4.3 Mohammad Irfan to Rahane, OUT, caught behind! Irfan strikes with a full delivery outside off, Rahane comes forward to drive it towards cover but the angle on the ball takes it across the batsman, it takes a faint edge to the keeper. Important strike by Irfan and Rahane loses another opportunity to impress
AM Rahane c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Irfan 4 (22m 11b 1x4 0x6) SR: 36.36
8.4 Mohammad Irfan to Gambhir, OUT, caught at point! Gambhir has given his wicket away playing a nothing shot. It was short. It was wide and instead of hitting it hard, he just guides it to the hands of point. He probably wanted to play that towards third-man, but the ball came a little slower and that messed up with his shot completely. Looked very bad.
G Gambhir c Umar Akmal b Mohammad Irfan 15 (43m 27b 1x4 0x6) SR: 55.55
34.4 Umar Gul to Dhoni, OUT, caught at point! short and not much room, Dhoni goes for the aerial cut but it goes straight to the hands of Umar Akmal at point. Dhoni falls for the first time in this series and that wicket could be the difference between a 200-run total to a 150 one now.
MS Dhoni c Umar Akmal b Umar Gul 36 (77m 55b 1x4 3x6) SR: 65.45
2.1 Kumar to Kamran Akmal, OUT, and he strikes with that one that comes booming in from outside off. We have seen it already a few times in this series, Akmal gets stuck on the crease and he is right in front of the stumps. Bhuvneshwar continues to impress with his swing
Kamran Akmal lbw b Kumar 0 (10m 3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00
20.3 Ashwin to Nasir Jamshed, OUT, picks up the wrong shot. It was a flighted delivery on the off and middle, Jamshed chooses to play a premeditated sweep and is struck on the front pad. Ashwin lets out a cry of excitement immediately and the decision is given. That is a huge wicket considering how Jamshed has played this series
Nasir Jamshed lbw b Ashwin 34 (93m 64b 5x4 0x6) SR: 53.12
48.5 Sharma to Mohammad Hafeez, OUT, caught at midwicket! Hafeez has hit this length ball straight to Yuvraj at midwicket. It wasn't a free-hit as the last ball was no-ball for height. But Pakistan have imploded big time here. Yuvraj runs around the outfield, slides on the field, he gets surrounded by his teammates.
Mohammad Hafeez c Yuvraj Singh b Sharma 21 (62m 31b 2x4 0x6) SR: 67.74
