0.1 Hasan Ali to Lendl Simmons, They run the first hard, they come for two, the fielder has the ball, they call for the third...will they get there!?! The throw is in, it's wide, the batsman makes the dive...and he's in! Excellent running, and poor fielding. 3 more! (4)

0.3 Hasan Ali to Babar Azam, No Ball. Perfect yorker on the leg stump. (0)

0.4 Hasan Ali to Babar Azam, The batsman calls for a single, but hesitates and nearly gets his partner run out! An effort that would make Owais Shah proud! No run. (0)
0.5 Hasan Ali to Babar Azam, Edged and over the slip fielder! Two runs while third man tidies up. (2)
0.6 Hasan Ali to Babar Azam, Full, wide, the batsman flails at it and finds the edge! But the ball flies between the keeper and slip, who just stare at each other as the ball runs away for four! Unlucky! (4)
