- BATSMENRB4s6sSR2.5 Gone! Imad strikes gold immediately for Pakistan. Quicker through the air again from Imad, Latham stoops low and tries to sweep it across into the vacant on-side. He cannot make the right connection as he top-edges it straight down Haris Rauf's throat at deep backward square leg. 24/113.6 It's stuck in! That's a stunning return catch from Shaheen. Fuller delivery from round the wicket, darted into middle and leg, Bowes tries to clip it away but gets a thick outside edge and the ball goes back to the bowler. Shaheen's reflexes are spot on as he sticks out his right-hand and plucks it out of thin air. Superb catch this 108/44.6 Played on! Imad strikes again for Pakistan. Shortish and slightly looped up from Imad, Young tries to swipe it across the line into the on-side but this one stays a touch low, brushes his bat's inside half and clatters into the stumps. 44/26.5 Stumped out! Excellent stuff this from Imad. He is very quick in shortening the length as he sees Mitchell dancing down the track, keeps the trajectory flat enough for the ball to sneak through the batter's willow. Rizwan collects it nicely and is very quick in whipping the bails off. 54/318.5 Skied and taken! Slower delivery in the slot, Ravindra gets inside the line and tries to loft it over the leg-side, the bat twirls in his hands and Babar gobbles it safely running from the cover region. 11th wicket of the series for Rauf and the first in front of his local crowd 164/5Extras9 (lb 4, nb 1, w 4)TOTAL164/5 (18.5 Overs, RR: 8.7)Fall of wickets: 1-24 (Tom Latham, 2.5 ov), 2-44 (Will Young, 4.6 ov), 3-54 (Daryl Mitchell, 6.5 ov), 4-108 (Chad Bowes, 13.6 ov), 5-164 (Rachin Ravindra, 18.5 ov)
