- BATSMENRB4s6sSR11.4 length ball, just outside off from around the wicket. Babar tries to tickle this late down to third man, but he can't get the connection. Through to the keeper, but Rumman believes that Babar's edged this. IU review! Is there an edge? Looks like there's a touch off Babar's toe-end! Brilliant call by Rumman. Babar is out! 108/33.3 top-edged! The ride comes to an end. Ronchi makes no mistake 52/110.3 gone! Tossed up on off, and he goes for a big shot. Splices this slog, and Faheem - at long on - makes no mistake 102/215.2 pulled, but holes out! Back of a length on off, and he swivels to pull. Struck well, but straight to the sweeper fielder 139/416.2 oh dear, Karachi! Around the wicket to Dunk, length ball angling into the left-hander, and he splices a leg-side swipe only to long on 144/615.5 you beauty, Musa! Back of a length outside off, and he tries to drag a pulled shot. Mistimed, and straight down the throat of the fielder at cow corner. 141/517.2 bull's eye! Sami races after the ball after the yorker was played to the leg side. The batsman do a bit of a yes-no-yes-no, and Sami takes aim at the bowler's end 151/718.5 full outside leg stump, and muscled away to deep midwicket. They want the second, or do they? Imad says no, and then says yes, and that means Amir is struggling at the batsman's end. Flat throw, quick glovework, and Karachi lose their eighth. Imad wasn't decisive enough there 158/819 one brings two! Collapso. Yorker on leg stump, and he goes across the stumps to flick fine. He misses, and Faheem clips leg stump 158/9Extras3 (lb 1, nb 1, w 1)TOTAL161/9 (20 Overs, RR: 8.05)Fall of wickets: 1-52 (Colin Munro, 3.3 ov), 2-102 (Liam Livingstone, 10.3 ov), 3-108 (Babar Azam, 11.4 ov), 4-139 (Colin Ingram, 15.2 ov), 5-141 (Iftikhar Ahmed, 15.5 ov), 6-144 (Ben Dunk, 16.2 ov), 7-151 (Aamer Yamin, 17.2 ov), 8-158 (Mohammad Amir, 18.5 ov), 9-158 (Umer Khan, 18.6 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR3 what a wicket! Yorker on middle, and Ronchi backs away to muscle a shot. Tries to drill this through the covers, but mis-hits only to mid on 19/18.1 straight to long on! Length ball outside off, and he flat-bats this with the turn. Doesn't have the elevation though, and Babar stays on the boundary to pouch a difficult catch 63/215.4 what a wicket to take! Karachi are back in the game. Babar Azam makes amends. Length ball angling in, and he's sliced a flat-batted pull once again. Straight to long on. Disappointment for Hales; Karachi is jubilant. Nearly a no-ball for front foot, but he's ok 114/48.3 Full on off and this turns across the batsman. Walton presses forward to defend, but the ball takes an outside edge and Dunk does really well to hold on 63/317 Shinwari, you beauty! Not full enough for the long-handle swipe, and he's sliced this slog. Babar at long on gets underneath it, and Shinwari takes a crucial wicket 129/519.2 goes for the glory shot, but taken at deep point! Full and wide outside off, and he clatters this over point. Yamin takes a brilliant sliding catch to send Faheem back 160/6Extras7 (w 7)TOTAL164/6 (19.3 Overs, RR: 8.41)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Luke Ronchi, 2.6 ov), 2-63 (Cameron Delport, 8.1 ov), 3-63 (Chadwick Walton, 8.3 ov), 4-114 (Alex Hales, 15.4 ov), 5-129 (Hussain Talat, 16.6 ov), 6-160 (Faheem Ashraf, 19.2 ov)
