- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3.4 excellent catch on the follow through! Who'd say he's 37, eh? Full on off and it's been smacked straight back to the bowler. Very less reaction time, but that's enough for Sami. Sticks both hands out to his right, and the ball stays put in his right hand. Sami's down on the floor, but the ball's safe with him 17/117.4 how unfortunate is that. End of a lovely little innings though. This was full on off, he went deep into the crease to squeeze this out but in the process ended up nudging the stumps with his back foot. 128/43.6 short on middle and leg, Babar makes room on the leg side, but Sami follows him. Tries to pull, but he's in no position to attempt that. Sliced off the bat's bottom half, and taken comfortably at mid off. Duminy won't put those down 17/28.1 soft dismissal! Out first ball. Back of a length on leg stump, and Morgan punches this away from his body. Comes off the bat's top half, and pouched by midwicket. What a celebration from the bowler.

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR6.6 Taken at cover! Full and wide outside off, and Farhan goes chasing after it. Tries to carve this over cover, but slices that shot. Finally a catch that's held on 91/110.4 finally, a catch taken! Short and wide outside off, but Hales pulls. Takes the top edge and goes almost for a six, but just short in the end. Mills slides across the ground on his knees to complete the catch 130/2Extras4 (lb 1, w 3)TOTAL155/2 (12.3 Overs, RR: 12.4)Fall of wickets: 1-91 (Sahibzada Farhan, 6.6 ov), 2-130 (Alex Hales, 10.4 ov)
