1-71 (Babar Azam, 9.6 ov), 2-143 (Mohammad Rizwan, 17.2 ov), 3-158 (Asif Ali, 18.1 ov), 4-162 (Shoaib Malik, 19.2 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR10.1 big, big appeal, and it's given! HUUUGE wicket for Pakistan, and Rizwan and Shadab are both over the moon! Lovely delivery, tossed up across the left-hander and pitching on a length, wide of off stump, inviting the cover drive. Goes hard at it, and edges behind. It was the legbreak, but it didn't turn that much, but it did bounce a little more than expected 89/40.3 what a stunning delivery! He's done it again. Full, swings back in at Finch, does him for pace as well and traps him straight in front. That was just too good. Wonderful bowling 1/16.2 big top edge, and taken! Huge moment. Marsh goes for the slog sweep, gets too far underneath it, deep square has an entirety to think about and takes it well 52/28.3 taken at deep midwicket! Another big top edge off Shadab. Very similar to the Marsh wicket, going for the slog sweep, goes way into the night sky. Smith knew as soon as he hit it. Another well-judged catch 77/312.2 got him, Shadab continues to turn this Pakistan's way. Length ball spinning away from the stumps, and Maxwell chances his arm with the reverse-sweep. Kind of falls over to the leg side while hitting it, and doesn't nail it as well as he can. Ends up hitting it too close to deep square leg, where Haris Rauf, initially moving to his left, almost overruns the ball, but dives to his right and takes a crucial, crucial catch. Shadab's now taken out Smith, Warner and Maxwell.
