- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR29.4 what a stunner of a catch that is! It was a long-hop, Hlabangana tried to heave it over cow corner, but it whizzes past the Pakistan captain Farhan, who flies to his right and grabs it with one hand! This will be one of the catches of the tournament 94/72.5 Sends the middle stump cartwheeling! Bowled him with a peach! Good length ball on the fourth stump line and shapes back in just enough to sneak through the bat-pad of Muradzi. The batter plays off the front foot, loses his shape and bends down on the follow-through of the shot and is beaten by the pace and seam movement. 9/14.6 Edged and Zahoor grab a screamer! Ali Raza bowls a good length ball on the probing zone; with a slight deviation and Blignaut struggles to read the line of the ball, plays it late off the front foot and gets the outside edge. The wicketkeeper, Zahoor, dives fully stretched to his right side and grabs it with one hand. 22/25.2 Soft dismisal! Good length ball on the leg stump line, extra bounce off the pitch and Patel commits to it early off the front foot, the bat face rotates as he tries to play it through the on-side area and chips it to the short mid wicket fielder for a regulation catch. Gone for a golden duck, shakes his head in disappointment as he trudges back to the dugout. 23/39.2 Oh dear me! Unlucky dismissal! Hard length ball shapes away around the off stump line, hangs back inside the crease and plays off the back foot away from the body, tries to guide it through the cover area, has a thickish inside edge and just clips the bail of the middle-leg stump. Mudzengerere screams in frustration. Checking for the front foot no-ball, it looks like Sayyam managed to keep something behind the white line. 35/414.1 Caught and bowled! Slower through the air ball on a fuller length around the fifth stump line, plays the front foot straight drive half-heartedly, misjudges the flight of the ball and plays the stroke early, driven aerially straight back to the bowler. 54/524.4 nasty bouncer that Senzere can't get out of the way off. Hits him on the hand, scoops up off the helmet and Ali Raza takes a simple catch. The batter looks very unhappy, and doesn't believe it came off the hand at all, but he has to trudge off. Pakistan strike and Ali Raza gets his third 82/632.1 Edged and gone! Banged in a harmless widish short ball outside off, hangs back inside the crease and tries to slice it over the backward point infield, connects it late and nicks it to the keeper behind the stumps. 107/832.4 Chimugoro has holed out! Short ball does the trick again! Bouncer ball on middle-leg, kept a bit low on the track, whips it away half-heartedly and finds the deep backward square leg fielder 108/935.5 Cleaned him up with the googly! Generously flighted wrong-un ball on the off stump line and turning in, tries to whack it through the line of the ball, beaten by the flight and turn and clips the top of the middle-leg stump. 128/10Extras9 (b 1, lb 2, nb 1, w 5)TOTAL128 all out (35.5 Overs, RR: 3.57)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Kupakwashe Muradzi, 2.5 ov), 2-22 (Kian Blignaut, 4.6 ov), 3-23 (Dhruv Patel, 5.2 ov), 4-35 (Simbarashe Mudzengerere, 9.2 ov), 5-54 (Leeroy Chiwaula, 14.1 ov), 6-82 (Brandon Senzere, 24.4 ov), 7-94 (Nathaniel Hlabangana, 29.4 ov), 8-107 (Michael Blignaut, 32.1 ov), 9-108 (Tatenda Chimugoro, 32.4 ov), 10-128 (Panashe Mazai, 35.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.3 Done him with the swing! Hard length ball on the fifth stump line shapes away with extra bounce off the pitch, moves towards the line of the ball and tries to negate off the front foot, gets a healthy edge off the outside part of the bat and the keeper does the rest behind the stumps. 19/110.5 Straight through and cleaned up the leg stump! Bowls the flatter length ball on the leg stump channel, Usman moves across the line and gets down on one knee to play the paddle sweep, misses the line and length completely and the ball crashes onto the leg stump. 68/2Extras5 (b 1, nb 1, w 3)TOTAL132/2 (26.2 Overs, RR: 5.01)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Ali Hassan Baloch, 3.3 ov), 2-68 (Usman Khan, 10.5 ov)
