- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.2 tickled to the keeper! This time Hangargekar gets Ayub. No foot movement from the left-hander, as the ball, on the shorter side of a length, landed close to off, and moved away after pitching. Ayub reached out to push, and got an outside edge. Jurel behind the stumps just went to his left to grab that 9/112.4 a poor long hop gets Parag a big wicket! It wasn't just a short ball, it was even going down leg, but Sahibzada Farhan was lured into a pull on the leg side with protection in the deep. He opens up on the back foot, doesn't get the distance with his pull, and deep square leg takes it nicely to his right 45/34 another one in the over! Hangargekar has Bin nicking behind too. This one was a faint outside edge, but the bowler and keeper knew right away. Fuller side of a length outside off, angling in to end closer to off. Bin went to defend, but got an outside edge behind, as India strike again 9/223 bowled him! A wonderful left-arm spinner's ball from around the wicket to a left-hand batter. Suthar removes two batters in the over, as this ball hits the top of off. It was pitched on the fuller side of a length just outside off, as Haseebullah took a good stride forward to try and defend. But he was beaten by the little bit of turn back in, as Suthar hit his off stump 78/522.4 this time stumped by the turn, in every sense of the word! Suthar strikes immediately after beating Ghulam last ball. It was loopy, full and dipping on a middle-stump line, as Ghulam leaned into an attempted push. But the ball turned away slowly to beat his outside edge, even as his back foot dragged outside the crease. And Jurel clipped the bails hurriedly 77/426.5 easy catch for short midwicket! Haris falls too, as Suthar gets his third. He kept going for his shots, as this time he tried to slog sweep this full ball on the stumps. But I think the length was a bit too full for that shot, as he got a top edge, with the ball ballooning up for a comfortable take 95/645.4 what a grab by short third! Rana the fielder there, as he plucks one out of nowhere. This is what he did: he leapt at a ball travelling over him, while stretching his right hand up. The ball stuck, and he fell to the ground. It was a good length ball from Hangargekar, which bounced appreciably and angled across to end wide of off. Akram threw his bat at it, but the ball flew behind off the top edge 191/837.5 given out quickly! The arm ball lands on a fullish length around off and goes straight through. Hurries the batter to defend forward but he's been beaten by the skiddiness of it. 148/747.2 full toss on off, and skied towards extra cover, where Jose tumbles to his right to complete the catch. The ball was dropping over his shoulders, but he kept his eyes on it, while running forward and diving to take it 201/948 appeal for caught behind, and the umpire raises his finger belatedly. Five wickets for Hangargekar. Short of a length on middle and leg, and angling across while climbing nicely on to the batter. Dahani seemed to have a stab half-heartedly, and gloved it to the keeper 205/10Extras1 (lb 1)TOTAL205 all out (48 Overs, RR: 4.27)Fall of wickets: 1-9 (Saim Ayub, 3.2 ov), 2-9 (Omair Yousuf, 3.6 ov), 3-45 (Sahibzada Farhan, 12.4 ov), 4-77 (Kamran Ghulam, 22.4 ov), 5-78 (Haseebullah Khan, 22.6 ov), 6-95 (Mohammad Haris, 26.5 ov), 7-148 (Mubasir Khan, 37.5 ov), 8-191 (Qasim Akram, 45.4 ov), 9-201 (Mohammad Wasim, 47.2 ov), 10-205 (Shahnawaz Dahani, 47.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR11.1 chopped on! Pakistan get the breakthrough, but hang on... the umpires are checking for a front-foot no-ball. And replays had it tightly right, with his front foot strangely twisting as he planted it. Anyway, it was a full ball outside off, wide enough for Abhishek to not entirely execute his attempted sweep shot. He still went for it though, but ended up getting a bottom edge on to off stump 58/130.2 partnership 99 and out! Shortens his length on middle and off. Jose thought it would be fuller so he came charging down for a big shot. Beaten altogether, ball turns past the edge, and this time the keeper whips the bails off successfully. Success for Pakistan but Jose walks back after a well-compiled 53. 157/2Extras12 (lb 7, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL210/2 (36.4 Overs, RR: 5.72)Fall of wickets: 1-58 (Abhishek Sharma, 11.1 ov), 2-157 (Nikin Jose, 30.2 ov)
