0.4 to PR Stirling, and gone! Not a bad option, but quite terrible execution. Gets right across his stumps to sweep Hamza's darts over square leg, But the length is shorter and not quite a sweep-able delivery. Stirling attempts a pull and just plain misses it. Hits leg stump. Have to connect. 1/1 9.4 to SR Thompson, that's taken. Flat on leg, Thompson comes down but doesn't get to the pitch of the ball. He lofts the ball anyway but doesn't get enough behind his lofted flick. Long-on gets around to his left and completes a relatively easy catch. 83/2 | ||||||||||

14.3 to KJ O'Brien, the legspinner and Rashid strikes! Was that be best option? May have not been picking him, which is why coming down makes it doubly streaky. He doesn't get to the pitch, nor does he pick the legbreak, nor does he make contact with his wild heave. Shahzad does the simple rest. 112/4 | ||||||||||

4.6 to Najeeb Tarakai, good, smart catch by the wicketkeeper. Tarakai was looking to loft this over the leg side. Length and it stops on the batsman, so it does come on to him as well as he would have liked. Tries to slog it away and gets a leading edge that goes towards third man and the keeper runs across and snaffles it well. 51/1 | ||||||||||

17.5 to Mohammad Nabi, oh, gone! Got to ask, was that really necessary? Full and outside off and Nabi drills it hard through midwicket. Cannot keep it along the ground and sends it straight into the hands of the midwicket fielder. 165/4 | ||||||||||

16.4 to Samiullah Shinwari, superb catch at long-on. They go upstairs to check if he has taken that fine, but does not seem like there's any problem. It was full and the batsman was using the inward angle and lofting it. It's the long part of the boundary there and the ball nearly carries but not over the fielder there. He moves to his right, takes it reverse-cupped and is arching back. The angle and momentum takes him over the ropes, so he flicks it in the air, crosses the boundary and steps back in to take it again. It's a pretty clean effort, no part of the foot was on the ropes. 161/3 | ||||||||||
