5.1 to Shoaib Malik, lbw appeal and given! And has he struck in the first ball of his spell? Full ball, on middle, and he misses the flick. Umpie was quick to raise his finger. Malik thinks before reviewing. This was a fullish ball, went past the bat's edge, hits the front leg in front of middle stump. Is it angling down leg? No, it isn't! Clipping the outside of leg stump...so Malik falls. Zalmi in trouble. 34/3 18.4 to SE Rutherford, slower bouncer nabs him! Ball sticks in the wicket with tennis ball bounce, Rutherford struggles trying to keep his hands back with his body already rotated through his intended pull, he eventually swats at this and it comes off the gloves quite clearly to balloon to the keeper. Simple decision for the umpire.. 151/5
Abbas Afridi	4	0	27	2	6.75	9	1	1	3	1
4.1 to Kamran Akmal, debutant gets his maiden wicket and Kamran will be disappointed with this dismissal. Short and wide, Kamran had backed away to make room but that forced him to reach at the ball eventually. Slaps a cut, takes a thick edge, flies to third man, who takes a sharp catch running to his left. 30/1 4.5 to T Kohler-Cadmore, he strikes again! Full on middle and leg. Clears the front leg and tries to clear midwicket, but mistimed. Sharjeel runs to his left, dives forward, and holds on to it.. 33/2

9.4 to Haider Ali, length ball on middle. Looks to whip it off his pads behind square, but he's through the shot too early trying to play it for regular pace. In the air, and taken at deep backward square. 69/4

0.1 to Sharjeel Khan, bowled Imran, caught Irfan! Short ball from the left-arm seamer. Angling into him. Mistimes the pull, and taken at short fine leg. What a start. 0/1
Mohammad Irfan	4	0	26	1	6.50	11	4	0	1	0
3.4 to JM Clarke, simple catch as this length ball on middle angles across. Extra bounce, and Clarke's attempted off-side slap takes an edge. Akmal holds on. 22/2
Saqib Mahmood	4	0	41	2	10.25	10	4	2	3	0
6.6 to CA Ingram, Saqib extends his lead at the top of the wicket-takers charts for this season. Short ball, on middle and leg. Mistimes the pull, but it flies off the edge instead. Midwicket runs in and takes a simple catch from near his chest. Ingram falls after a strike-rate of 27.3. 43/3 16.3 to Mohammad Nabi, length ball on the stumps, Nabi flat bats this to long-on, simple catch 10 yards inside the rope at head height. After being dropped on 20, Nabi finally falls for 67. The stand which could have been nipped at 30 runs with Babar finally concludes for 118 as well.. 161/4
