- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.6 Chopped on! Good length, just outside the channel, Gurbaz tries to caress it through the off-side but gets rushed by the extra pace as he inside-edges his cut back onto his stumps. Naseem has got his man and he's pumped up big time 48/110.4 OUT! Googly, pitching on the stumps, tries to clip it into the on-side but gets hit on the pads. Loud appeal from the bowler and the keeper but it's not given. Oh, hang on, Hales has wandered way down the pitch, possibly worried about being given out on-field and he's not looking at the ball. A shy at the striker's end and Sarfraz is quick to knock the bails off. Hales is livid with himself but he has to walk back to the dug-out 102/310.1 Taken at deep square leg! Lobbed up, middle and off, Shadab crouches low to get underneath this as he brings out the conventional sweep, extra bounce does him as he skies it deep into the leg-side where it's safely pouched by Ahsan Ali. Afridi's got the man in form 100/212.2 He's gone too! Floaty leg-break, wide of off, turns into him sharply as Asif tries to cut it away but gets a faint bottom-edge through to the keeper. Excellent catch by Sarfraz and the United are teetering now 109/610.5 Got him first ball! Flatter trajectory, sliding into him with the angle as he is struck on the crease and tries to defend it tentatively. It sneaks through between his bat and it's stonedead in front of the stumps. Three wickets in the over and the Gladiators have roared back to take the momentum 102/411.1 Run-out! Chaos ensuing out in the middle and everything Afridi is touching is turning to gold. Round the wicket angle, clipped to short midwicket; there's no run there but Azam Khan has trudged halfway down the pitch when he has to lunge back towards the non-striker's end, does not make it home as Afridi has a shy at the stumps and clatters the timberwork 102/519.4 Castled! Slower delivery, on a length, Dawson looks to mow it away but it's not right in the arc, sneaks through between his bat and pad and clatters into the timberwork behind 187/819.3 OUT! Round the wicket angle, serves up another slower delivery outside off, Faheem tries to clobber it away into the on-side but this takes the splice and lobs up for the cover fielder to take a simple catch 187/7Extras20 (lb 4, w 16)TOTAL199/8 (20 Overs, RR: 9.95)Did not bat: Zeeshan ZameerFall of wickets: 1-48 (Rahmanullah Gurbaz, 4.6 ov), 2-100 (Shadab Khan, 10.1 ov), 3-102 (Alex Hales, 10.4 ov), 4-102 (Muhammad Akhlaq, 10.5 ov), 5-102 (Azam Khan, 11.1 ov), 6-109 (Asif Ali, 12.2 ov), 7-187 (Faheem Ashraf, 19.3 ov), 8-187 (Liam Dawson, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR7.6 Cleaned him up! Stoops low and tries to nail the reverse-sweep again, this time it's too full; brushes his pad and clatters into the stumps. Huge wicket for the United and Shadab makes an immediate impact 88/18.2 Given out! Darted in with the angle, Ahsan tries to nudge it across the line into the on-side but gets thudded on the front pad. Loud appeal from behind the stumps and it's given on-field. The batsman decides to go upstairs, though, and we'll have recheck this. It's pitching in-line and it's brushing the leg-stump! 92/213.6 Cleaned him up! Flatter delivery, pushed through from the front of the hand and sliding in with the angle, Vince tries to pull it away but it sneaks through him and crashes into the stumps 130/315.3 Taken in the deep! Floated wide outside off, Iftikhar looks to go inside-out over the off-side, cannot quite get underneath this and he's holed out to Mohammad Wasim at sweeper cover. Shadab's scalped his third and the Gladiators are really falling behind now 139/418.5 Caught at deep midwicket! Slower delivery, in the arc, he hacks across the line but gets it off the toe-end of his blade; good airtime on this but not enough distance and it's safely pouched 191/5Extras12 (b 4, w 8)TOTAL203/5 (19.4 Overs, RR: 10.32)Fall of wickets: 1-88 (Jason Roy, 7.6 ov), 2-92 (Ahsan Ali, 8.2 ov), 3-130 (James Vince, 13.6 ov), 4-139 (Iftikhar Ahmed, 15.3 ov), 5-191 (Umar Akmal, 18.5 ov)
