- BATSMENRB4s6sSR0.1 Crackerjack! Luke Wood starts off with a zinger, lands it on a slightly shorter length and gets it to nip back a fraction, he jams the bat down and can't get his bat behind the line, zingers are alight and PZ have drawn first blood. Perfection from Luke Wood! Ball kept a touch low 0/116.1 Warner is livid with himself, couldn't clear the fence at deep midwicket. It was a harmless half-tracker on middle, he shifted his weight back and pulled it in the air, Saim hangs onto it brilliantly, safe fielder, timely scalps by PZ, both set batters are back into the hut 167/415 Edged and taken! Some respite for PZ and Ali. Bowls with a lot of heart, venom and energy. Lands on the same spot and gets it to nibble away from a nagging off-stump line, tries to chop it behind square on off and ends up getting feather to the keeper, fiery celebration from Raza and that brings an end to a spellbinding knock from Vince 162/215.4 Full and angled into his pads, he was committed to the shot and didn't change his mind, heaved downtown and straight into the hands of Babar at long-on, bat turned in his hand and the timing wasn't perfect, short stay at the crease but they have got plenty of batting to come 165/3Extras8 (lb 2, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL237/4 (20 Overs, RR: 11.85)Fall of wickets: 1-0 (Ben McDermott, 0.1 ov), 2-162 (James Vince, 14.6 ov), 3-165 (Irfan Khan, 15.4 ov), 4-167 (David Warner, 16.1 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR10.4 Around the wicket, slower and slightly shortish and angled in from outside off, he stomps down the pitch and hasn't got all of it, got a decent chunk of it, little toe-endish though, Vince, safe as a house, reverse-cups it and makes it look so easy, decent contribution though but he and his team would have dearly liked to continue, perfect pair for this situation. Abbas gets the prized scalp 107/22.5 Exposes his stumps, backs away, loses his shape while going downtown, sits nicely for Vince at long-off who reverse-cups it with ease, Haris doesn't like to go in a shell, and forced his way into this shot, little premeditated and was in no position to execute the shot properly. Nice tumbling catch, having a wonderful day, Hasan has the last laugh 30/117.5 Rams a yorker on middle and he whips it away to deep midwicket, hustling and bustling for the second, Babar puts in a full-length dive and is short of his crease; that was a brilliant throw, strong arm. Great knock though, strike rate was good and we saw power-hitting as well, long-ranger effort, needed more support from his teammates. it was a one-handed pick-up from Jamal 184/516.1 Touch short with some width, sliced to deep point 169/317.2 Back of the hand slower one on a length dancing in the channel, throws the kitchen sink and slices it to the man at short third, will have to take the long walk back to the pavilion, superb tumbling catch from Vince. 178/4Extras6 (b 4, lb 1, w 1)TOTAL214/5 (20 Overs, RR: 10.7)Fall of wickets: 1-30 (Mohammad Haris, 2.5 ov), 2-107 (Saim Ayub, 10.4 ov), 3-169 (Tom Kohler-Cadmore, 16.1 ov), 4-178 (Max Bryant, 17.2 ov), 5-184 (Babar Azam, 17.5 ov)
