- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.2 length ball in the slot on fifth stump at 144 kph, tries to whack this with a front foot pull over the leg side but it hustles him a bit and mishits it toward Nabi at long-on, he backpedals a few steps and settles two yards inside the rope to claim this reaching up in front of his beautifully presidential face. 123/24.2 gets the wicket, and Imad roars in delight/frustration. Tried to go over the man at cover again, but doesn't get the elevation this time and goes straight into the hands of Babar Azam 53/113.4 short and wide, this time tries to flay this over cover instead of shuffling across to flick to the leg side, couldn't have picked out the cover sweeper any better where Ingram takes a basic catch at head height three yards inside the rope. 133/314.6 gem! What a delivery by Christian landing on a good length on middle, just continues on with the angle. Rossouw was caught flat-footed and plays inside the line, off stump is knocked back. 148/417.1 yorker is on the money on off stump. Instead of trying to jam this out defensively to play for the next ball, Khushdil tries to whack this back over the bowler and now his happy heart has turned a bit sad on his way back to the pavilion as middle and off stump are rocked back. 173/518.4 chips this to mid-off! Yorker on the stumps, somehow Afridi wound up getting underneath this ball trying to flick through mid-on, splices it to Nabi at mid-off instead who takes a sharp catch tumbling to his left on the ring. 182/6Extras22 (b 4, lb 9, nb 1, w 8)TOTAL195/6 (20 Overs, RR: 9.75)Fall of wickets: 1-53 (Chris Lynn, 4.2 ov), 2-123 (Mohammad Rizwan, 11.2 ov), 3-133 (James Vince, 13.4 ov), 4-148 (Rilee Rossouw, 14.6 ov), 5-173 (Khushdil Shah, 17.1 ov), 6-182 (Shahid Afridi, 18.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.5 Waheed Safi was right, Dahani did get Sharjeel out! Cross seam delivery banged in short. Sharjeel's attempted hoick gets a faint nick on the glove, and Rizwan celebrates exuberantly 56/114.2 slower bouncer does the trick to finally break the stand! Clarker tries to ramp this over third man, miscues it badly to Lynn at short fine leg, barely has to move on the ring to pouch this. 153/215.3 back of a length ball on the stumps, top edges this at 132 kph going to flick over midwicket and Dahani runs across from short fine leg to call off Rossouw sprinting in from deep backward square leg and the young fast bowler pouches a sharp take reaching in front of his body in stride at waist height. 162/3Extras8 (lb 4, w 4)TOTAL198/3 (18.5 Overs, RR: 10.51)Fall of wickets: 1-56 (Sharjeel Khan, 4.5 ov), 2-153 (Joe Clarke, 14.2 ov), 3-162 (Colin Ingram, 15.3 ov)
