    0.2 Gottim! Saim Ayub lured by the tempter angled in from outside off and he tentatively pokes at it, edges it to Gurbaz who dived to his left and pouched it well! It was an incredible delivery and Saim was caught in two minds whether to go hard at it or steer it down to point and takes the long walk back into pavilion 0/1
    3.3 Edged and taken! A rash swat and he nicks it to the keeper, playing away from his body with minimal feet movement, a scorching delivery in the corridor and Pakistan invite more trouble. Jubilation for Afghanistan though, they have been superb so far, picking wickets and making life tough for Pakistan batters 20/3
    0.3 Goes full and hits the pads as he tries to flick it down leg, that looks stone dead, no deflection on ultra-edge and Abdullah Shafique goes without troubling the scorers, three reds and what a over it is turning out to be for Farooqi! He has been spot on! Farooqi is on a hat-trick! 0/2
    9.5 Goes up in the air, two men under it, Omarzai tracks the ball from the bat, through the air, towards him and then into his hand, superb work at square leg, he had to cover a lot of distance and Tayyab has to go! He knew the moment he hit that he mistimed it. This was pitched short and didn't rise as much as Tayyab anticipated, he went for the hook looking a bit ungainly, not on top of the bounce and this is a timely wicket for Afghanistan as the partnership was starting to look dangerous 60/4

    10.6 Traps his lbw! Azam Khan contemplates taking a review, consults Imad and then decides to take the long walk back towards the dressing room, it was a superb googly that kept low and tenderised his pads as he was just rooted back in his crease, umpire took his time before raising the dreaded finger. Rashid Khan rejoices as Pakistan stare into the abyss. This is vintage Rashid, spinning a web around batters, suffocating them with his bag of tricks. Rashid you can do no wrong! 63/5
    19.6 Deep square leg has come up in the ring. Full and wide yorker, carved away to deep third and Shadab hurries off for the second, puts in a full-length dive and the third umpire is taking a look at it from different angles, just fails to make his ground by a few milimeters and Pakistan finish on 130 130/6
