- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR8.1 Soft dismissal! Skipper gets skipper, a similar sight in this edition of the PSL. Length ball flighted outside off, plays the slog sweep and hits it away from the body, and he only manages to connect the leading edge towards the backward point ring area for a simple catch to Haider Ali. 71/24.6 Leading edge and taken! 128.4 clicks back of a length ball on the stumps, plays the flick shot a bit too early and catches the outside part of the bat, gifting a regulation catch to the extra cover ring fielder. 50/110.2 Imad strikes! Flatter length ball on middle-leg, plays the slog sweep and doesn't quite get hold of it, picking out the deep square leg fielder near the ropes. 88/311.4 Bowled'em with a peach! Generously flighted length ball on middle-off and turning away sharply, plays across the line off the front foot and misses the line and length, clips the top of the off stump and Shadab is pumped up! 93/411.5 Golden duck on PSL debut! Flighted good length ball on the stumps, plays off the front foot, fails to keep it down and chips it back to the bowler with the sticker part of the bat, and Shadab pouches it comfortably. 93/5Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL183/5 (20 Overs, RR: 9.15)Fall of wickets: 1-50 (Shamyl Hussain, 4.6 ov), 2-71 (Saud Shakeel, 8.1 ov), 3-88 (Khawaja Nafay, 10.2 ov), 4-93 (Ben McDermott, 11.4 ov), 5-93 (Bevon Jacobs, 11.5 ov)

- BATSMENRB4s6sSR4.6 sliced and taken! Hung up on a length wide outside off. Conway reaches out for it but is too far away to do anything meaningful with it. Slices it tamely and Daniyal at short third completes the simplest of catches! 44/16.5 castled! Gous deceived completely here. Googly on a length just outside off. Gous does not pick it and is beaten in the air too. Goes searching for it in front of his body and leaves a huge gap between bat and pad. The ball bursts through, continues spinning and knocks back leg stump! 61/2Extras18 (lb 7, w 11)TOTAL189/2 (18.2 Overs, RR: 10.3)Fall of wickets: 1-44 (Devon Conway, 4.6 ov), 2-61 (Andries Gous, 6.5 ov)
