- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.4 well Umar Akmal needn't beat himself up for that drop! Soon after being let off, Wade chases a full and wide delivery outside off and drags it to his stumps, not exactly a wicket-taking delivery though, the shot didn't come off right 8/119.5 and the long, long vigil comes to an end! Pitching on the leg and middle, hitting on the pad and struck low on the pads. Ticks all the boxes required to dole out an LBW decision. Ajmal is ecstatic. Warner is asked,by his captain, if he wants to use the referral, but he refuses it 74/222.6 Clarke's been given lbw and he is reviewing it, lands quite wide outside off and spins back in sharply and hits the top flap of his pad, umpire Llong gave him out and Clarke asked for it to be reviewed because it was a question of the height, replays showed the ball just clipping the top of leg stump, Llong's decision stands 86/345.1 Ajmal its the timber, tossed up on middle and it was a tired slog from Hussey, swished and missed it completely and the middle stump is pushed back 211/623.3 Pakistan have struck with two lbws in quick succession! Hussey looked a bit surprised, he was a long way across his stumps and hence exposed the leg stump and a part of middle, the ball spun back in and hit him low on the pads, umpire Ahsan Raza was convinced, Australia have already used up their review 87/437.1 soft dismissal! Rehman tossed it up on middle and off and Bailey was looking to chip it to the on side but ended up spooning it back to the bowler 153/545.5 Ajmal has picked up two for the over! Maxwell was down the pitch to hammer it straight but he didn't pick the doosra from round the wicket, missed it completely and an easy stumping for Kamran 214/748.5 that was a sharp catch by Jamshed! Christian fetched that from outside off and pulled it flat and fast towards deep midwicket, Jamshed ran across to his right and plucked the ball on the dive 235/848.6 ends his spell with two wickets in as many balls! Junaid bowled that full and straight on the stumps, Johnson had a wild swing and missed it completely, crashed onto off and middle 235/9Extras19 (lb 9, nb 5, w 5)TOTAL248/9 (50 Overs, RR: 4.96)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Matthew Wade, 1.4 ov), 2-74 (David Warner, 19.5 ov), 3-86 (Michael Clarke, 22.6 ov), 4-87 (David Hussey, 23.3 ov), 5-153 (George Bailey, 37.1 ov), 6-211 (Michael Hussey, 45.1 ov), 7-214 (Glenn Maxwell, 45.5 ov), 8-235 (Dan Christian, 48.5 ov), 9-235 (Mitchell Johnson, 48.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR11.1 Hafeez has fallen for the trap! There was a fielder at deep square leg and he hit it straight to him, it was short outside off and Hafeez chose to club it across the line, ended up pulling it flat and Mike Hussey did well to catch it on the fall, the wet ball could so easily have slipped out 66/127.5 he's fallen three short of a century! Johnson pitched it up outside the off stump, Jamshed wanted to clear the infield again on seeing mid-off up, didn't time it at all and didn't get the elevation, tamely chipped it to Starc who took it easily falling forward at mid-off 167/234.2 timber! The middle stump is flattened, Shafiq reaches out a drive a length ball through the off side, gets a thick inside edge and his middle stump is knocked back by a couple of yards 190/3Extras26 (lb 6, w 20)TOTAL249/3 (43.4 Overs, RR: 5.7)Fall of wickets: 1-66 (Mohammad Hafeez, 11.1 ov), 2-167 (Nasir Jamshed, 27.5 ov), 3-190 (Asad Shafiq, 34.2 ov)
