2.1 to Shayan Jahangir, Chopped on! Starts the over with a fuller length ball pitching wide outside off. Jahangir throws the kitchen sink at it and mishits the stroke, thick inside edge and rattles the leg stump!. 14/1
17.4 to JM Cox, Slower ball does the trick! Short pitched pace off delivery around the off-side tramline, this time Cox moves across and tries to carve it over the cover area, mistimes the stroke and outside edges a simple catch to the short third fielder at the edge of the circle. Omarzai is pumped up, and Cox shakes his head in disappointment.. 134/5
17.6 to R Powell, bowled him with a peach! Good length ball nips back in on the stumps, enough deviation to beat Powell off the front foot, ricochets off the front pad and crashes onto the stumps as he plays across the line. Gone for a silver duck!. 134/6
402315.75113000
9.1 to Sediqullah Atal, Soft dismissal! A tad short of a length ball from Moeen Ali on middle-leg, clears the front leg and goes for the big heave, does not get quite hold of it as he connects the inside part of the bat, hits it flat and hard to the deep midwicket fielder. 75/2
1012012.0012000
403117.7581200
12.4 to DJ Willey, up in the airrrrr and taken! Length ball on middle-leg, Willey gets underneath the ball early and goes for the slog sweep, skies the ball high in the air towards the cow corner area. Gurbaz comes around and completes the catch with ease.. 89/3
10313.0030000
13.5 to Gulbadin Naib, cleaned him up! Flighted good length ball with the arm, hits the deck and straightens just enough to go through the bat-pad of Naib. The batter goes down on one knee and tries to hit it across the line, misses the line completely, and is clean bowled!. 93/4

1.1 to Rahmanullah Gurbaz, And Fizz strikes straightaway! The cutter-master from Bangladesh made an impact on the very first ball! Length ball on middle-leg and angling in on the stumps, Gurbaz attempts to loft it over the infield, mistimes the stroke and chips it in the air towards mid-on. Cox moves to his left side swiftly and grabs a fantastic one-handed catch with the right hand, timing the jump to perfection too at the edge of the circle!. 10/1
11.1 to P Nissanka, Nissanka has holed out! A fine innings has finally come to an end. Bowls a widish fuller length ball angling away and Nissanka extends his arms to drag it across the line, toe ends the ball and skies it high towards the midwicket area, Cox moves to his right side and completes the catch.. 107/2

16.4 to TJ Moores, Shortish ball on the pads, Moores clears the front leg and tries to send it out of the park again, this time he only manages to hit the outside part of the bat and sky it high towards deep backward square leg. Mustafizur Rahman settles underneath the night sky, waits for the ball to land and pouches it with safe hands.. 144/5
201628.0041100
12.4 to MM Ali, skipper gets the skipper! Three-quarter length ball around the sixth stump line, Moeen Ali hangs back and pokes at it tentatively, kisses the outside part of the bat and Jahangir takes a well-judged catch diving forward to his left side.. 112/3
14.6 to Azmatullah Omarzai, Massive wicket! Slower through the air ball, leg-cutter on middle-leg and Omarzai attempts to go downtown. This time he miscues the stroke and strikes it flat towards the long on fielder, who takes a regulation catch near the ropes.. 128/4
0.50414.8020010
18.2 to MG Erasmus, Slices it straight to Fizz! Add more spice to the drama. Shortish ball angling away outside off, Erasmus gets on top of the bounce and plays the upper cut towards the deep third fielder. Fizz didn't have to move an inch there, gobbled it up near the ropes and made no reaction, as usual.. 158/6
