- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.1 Edged and taken! Over the wicket, probing on a fourth stump line, tries to break free and the serious pace draws an edge that goes straight into the keeper's gloves. Much-needed breakthrough for Kings as Hasan Ali brings out a lively 'boom' celebration 55/18.4 Tossed up on middle, he skips down the track and lost the line, keeper quickly whips off the bails and looks like Usman is struggling, gets an inside edge onto the pad and the ball was rolling down, Seifert was lightning fast with his glovework, got a few reprieves but remained true to his aggressive methods and got deceived by the cunning variation 82/214.4 Full on the pads, no feet movement and plays a pick-up shot but straight into the hands of Irfan at deep midwicket who's safe as a house; his short but entertaining knock comes to an end, provided the acceleration and the platform is set for the middle-order to post an impregnable total. Just whipped it in the air but with not much power 145/3Extras22 (lb 1, nb 1, w 20)TOTAL234/3 (20 Overs, RR: 11.7)Fall of wickets: 1-55 (Shai Hope, 5.1 ov), 2-82 (Usman Khan, 8.4 ov), 3-145 (Kamran Ghulam, 14.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 Over the wicket, devillish short ball getting big on him and hung away across him, tries to pull and drag it across the line, finds an outside edge and Rizwan makes no mistake. Another vital breakthrough! 52/23.2 Around the wicket, tossed full on middle, inverses his stance and tries a reverse sweep, gets rapped on the pads and doesn't bother reviewing. Bracewell is a clever operator, that's a strong appeal and Bracewell has got he prized scalp. Huge moment in the game. Ball tracker shows it was going away from off and missing off-stump by a mile and that's what surprised me that why wouldn't he take the review given him value to the side 44/117.6 Almost in the blockhole outside off, bashed down to long-on and pushing hard for the second, fielder chucks a great throw and Aziz quickly removes the bails and Vince is well short of his crease. It didn't look like there was any other way to dismiss him tonight. Classy knock; one for the memory vault. Jordan was the fielder, no surprise 221/54.3 Prolonged appeal for an lbw and the umpire is in two minds; length ball jagged back and thumped his front pad. Review taken. There's no connection with the bat. Ball tracking says impact outside off, impact in line and hitting wickets and that's that. Three reds on the screen and Karachi Kings are in a huge spot of bother! Excellent delivery to the new batter; testing him and pitching it up, he couldn't jam his bat down quick enough and Akif continues to impress 52/36.5 Stumps disturbed, what a sight! Dream delivery for a leg-spinner. Pitches on a length and spins back just enough to rattle the off-stump, beating his pull, ball kept low as well. Usama strikes in his first over, arms aloft in celebration 79/418.2 Chopped on! Another twist in the tale. This game is not over. Short of a length arcing in from fifth stump line, he was early through the pull and ended up making a mess of his stumps; both set batters back in the shed 223/6Extras7 (lb 1, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL236/6 (19.2 Overs, RR: 12.2)Fall of wickets: 1-44 (David Warner, 3.2 ov), 2-52 (Tim Seifert, 4.2 ov), 3-52 (Shan Masood, 4.3 ov), 4-79 (Arafat Minhas, 6.5 ov), 5-221 (James Vince, 17.6 ov), 6-223 (Khushdil Shah, 18.2 ov)
