- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR4.2 Uprooted the stump! A peach of a delivery from Daisy! Back of a length ball nips back in on the stumps after hitting the deck hard. Rizwan gets stuck in the crease, caught in two minds whether to commit to the front or back foot. In the end, he leaves a massive gap between bat and pad, allowing the ball to sneak through the gate and shatter the furniture, uprooting the off stump. 20/22.2 Bowled'em! A fraction short of a length ball pitching on middle-leg stump and turning in, clears the front leg and goes for the big heave across the line, kept a bit low and Khawaja misses the length. The ball brushes off the thigh pad and crashes onto the stumps. 200th T20 wicket for Glenn Maxwell! 11/113.4 Flicks it straight to the fielder! Full and straight angling in on the stumps, shuffles across and gets inside the line of the ball, toe-ends the ball across the line and picks out Sadaqat at deep midwicket near the ropes. 62/55.3 More trouble for Pindiz! Hard length ball on the sixth stump line, 137.4 kph, plays the square cut away from the body, catches the under-edge and a regulation grab for Usman behind the stumps. 23/39.3 Edged and taken! Hard length ball on middle-leg, 138.8 kph, moves away from the wicket to create room, plays the cover drive late and connects the thickish outside edge to the wicketkeeper behind the stumps. 41/416.5 Mehmood has the last laugh! Slight pace off and bowls a fuller length delivery right on the money, wild swing of the bat by Billings across the line, connects with thin air and the bails are flying! 97/714.6 quicker good length ball on the stumps, pushes with soft hands towards cover and sets off for a quick single. Labuschagne is lightning-quick in the field; he gathers the ball cleanly and fires a direct hit at the keeper's end. Masood is caught well short of his crease; he keeps running and throws his bat into the air in a moment of desperate frustration. 74/617.5 Hunain strikes! Back of a length ball on the off stump line, plays through the line of the ball, tries to clear the infield, connects the sticker part of the bat and finds the mid-off fielder inside the circle. 108/818.6 Miles up in the air and Maxi pouches it! Length ball around off, dances down the track and heaves it in the air, connects the toe end of the bat and Maxwell settles underneath at mid-off to complete the catch. 113/9Extras5 (lb 4, w 1)TOTAL121/9 (20 Overs, RR: 6.05)Fall of wickets: 1-11 (Usman Khawaja, 2.2 ov), 2-20 (Mohammad Rizwan, 4.2 ov), 3-23 (Daryl Mitchell, 5.3 ov), 4-41 (Abdullah Fazal, 9.3 ov), 5-62 (Yasir Khan, 13.4 ov), 6-74 (Saad Masood, 14.6 ov), 7-97 (Sam Billings, 16.5 ov), 8-108 (Mubasir Khan, 17.5 ov), 9-113 (Ben Sears, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR0.5 Sadaqat departs! Quicker, back of a length delivery outside the off-stump. The batter backs away and attempts a square cut, but only manages to splice it to the right of the short third man. The fielder moves quickly, diving to his right at the edge of the circle to complete a sharp catch. 4/18.6 Massive appeal from Masood, and the umpire is not interested! Slower through the air on the stumps. Labuschagne plays off the front foot across the line and does not connect, striking the side of the front pad. Rizwan sends it upstairs, though. No bat is involved, confirmed by the Ultra Edge. All three reds on the ball tracking, and hitting the leg stump! A brilliant review taken by the Pindiz, and they have gotten the big wicket of Labuschagne! 68/44.1 Soft dismissal! Tossed up a fuller length ball on the pads, plays the paddle sweep and connects the inner part of the bat, chipping it to Amir at short fine leg. Poor stroke from Ayub and he trudges off slowly back to the dugout. 28/25.4 Usman gone for a duck! He found it quite difficult out there today, which has been a consistent theme for him with the bat throughout the tournament. Geez! That was a terrible knock! Short pitched ball angling in on the stumps, he walks forward and plays with the full swing of the bat, connects the inner part of the bat and hits it straight to the short midwicket fielder. 29/39.2 Cleaned him up with a ripper! Back of a length ball on middle-off, straightens just enough after hitting the deck hard to beat the outside part of Maxwell's bat. Maxwell was stuck inside the crease off the back foot and got nowhere near the line of the ball. 69/5Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL123/5 (16.3 Overs, RR: 7.45)Fall of wickets: 1-4 (Maaz Sadaqat, 0.5 ov), 2-28 (Saim Ayub, 4.1 ov), 3-29 (Usman Khan, 5.4 ov), 4-68 (Marnus Labuschagne, 8.6 ov), 5-69 (Glenn Maxwell, 9.2 ov)
