- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR18.2 huge appeal for lbw and Islamabad review.That was a yorker that struck him low down on the foot, and replays have it crashing into the stumps. After 18 wicketless overs, two wickets fall in two balls 176/218.1 well would you believe it! Babar slogged it down the ground and Alex Hales drops that at long on again!. Babar Azam is run out anyway trying to get an extra run, and he 's really frustrated with himself. Might work out for Karachi, though 176/119.6 full toss struck to cow corner where it's comfortably taken. Is it a waist-high no-ball? The umpire's are checking, and they rule it's fine! Islamabad end with a wicket, and Karachi will have to defend 197. 196/3Extras10 (lb 2, nb 3, w 5)TOTAL196/3 (20 Overs, RR: 9.8)Fall of wickets: 1-176 (Babar Azam, 18.1 ov), 2-176 (Sharjeel Khan, 18.2 ov), 3-196 (Mohammad Nabi, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.2 holes to long-on, and Dan Christian isn't dropping catches likes Alex Hales! As straightforward a chance as the Englishman had in the first innings, and the Aussie makes no mistake 1/15.3 slower ball finally does the trick - has that unlocked the key to victory for Karachi?. For once, Hales was bamboozled by the pace and turned his bat a bit too early, letting the ball scoop up high straight to mid-off 75/31.5 struck on the pads, huge, huge appeal for lbw. If that's not pitched outside leg Shadab is history. Replays show it pitched in line, and that's it. Amir gets the breakthrough, and the Islamabad's miserable day has come to an end with a golden duck 13/26.3 drags on! Similar length as last ball going short, but this time bowled much tighter on third/fourth stump, Ashraf goes to pull and is cramped for room, bottom edge cannons into the stumps. 82/417.4 looks stone dead and the finger goes up! Nabi with a clever change of line darting this flatter on off stump, it straightens and beats the attempted back foot flick by Talat trying to pinch a single to midwicket. Talat goes for the review. Seems more in hope than in belief that it will be overturned. Only way it's not out is if he was out outside the line of off stump, but the ball-tracker shows he was hit fully in line, not even umpire's call, and the ball was knocking back a fleshy part of the stumps. Aleem Dar's decision is upheld. 176/5Extras14 (b 1, lb 3, nb 1, w 9)TOTAL197/5 (19.1 Overs, RR: 10.27)Fall of wickets: 1-1 (Phil Salt, 0.2 ov), 2-13 (Shadab Khan, 1.5 ov), 3-75 (Alex Hales, 5.3 ov), 4-82 (Faheem Ashraf, 6.3 ov), 5-176 (Hussain Talat, 17.4 ov)
