2.2 to Sediqullah Atal, Around the wicket, wow, what a spellbinding catch. Banged in short on a teasing off-stump line, flings his bat out and tries to punch it on the rise, King instinctively flicks his right hand out at first slip above his head and the ball sticks in, made it look so nonchalant and heroic, stunning grab!. 19/2
4051112.75420
19.6 to Darwish Rasooli, Slackens his pace, lands it short in the channel, he was ready for a pull, deep midwicket didn't have to move much to gobble it up, not much oomph behind this shot. Afghanistan would be happy with this score. 181/3

0.4 to BA King, How often we see that happen when Mujeeb takes the new ball? Absolute pearler! Came back in extravagantly from a fuller length, and clatters the stumps at middle, brilliant nut. 5/1
5.2 to J Charles, Zips it quicker on middle, tries to take him on with a slog sweep behind square, late on it, always risky to take that option against Mujeeb is super quick through the air, hits him on the pads and it looks pretty adjacent, umpire raises the finger in agreement, sent upstairs by Charles for another look. Oh, he inverses his stance for a switch hit. looks really close, only thing that can save him is bat but there ultra-edge shows no spike as the ball passes the bat. Backfoot was going across so he could generate the power and access gaps at leg-side, pitching outside off, impact in line and hitting leg-stump so that's that, he has to go!. 42/3

4.5 to E Lewis, Miscued the skier! Landed short on middle, got big on him and he is stuck on the backfoot, tugs it in the air and it hit the top-edge or nearby part of the blade, taken in the deep my Rassoli who ran from midwicket. 38/2
14.2 to Q Sampson, Hits a good length or thereabouts, given plenty of room on the off-side, tries to smash him downtown and gets a tickle through to the keeper. 95/6
19.3 to K Pierre, Pitched up and gun-barrel straight, straightening down the line middle, tries to hoist it over midwicket and fail to connect, trapped lbw. 140/9

6.5 to SO Hetmyer, Sent up in the air, and Hetymer departs, looks into the heavens and admonishes himself for the miscued slog, cannot just afford to let the game drag with the asking rate creeping up, quicker delivery, tighter on the stumps, wanted to get going and found Rasooli at deep square, taking the long walk back into the pavilion, that's what Rashid does, quick through the air, very hard to dominate him, comes at a stage when the field is spread, seldom gives room to break free. 47/4
8.4 to AA Jangoo, Floated fuller on middle, jams the bat down in a bid to sweep, misses it and it looks stone dead, too risky trying to sweep, flatter, released on a lower quicker arc, going quickly towards the better, less loop and dips at him, does well to not review it because nothing going in his favor, Rashid strikes again, natural wicket-taker, master of his craft and racing to 700 wickets milestone. 50/5

17.4 to MW Forde, Dragged shorter on leg-stump, good catch from Rasooli at midwicket. Looked to hit the ball the rope, ball rushed towards him and it just lobs up, fielder took a smooth running catch. 132/7
17.6 to G Motie, Rattles the stumps! Good length googly came back in from off-stump, Motie tries to slog sweep it leg-side and misses the line. His ebullience comes to an end. 133/8
