10.2 I’m TB Robinson, Launches height into the night sky but hasn’t got the distance! How often have we seen that happen in T20 cricket, wicket straight after the pause. It was a full-bunger on middle, he saw the opportunity and swung lustily across the line, Iftikhar Ahmed perched on the edge of the boundary at long-on hang on to it brilliantly and after taking a few looks, third umpire confirms it’s a clean catch, New Zealand have lost a few wickets in a cluster, window is open to pick a couple more to prevent a colossal total. Tim Robinson has done his job though, batted beautifully for his half-century. 94/two
18.5 I’m M. G. Bracewell, Iftikhar Ahmed cartoons in from the deep at long-off and pockets the catch low down, wheels off in a jubilation. It was full on a suffocating off-stump line, shovels it into the air and Iftikhar takes a stupendous diving catch, brilliant anticipation, Pakistan has been switched on in the field today. Captain has played a good hand, Neesham will have to take the responsibility now. 169/5
18.6 I’m JA Clarkson, Sounds the death rattle! That is a perfection execution of a yorker, demolished him with a searing inswinging yorker on middle, too good for thee, goes without troubling the scorers, It’s been a magnificent spell from Abbas! He jammed the bat down an eternity after the stumps were flattened. 169/6
