Naveed to Raza, out Bowled!! Misses a length ball and the leg-stick has been knocked back. Went across the line as he tried slogging it and ended up missing it completely. Naveed is a happy man and this will certainly make a difference of at least 15-20 runs. Raza b Naveed 51(42) [4s-5]

Naveed to Raza, FOUR, what a way to bring up your fifty! This has been a terrific rearguard knock from the Zimbabwean. That was slower and shorter, the batsman stayed back to slap the cut past point for a four

Naveed to Udana, SIX, Udana wants to push his luck more. Short ball, takes it on and pulls the ball wide of long-on for a sixer. Good connection despite the ball getting big on him. The score breaks the 100 run barrier

Waqar Salamkheil to Udana, 2 runs, would be harsh to call that a drop! BMac at long-on really was close to the ropes as he took a step after taking the catch. But he knew he will go over the ropes and threw the ball away back into play. Udana come back for a double

Waqar Salamkheil to Afridi, out Caught by Asghar Afghan!! Boom Boom Afridi departs for a duck. It was a tossed up delivery and at the stumps, Afridi dances down to come close to the ball. He fails to do so and it comes off the outside half of the bat. It had no elevation and no distance. Asghar Afghan runs back from cover and takes a good catch. Afridi c Asghar Afghan b Waqar Salamkheil 0(2)

Waqar Salamkheil to Shenwari, out Lbw!! Shenwari lbw b Waqar Salamkheil 8(10) [4s-1] Umpire Bismillah Jan Shinwari took an eternity to raise his finger. That's his style, I guess. Shenwari picks up the wrong delivery to sweep, it was too full and he ends up making no contact. He was rapped on the pads and it looked plumb. The umpire took a long time but eventually raised his finger.

Karim Janat to Rahmanullah Gurbaz, out Caught by Brendon McCullum!! Another wicket and Panthers are in serious trouble now. It was a slower delivery outside off, Rahmanullah Gurbaz wanted to smash it over the ropes.

Sadiq to Ihsanullah, out Caught by Shirzad!! This is a soft dismissal. It was a fuller length delivery at the stumps, it keeps low a touch and Ihsanullah gets no elevation on the shot.

Sadiq to Ihsanullah, SIX, what timing on this shot. He hardly put any power on this shot but the timing on that lofted shot straight down the ground was so good that it sails over the ropes

Naveed to Mohammad Shahzad, out Caught by Najibullah!! Oh dear, Mohammad Shahzad is stunned, he can't believe it at all. He is still standing in disbelief.
