BOWLINGOMRWECON0s4s6sWDNB

8.3 to DA Warner, soft dismissal for Warner, leading edge pops up tamely to the bowler, closing the face a bit to try and work the fullish ball to leg, it straightens, Warner trying to check the push in the end, in vain, and Hafeez consumes one more left-hander. 46/3
10.3 to GJ Bailey, hello, they continue to fall, and Pakistan are catching them all, Bailey goes down for the slog-sweep to a full delivery, and finds deep square leg, who leaps and takes it high, and safely. 52/5
2.301335.2092010
3.2 to MEK Hussey, and one more, Tanvir slows it up, curls it away appreciably again, fullish length has Hussey reaching out to that widish line, and extra cover accepts the dolly gleefully, Hussey was really feeling for that one way from the body, he was walking outside with momentum as he pushed. 13/2
19.1 to PJ Cummins, wide ball back of a length from round the stumps, swung straight to long on. 88/9
19.3 to BW Hilfenhaus, sharp, sharp take from Kamran, give the man some credit for this, I say, Tanvir spearing it in full from wide of the crease, and round the stumps, Kamran is moving down the leg side alright, but there is a huge deflection off a thick inside edge, the ball is dying at Kamran's left foot, but he gets the gloves down in time, and pouches it as he tumbles down. 89/10
401714.25120000
2.5 to SR Watson, and Umar Gul is back and roaring for Pakistan in his first over, serving up ones that swing in and swing away, this one was angled in and fuller than the previous ones, swung in a tad as well, caught Watson on the pad again, and looks to be alright, have to wait for replays, hit in front of middle, below the knee rolls, most umpires will give them. 12/1
401323.25140010
17.1 to GJ Maxwell, Maxwell falls too, now, he had looked very comfortable against Ajmal in the third ODI, has to go for it now, slog-sweeps hard, but only hits it high in the air to deep square leg. 81/7
17.2 to CL White, this is a demolition really now, skiddy offspinner from round the stumps, White playing from the crease, it hurries on from middle, brushes pad and strikes the stumps. 81/8
401523.75100010
9.3 to DJ Hussey, maiden international wicket for Raza Hasan, Hussey holing out to long on as he did in the third ODI, trying to clear the man, takes a step out and lofts it hard, fielder was in from the boundary and took it above his head. 51/4
15.3 to MS Wade, slog-sweep, from outside off, sails high in the air, and sails down to deep midwicket. 72/6

6.6 to Nasir Jamshed, gone, swings at a pitched up ball, it holds its line a tad, Jamshed misses, and is bowled, straightforward T20 dismissal. 44/2
301414.66122010
4.4 to Mohammad Hafeez, slower one gets the breakthrough, he set him up with some pacy ones, had him coming forward to a pitched up ball now, bowled a lot slower, Hafeez ends up working it softly in the air to short midwicket. 30/1

10.5 to Imran Nazir, falls to a full toss, gets forward and pings extra cover with a firm drive, White there tumbles forward with the screamer in his hands. 68/3
