    6.2 Terrific delivery, bowls a bamboozling legbreak that turned back insanely from wide of off, it was too close to cut and he could't break free, gets an inside edge onto the stumps, this is quality leg-spin bowling, great move from Shan to bring on another spinner. Good wicket at this stage because Saim can be very dangerous with his stylish strokeplay 55/1
    13.5 Botch-up! Stays deep and works it off his pads towards long-on with soft hands, Zahid runs back and gets rid of the ball quickly, reels in an accurate throw to Shan Masood at the non-striker's end who whips off the bails in a jiffy and Babar Azam is short by half a meter, that is horrible mix-up, poor call! He will be gutted to lose his wicket after doing all the hard work. A timely scalp for Karachi, they've an opportunity to restrict them on a subpar score. It's been a fabulous innings nevertheless in tricky spin-friendly conditions 101/4
    10.5 Sliced in the air and taken by Arafat Minhas behind point, tracks the ball from the bat, through the air, towards him and then into his hand. That was pitched on a hard length and not that pacy, rose steeply off the deck and he was in an uncomfortable position, he had to play at it and ends up miscuing it altogether, Arafat hangs on to a good catch. Excellent nettlesome bowling 79/2
    12.1 Slogged straight into the safe cozy hands of Irfan Niazi at deep midwicket, he didn't have to move a muscle to gobble that up. Spinners would love to ball on a track like this. Floated up on middle, inviting him to bludgeons him through the leg-side, he obliges and gets very little elevation. 83/3
    16.5 Aiming for the wide yorker, not quite in the blockhole, he spanks it in the air and Arafat Minhas takes another superb catch down his throat at deep point, he barely had to move out there, he's a confident young cricketer, hasn't shown any nerves at all. That was in the slot to be hit but he didn't have much pace to work with and couldn't place it in the gap. 113/5
    19.4 Short of a length at middle, gets on top of the bounce and clobbers a back-foot pull between long on and deep midwicket, Powell puts in a full-length dive, gives his best, but is short of the crease, what a stupendous effort from Seifert who went airborne and removed the bails, incredible piece of glovework 145/6

    10.3 Pleasing relentlessly for an lbw appeal and Faisal can't resist the temptation to raise the dreaded finger, that was a slower off-cutter that hit him on the unmentionables, he was early through the flick, looked right in front of the stumps, looks like they've run out of time for the review and Tim Seifert starts to take the long walk back to the pavilion. Just ran out of time, Shan and team manager are not impressed with that. It may have missed hitting the leg stump, was a little high, anyway it's all too late now. The player of the match of the last game Irfan Niazi will come in next. Ball tracker shows it just brushed the leg-stump 68/3
    8.5 Short and thumped hard into the surface with plenty of width on offer, he latches onto it and it lobs but it has carried to TKC at cover who ran back and gobbled it up gleefully, only wickets can keep them alive in this contest, need couple more to amplify pressure 61/1
    9.2 BOWLED HIM, WOW! Some air and it drops an amazing, gripping, shredding off-break that landed full on middle and turned just enough to nudge the off-stump, zingers are lit and Shan has to go. That is a heavenly delivery. Nothing wrong about it. Sneaked through the gate and created a tough angle to negotiate for the southpaw. Saim showing his value as an all-rounder. Important wicket at a crucial juncture 62/2
    17.2 Wrecked the stumps! Came wide of the crease, fractionally shorter and just goes with the angle, uproots the off-stump, that is a cracking delivery, steps up to the plate when his team needed him, this is such a massive breakthrough, it was crucial for Karachi to have him till the end, set batter goes back in the hut. Fired up celebration from Naveen, punched the air in ecstasy, he has produced a crackerjack! Is that the ballgame gone for Karachi? 117/4

    18.4 That is a massive moment in the game! It nestled in the hands of Powell who kept his eyes locked on the ball at long-on and the ball was sent miles into the Karachi night-sky, he tumbled but made sure the ball remains safely inside his hands. It was a well-disguised slower delivery in his hitting arc, he took the bait and slugged it downtown, didn't look like he got enough and he has to go. Still some batting to come, can Anwar Ali roll the years back and hit a few out of the park? 126/5
