- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.1 Pace off ball does the trick! Widish slower through the air delivery angling away, Saim places the full face of the bat, in the end plays a nothing stroke and tries to drag it to the on-side area, chips it to the left of Siddle, who makes no mistake and completes the catch. 59/19.3 Edged and taken at short third! Slower through the air and too wide outside off, follows the line of the ball and gets down on one knee, plays the slog sweep again and this time only manages to edge it to the short third fielder. Gul moves to his right side a few steps and completes the catch. Nawaz is pumped up, and a brilliant innings finally comes to an end. 104/37.1 Skipper gets skipper! Generously flighted length ball turning in on the stumps, shimmies down the track and heaves it away, does not get quite hold of it, the bat face rotates as Labuschagne strikes the ball, connects the inside part of the bat and picks out Smith at widish long on. 85/211.2 Usman has holed out! Bouncer ball well outside the leg stump channel, follows the batter as Usman backs away, plays the pull shot and hits it flat, picks out the deep fine leg fielder near the ropes, who didn't have to move an inch there. 127/416.2 Pin-point yorker and hits the base of the off stump! Ferocious yorker delivery right in the block-hole angling in, tries to dig it out through short third area, beaten by the pace, 141 clicks, and strikes the side of the off stump and races away towards the deep third ropes. 171/5Extras7 (nb 2, w 5)TOTAL225/5 (20 Overs, RR: 11.25)Fall of wickets: 1-59 (Saim Ayub, 5.1 ov), 2-85 (Marnus Labuschagne, 7.1 ov), 3-104 (Maaz Sadaqat, 9.3 ov), 4-127 (Usman Khan, 11.2 ov), 5-171 (Syed Saad Ali, 16.2 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.1 And finds the breakthrough! Quicker and fuller around off, Smith tries to go down-town and miscues the lofted stroke, hitting it straight to Niazi, who makes no mistake this time. Smith knew he was in trouble right after hitting the stroke. 104/19.4 Caught at long off! Floated fuller length ball and Philippe steps out of the crease to whack it over long off, does not get enough elevation and finds Labuschagne near the ropes. 120/213.5 Struck it straight to Hassan Khan! Length ball in the slot on the pads, it was there to be hit, plays the slog sweep and hits it flat to the backward deep square leg fielder near the fences. 165/315.4 Edged and gone! Similar line and length ball outside off, throws his bat at it to knock it through the covers, plays away from the body and outside edges to the keeper behind the stumps. 190/4Extras7 (nb 1, w 6)TOTAL227/4 (18.4 Overs, RR: 12.16)Fall of wickets: 1-104 (Steven Smith, 8.1 ov), 2-120 (Josh Philippe, 9.4 ov), 3-165 (Shan Masood, 13.5 ov), 4-190 (Ashton Turner, 15.4 ov)
