7.4 to J Charles, Traps him lbw! Hits him plumb in front of the stumps, was looking to sweep and missed it completely. Early through the sweep, beaten by the flight and late turn, hit him a little high on the thigh, would have gone on to hit the leg stump. Warriors in some trouble. 57/3 7.5 to Basil Hameed, Akeal you can do no wrong! Arm ball comes into the right-hander and it's a vociferous appeal for an lbw and the umpire raises the dreaded finger! Hits him on the back pad. I think it would have just shaved the leg stump so a bit unlucky.. 57/4
Trent Boult	4	0	29	2	7.25	9	2	1	1	0
4.4 to N Dickwella, Over the wicket, fuller length curving away from middle and off, early through the loft and caught at mid on by Akeal Hosein! Safe pair of hands and Niroshan Dickwella has to take the long walk back to the pavilion. Vital breakthrough, remember there is no TKC today. 34/1 16.2 to SC Williams, Gottim with an absolute peach of a knuckle ball! Pitched up slanting across slightly from middle and hits the off stump, you need something special to get better of Sean Williams and this was special, he tried to club him towards midwicket but it was just too good for thee. Magnificent bowling. 109/8
Fazalhaq Farooqi	4	0	22	1	5.50	11	3	0	0	0
15.3 to JK Fuller, Gottim with a beauty! Back of a length at an innocuous pace and the stumps are shattered, what a sight for the bowler, look away James Fuller! Pings the top of leg and batter looks very disconsolate after perishing at 4. He was advancing down the pitch and missed it on an inside-edge, that's remarkable accuracy from Farooqi. 105/7
Waqar Salamkheil	4	0	18	3	4.50	13	2	0	0	0
6.6 to M Deyal, shrieking for a lbw and up goes the finger! Tossed up on a length and it straightens towards middle stump, he attempts to sweep but hasn't connected, big appeal and umpire didn't hesitate raising his finger, doesn't appear to have any bat. Review has been taken. Impact in line, pitching in line and wickets hitting so Deyal burns a review and departs for just 9.. 55/2 13.1 to L Gregory, Rapped on the pads and prompts an appeal! Tossed up right up to the toes and he can't connect, enthusiastic appeal for an lbw and given! Gregory reviews it for the second time in this innings, he was successful on the last occasion, let's see if he's lucky on this occasion. Shaped for a sweep, it was very full. Nothing on the ultra-edge. Color code is red and the captain has to go!. 83/5 13.2 to DR Sams, Zingers are alight! Salamkheil is on fire! Sleight of hands completely befuddles him and it's a procession! Tries to go over midwicket and is deceived by the flight, guile and mastery of Waqar who is so accurate! He was mighty impressive in last year's Major League Cricket and lives up to the credo in ILT20 as well. What a player to have in your side!. 83/6
Muhammad Rohid	2	0	15	1	7.50	5	1	1	0	0
17.4 to MRJ Watt, Suckered him with a hard-length slower ball on off, he shimmies down and miscues the skier to Tim David at mid-off, didn't get all of it on this occasion. 118/9

5.3 to Muhammad Waseem, That has been sent miles in the air and Sean Williams takes a staggering catch at midwicket region, that was swirling in the air, but he kept his eyes locked on the ball and tracked all the way from the bat, reverse-cupped it really well. He was trying to hit across the line and was ruffled by the pace and steep away angle.. 80/1
James Fuller	2	0	18	1	9.00	5	0	2	1	0
8.1 to MDKJ Perera, Through the gate from over the wicket and the off-stump goes cartwheeling! Awkward back of a length zone, skids through the surface and crashed the middle of off stump, wow, that's a beautiful sight for a fast bowler, Fletcher tries to flick it across the angle and sees his stumps getting rearranged.. 90/2
