- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.1 beauty! The shape away has done the trick. Tamim is squared up by the late movement, pokes at this as he closes the face in trying to turn it to the leg side and the wicketkeeper dives forward to complete an excellent catch. 27/21.4 late swing back in does the trick for Amir. This is full on middle, Kamran plays outside the line as he tries to play towards mid-on. The ball bends in to beat the inside edge and smash into the pad. Would've hit middle and leg. 16/16.6 the contest is won by Boom Boom as Hafeez has hit this half-volley straight to extra cover. He wanted to go over the top but didn't get the elevation. The need to find the boundary was brought about by the string of dots. Afridi has his arms aloft as his team-mates give him a hug 38/39.4 makes room to go over cover, ends up slicing this straight to Mills at third man. Irfan slaps his thigh - almost Shikhar Dhawan like - in celebration. Zalmi slide further 53/411.3 terrible, terrible mix-up and Karachi couldn't have had their fifth wicket easier. Total confusion.This was a yorker which Smith dug out, he ran halfway down the pitch, then stopped and then left his partner high and dry as he crossed over to the other end, literally selling Ibtisam down the river. 59/513.4 pulls this slower ball on the bounce to short fine, Sammy wanted the single but Smith just didn't respond. Sammy was left with no option but to turn back. Smith is at fault because it was Sammy's call. Second run-out that Smith has been involved in tonight. Very poor. 69/614.4 big appeal for lbw, but the umpire raced away from his position. Afridi couldn't believe what he just saw and went for the review immediately. This one drifted into middle, spun away a wee bit to beat his pull. Struck on the back thigh. This looked plumb to the naked eye, not sure why the umpire thought otherwise. Decision overturned on DRS 77/715.4 top-edges this pull and fine leg didn't have to move an inch. The horror story continues. Tried to fetch this from way outside off. Jordan's a better batsman than that 79/818.3 bottom-handed whip down to long-on, they were always racing against a flat throw to complete the second, there was no way Wahab would've made it. Irfan collects the throw cleanly and whips the bails off. 110/9Extras7 (nb 1, w 6)TOTAL131/9 (20 Overs, RR: 6.55)Fall of wickets: 1-16 (Kamran Akmal, 1.4 ov), 2-27 (Tamim Iqbal, 3.1 ov), 3-38 (Mohammad Hafeez, 6.6 ov), 4-53 (Haris Sohail, 9.4 ov), 5-59 (Ibtisam Sheikh, 11.3 ov), 6-69 (Daren Sammy, 13.4 ov), 7-77 (Umaid Asif, 14.4 ov), 8-79 (Chris Jordan, 15.4 ov), 9-110 (Wahab Riaz, 18.3 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR1.6 ramped to Ibtisam who takes a stunner at short third man. It's never easy with those, he had to run around at least 20 yards forward from his position. He was on the move as he dived low but he still managed to hang on. Stunning. 17/112.2 soft dismissal. Charges down the pitch to pull but Jordan dishes in the short ball and cramps him for room, he goes through with the stroke and top-edges the return catch back to Jordan. Easily taken 87/38.3 driven straight to Sammy who takes a sharp catch at cover. Credit to young Ibtisam for tossing this up, Babar was lured into the drive, struck it well alright but found the fielder. 58/214.4 the grand old man Hafeez has taken a magnificent catch at deep midwicket. Ingram steps out and nails this whip, there was a danger that Hafeez may have been just a touch in but he saw this ball flying away and timed his dive to perfection to take the catch even as it was curling away from him. 99/419.3 there's the wicket and the game is alive or what? Drama. Nicely tossed up, the ball dips on him, Rizwan looks for the glory hit but fails to get to the pitch of the ball and ends up hitting it straight down Jordan's throat at long-off. 129/5Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL135/5 (19.4 Overs, RR: 6.86)Fall of wickets: 1-17 (Khurram Manzoor, 1.6 ov), 2-58 (Babar Azam, 8.3 ov), 3-87 (Joe Denly, 12.2 ov), 4-99 (Colin Ingram, 14.4 ov), 5-129 (Mohammad Rizwan, 19.3 ov)
