- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.3 Sameen gets the big fish! Held this back, wide of off and he danced down the track, had a mighty swing at it, got a thick edge and it goes straight into the hands of Usama Mir at wide third man. Sameen Gul is absolutely ecstatic with the early success 0/14.6 Ihsanullah bangs in an absolute jaffa that explodes off the pitch and draws him into a false shot, can't pull that away properly and he got himself into a tangle, Rizwan charged in to complete a spectacular catch. This is Ihsanullah's 15th scalp in the tournament 50/212.4 That is an anticlimactic finish to an entertaining innings! Dug in short into the body and he lifts it straight back into the hands of Pollard who gives him a fiery send-off! Shafique is livid with himself as Pollard provides a crucial breakthrough and grabs an absolute screamer off his own bowling 119/314.4 Squealing for an LBW and review taken, Billings has already walked off, no bat involved, pitched outside off, impact in line and it's clattering on the middle stump so that's stone dead lbw, only way he could have survived this was if he got some bat on it. Pollard is having a good outing there, sent two set batters back into the hut 140/415.2 Traps him lbw! Pitched full with searing pace and tenderises his pads as he failed to scoop it behind square, he goes for the review hoping against hope, three reds on the screen and the on-field decision stands, Raza takes the long walk back into the pavillion. 146/518.2 Another one bites the dust! Bowls a wide yorker and he clatters it through covers but the fielder lunged forward and hing on to it brilliantly. What a snare! 167/618.4 Dropped short wide of off and he was nowhere near the line of the ball just threw his hands at it and Rashid Khan goes back in the hut without troubling the scorers. Sameen Gull pouches the skier gleefully. Wickets are tumbling 167/719.5 That's a tremendous riposte, rearranges his stumps with well-directed yorker, off his shoe to the stumps in-fact and Shaheen's brief cameo comes to an end 180/819.6 That was an effort delivery, dug into the pitch on a nagging off stump line, he threw the kitchen sink and it went miles up into the night-sky, Sameen takes a sprawling catch, cool as a cucumber under the skier 180/9Extras14 (lb 2, nb 1, w 11)TOTAL180/9 (20 Overs, RR: 9)Did not bat: Zaman KhanFall of wickets: 1-0 (Fakhar Zaman, 0.3 ov), 2-50 (Mirza Baig, 4.6 ov), 3-119 (Abdullah Shafique, 12.4 ov), 4-140 (Sam Billings, 14.4 ov), 5-146 (Sikandar Raza, 15.2 ov), 6-167 (Hussain Talat, 18.2 ov), 7-167 (Rashid Khan, 18.4 ov), 8-180 (Shaheen Shah Afridi, 19.5 ov), 9-180 (Haris Rauf, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.3 Dug into the pitch on an attacking off stump line from round the wicket, lures him to go big over extra cover, he got the elevation but no the distance, came off the leading edge and Shaheen takes an absolute blinder, backtracking and keeping his eyes locked on the ball and holding on to it superbly to shed the first wicket. This is exactly what the doctor prescribed for Lahore 48/19.1 Huge appeal for an lbw, tossed up on a full length, wicket to wicket stuff, adn raps the pads, umpire is not convinced but Sikandar convinces Shaheen to go upstairs as we wait in anticipation to see what the ultra edge and ball tracker shows, it pitched outside off, impact is in line, and hitting the wickets, wow, what a review, spot-on from Sikandar and the umpire changes his on-field decision, this is a massive wicket as Rizwan looked set for a big innings here, touch and go call but a timely scalp for Qalandars 64/210.1 Gottim! Rashid gets his man with a wrong'un, he lost his shape while going for the heave over midwicket, the ball gripped, spun and kept very low, going through his defence and Usama takes the long walk back into the pavilion 74/312.2 Oh boy! Rashid is turning up the heat and gets Rossouw with his cunning spinning methods, he was dancing down the track in a bid to whack that over midwicket, didn't read the line of the ball and Rashid has the last laugh. 87/510.4 Loopy legbreak on a fuller length and it veers in, his feet are jammed in the ground and once again it thumps his pads, they take the review, this looks closer. Pitching in line impact is also in line and hitting the wickets, successful review! The ball dipped on him and beated him, Miller goes for one, another prized scalp and a terrific review 76/419.5 Coudn't get underneath on this occasion, it was in his swinging arc, pitched up outside off, picked it across the line and gets holed out to Rashid at deep midwicket 155/715.2 Haris Rauf doing Haris Rauf things! Round the wicket, goes for the wide-yorker, misses it by a fraction and Khushdil didn't transfer his weight completely to the off side as he tried to clear extra cover, Wiese takes a regulation catch while running across and covering a lot of ground 106/6Extras10 (lb 4, w 6)TOTAL159/7 (20 Overs, RR: 7.95)Fall of wickets: 1-48 (Shan Masood, 6.3 ov), 2-64 (Mohammad Rizwan, 9.1 ov), 3-74 (Usama Mir, 10.1 ov), 4-76 (David Miller, 10.4 ov), 5-87 (Rilee Rossouw, 12.2 ov), 6-106 (Khushdil Shah, 15.2 ov), 7-155 (Kieron Pollard, 19.5 ov)
