    12.2 Warner holes out, has to be counted as a soft dismissal. Bowls it quicker and a tad short, he goes back to pull it over deep midwicket. But the ball skids on, which means he lobs it straight to long-on. Just the breakthrough Pakistan were searching for 83/1
    14.1 gets the wicket! Lovely bowling, that. Lands on middle and off and shapes away, getting a faint outside edge that carries to Iftikhar at first slip, who clings on to a sharp chance 92/2
    24.1 and he gets a wicket here, too! We were talking about wicket-takers in the middle overs, and Haris is the first port of call for that. Smith looks to close his bat face and ease it through the onside, but gets a little whisper of an outside edge 153/4
    23.2 Nawaz gets Labuschagne first ball! Angling in from around the wicket, gripping and spinning away to take the outside edge. Haris takes a sharp catch and though the batter isn't happy, think that's frustration at himself rather than the decision 151/3
    29.1 Huge mix-up and that's that for Carey. Slower through the air outside off, slapped to cover. Maxwell just took a couple of steps forward but retreated as soon as he spotted Shadab get to the ball. But Carey was a long way down and the throw was spot on to the bowler 172/5
    40.5 wrong'un rips back in at pace, and he defends 255/6

    48.5 Inglis finally falls two short of a sensational half-century. Clubbed it hard to extra cover, where Imam took a sharp catch. Barely any celebrations from Pakistan but an outstanding innings from Inglis comes to an end. Australia were stuttering after Maxwell fell and he's revived them in no time 338/7

    6.4 Maxwell is on the board and Fakhar's evening with the bat ends. Tossed up on a length outside off, he charges down and looks to go down town. But his bat face is closed and ends up getting a top edge straight uip in the air. Warner runs back from cover-point to take that safely 47/2
    5.1 Edged and taken! Imam is out of here. The wobble seam does the batter in. Lands it on a back of a length, angling it away outside off. Imam is squared up a touch and goes back and pokes at it. Gets a thick outside edge and it is a simple take for Carey. Imam looked really good, but has to depart early 35/1
    11.3 Top-edged and gone! Length ball outside off, Shafique looks to pull it straight back over the bowler. Only skies it up for Warner at mid-off to settle under it and pouch it. Does the famous 'Pushpa' movie celebration and smiles. Shafique's stay has not much to write home about 62/3
    31.4 and Iftikhar finally, FINALLY, holes out to long-on, where a smart catch from Green ends Iftikhar's innings of two halves. The 83 off 85 flatters him a bit, but he'll take it 227/5
    15 Shadab goes, pays the price for timing it rather too well. Tossed up again, he is deceived a bit in the flight. Looks to take the aerial route but middles it straight down long-off's throat. 83/4

    46 And that's that for Nawaz. Marsh digs in another offcutter, he looks to ramp it over short third. Gets a top edge straight to Warner there. 326/8
    38 and Cummins strikes first over back! Slower delivery gets a top edge and it flies up for the easiest catch to Carey behind the stumps. Australia looking to close this out once more 269/6
    41.5 Finds deep midwicket to perfection! Back of a length ball around off, Mir goes back and nails the pull... almost. Finds Warner at the fence. He did not initially pick and, belatedly charged in and took it with a slide 301/7
    47.4 Excellent catch from Marsh and Australia win! Tossed up around off, Hasan smacks it high towards long-off. Marsh covers good ground and takes it with a slide. 337/9
