- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR18.3 Toe-ends the ball to long on! Pace off short of a length ball outside off, tries to tonk it out of the park, commits a bit late and connects the bottom part of the bat towards widish long on. Vince covered plenty of ground and took a diving catch 164/54.3 Oh my goodness! What an incredible delivery! Sends the off-stump cartwheeling! Warner goes down in a bid to slog sweep over deep backward square and played down the wrong line, ball jags away from middle and rattles his stumps. Ali Raza goes airborne and pumps his fists in elation! 35/17.4 Flicks it straight to long leg! A harmless fuller length ball on middle-leg, plays the flick shot behind square and connects it flat towards the deep fine leg fielder near the ropes. 71/212.3 Muqeem strikes!

Azam Khan's fascinating cameo comes to an end. 9th catch for Yousaf in the tournament, the most by an outfielder. 161/419.4 Low full toss outside off is dug out to mid-on and they scramble back to complete the double. That was some sharp running between the wickets. 149.6 kph. But wait, what have we here! Khushdil was already standing deep in his crease, took another step back and his back foot clipped the stumps. He's out hit wicket! 182/719.3 Wide ball sprayed outside off, 144.5 kph, extends his arms and fails to connect, the keeper collects the ball and sends an underarm throw to Ali Raza, who completes the run-out at the non-striker's end. Abbas Afridi was already halfway down the pitch, but Khushdil didn't move an inch there. 182/619.5 Sandshoe crusher on 147.2 clicks! Full and straight in the block-hole, an unplayable delivery from Ali Raza darted on the stumps. He hangs back and tries to hoick it across the line, gets nowhere near the line of the ball and crashes onto the base of the furniture! 182/819.6 He's bowled him with a 149.1 kph full toss that absolutely shatters the furniture! What a moment for the 18-year-old express pace bowler, claims his hat-trick, steaming in with a searing yorker that Hasan Ali swings at and misses by a distance.
