Sohail Tanvir403007.5091112
Shahid Afridi402416.0081020
10.3 to BB McCullum, now this is a big wicket - rapped low and clearly on off, McCullum trying to sweep and missing completely. 74/2
Fawad Alam302929.6640200
7.5 to L Vincent, terrific return catch - Vincent driving hard on the up and Fawad is quick to get his hands to the ball. 50/1
14.6 to CD McMillan, goes to clear long-off again with the huge lift off the bottom of the bat, but - like Styris earlier - did not get the distance and Shoaib stays firm, and strong, to take the catch yards in from the rope. 104/5
Umar Gul401533.75141000
13.1 to SB Styris, outside off, Styris lifts up off the bottom of his bat but can't clear the cover boundary - the ball goes up straight and back down into the hands of Sohail way inside the rope. 85/3
13.3 to PG Fulton, two in three balls now for Gul as Fulton, standing straight, doesn't get over the ball and pops a straightforward catch to cover. 87/4
15.6 to JDP Oram, round the wicket again, angling in, with some lift too, and Oram's would-be carve over mid-on takes a big snick through to Akmal. 106/6

Shane Bond403318.25124110
14.3 to Shahid Afridi, gone this time, though - driven flat on the up straight to Fulton at mid-off. 111/4
Mark Gillespie3030010.0063110
Daniel Vettori402215.50140200
13.3 to Younis Khan, backed away to try to cut a straight one and got a thin edge through which McCullum snapped tidily. 104/3
Scott Styris301414.66100100
7.1 to Mohammad Hafeez, and they've got the breakthrough! Taufel raises where Harper declined. Hafeez was down in position to sweep, moving outside off stump, and struck in front of middle. Fair enough, and that's timely to say the least. 60/1
Jeetan Patel3.503118.0881200
12.2 to Imran Nazir, had to go this time - tried to sweep a faster delivery, swooping very low in doing so, and was rapped straight in front of off. 96/2
