16.5 to Aamer Jamal, Oh, that's a terrific delivery! Ruses him with a well-disguised slower delivery from back of the hand and he is through the hoick too early, makes a mess of his stumps and has a stunned look on his face. Excellent skill on show from Gulbadin as he brings out his famous biceps celebration. 109/8 | ||||||||||

6.3 to Rohail Nazir, Skied and this time no reprieve! Back of length ball from around the wicket and he goes to pull at hip height and gets a thick edge as the ball balloons up in the air. Shahzad stands underneath it and gobbles it up. 49/2 17.1 to Arafat Minhas, Over the wicket, slams it on back of a length and probing on a fourth stump line, he goes feeling for it, trying to steer it down to third man but the ball just kissed the outside edge and Shahzad pockets a low catch, lunging forward and making sure to hang onto it. Another one bites the dust. 113/9 17.6 to Sufiyan Muqeem, Tries to boom it over long-off and holes out to mid-off as Gulbadin Naib takes a regulation catch and Sufiyan is very despondent with his effort as Pakistan get skittled out for only 115! Not sure if that would be enough even though it is a bowling-friendly surface but you got to question the shot selection from some of the Pakistan batters. 115/10 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 0 | 11 | 2 | 3.66 | 12 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 0 | |
7.4 to Omair Yousuf, And another one goes! Qais tosses it up, luring the batter into the big shot and he obliges. But he doesn't hit it well at all and the ball goes high in the air and long-on takes it coming in. 54/3 9.1 to Haider Ali, Haider Ali has played all around that and Qais Ahmad has a second! Gets down on a knee to slog this away but misses and the ball pushes back middle stump. This one is slightly quicker and stays straight as Haider plays across the line. Lovely stuff from the bowler, who punches the air in delight. 61/4 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 0 | 12 | 1 | 6.00 | 5 | 0 | 1 | 0 | 0 | |
12.3 to Khushdil Shah, Oh my word, that's an incredible delivery! Pitched on an awkward back-of-a-length zone and jagged back sharply to beat his forward poke, undone by searing pace and bounce, the off-stump goes cartwheeling. What a sight for the bowler, not so much for the batter as he loses his balance and was flummoxed by the late seam movement, he looks crestfallen!. 75/6 | ||||||||||
| 3 | 0 | 20 | 2 | 6.66 | 8 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 0 | |
11.2 to Qasim Akram, And Zahir strikes! Akram picks out long-on. Pakistan are crumbling. This is pitched up on middle and Akram looks to go downtown but this is hit too flat and not nearly far enough. 71/5 13.2 to Asif Ali, Cries of catch it and taken by Qais at long-on! That is a massive wicket. He was a touch too early in his thwack down the ground and didn't account for the spin, leans back and tries to lift him over long-on but didn't get enough power and distance. Zahir Khan gives him a fiery send-off, he is absolutely pumped up!. 83/7 | ||||||||||

1.1 to Sediqullah Atal, Stone dead lbw! Strong appeal and the umpire raises the dreaded finger so the introduction of spin does the trick straight away, round-armish delivery on a fullish length and it straightens just enough to beat his forward defensive prod. That would have gone onto clatter the middle stump. 9/1 | ||||||||||

4.1 to Mohammad Shahzad, Throws it away. Round the wicket, tossed up and it's gun-barrel straight, skidding towards middle stump, not the right line to cut and he makes a mess of his stumps. That's a massive breakthrough as he's a very dangerous customer! A viscous fist-pump and a loud scream from the bowler. 35/2 4.3 to Shahidullah, Oh my goodness! That has to be the catch of the tournament! Afghanistan losing the plot, they lose their third wicket, captain leads from the front, swopping to his left from mid-on to mid-off and times his dive to perfection, snares him with a stunning grab. Another crucial breakthrough for Pakistan! . 35/3 | ||||||||||

11.5 to Noor Ali Zadran, Has he got enough of it? No, he hasn't and lobs it up in the air, it's an easy catch for Haider Ali at short fine who clings on well. That was a great cameo but Afghanistan would have dearly liked him to continue but he gets a top edge and has to take the long walk back into the pavilion. Massive moment in the game! . 71/4 | ||||||||||

12.1 to Afsar Zazai, What have you done? Another miscued shot and that's two wickets in a cluster. Afghanistan in a spot of bother now. Afsar cannot believe what he has done. That just got stuck in the surface and was pitched fuller, he leans back and tries to larrup it over midwicket but ends up giving a straightforward catch to Asif Ali around mid-on, he holds a nifty catch while taking a few steps forward. Another momentum-breaker for Afghanistan. 71/5 14.1 to Karim Janat, Over the wicket, tossed up a legbreak that spins away outside off, he shifts back and launches it down the ground but hasn't got all of it. Usman provides Pakistan another breakthrough as Asif Ali takes a wonderful catch at long-on. Afghanistan digging their own graves, not helping themselves at all by playing these high risk shots even though the equation is not that taxing for them. 84/6 | ||||||||||
