    0.1 gone first ball! Gleeson has struck with hard length. Sadakat tried to go across the line, got a big leading edge with floated out to deep third, where Imad takes it low but at a comfortable height, having judged it nicely and run in from the rope. This was a length ball, maybe a little jag away, but tight into off stump. Sadakat had tried to crash it over midwicket 0/1
    2.2 he's definitely nicked that! It's a big edge to slip, who catches the ball near midriff. This is length, swinging away, and Marnus goes for a booming drive without his feet going towards the ball (in fact he was bacjung away) and the edge is the result. Lovely bowling from Gleeson so far, who is making the most of the movement on offer. Kingsmen in trouble early, but they do love to fight back. 11/2
    4.4 what a spell Gleeson is bowling! Saim's average season continues. This was a short one over the stumps, gets up to about waist-high on Saim Ayub, who tries to get inside the line and lift it over fine leg. He hasn't got his positioning on the crease right, though, and there's not enough power in this shot. Fine leg runs in and holds a straightforward chance. 24/3

    7.2 top edged to short fine and KJP is gone. IU are running this show, Imad Wasim getting under an easy chance. Shadab put a little overspin on this one I think, and KJP attempted a hard, flat sweep to a ball on about middle stump, but made an exceedingly poor connection. It floats up like a butterfly off his top edge, and Imad only has to move a couple of metres to his left to snaffle it. 39/4
    8.3 that looks plumb! Maxwell didn't even think about reviewing that. That was probably crashing into middle. This is full, pushed through on the stumps. Maxwell shapes for a huge reverse-hit and clean misses. Wasim goes up straight away in a confident appeal, and the umpire didn't take long to raise the finger either. Maxwell's modest run continues. 42/5
    11.1 Kingsmen keep bleeding wickets. Niazi has played some nice cameos this season, but can only mis-cue this one into the hands of long off, who takes a few strides in and holds a low (but comfortable) chance. This was fired in and turning wide of off from Shadab. Niazi tries to play a big sweep and drag it to the legside, but mis-hits it badly. 57/6
    11.2 gets one to dip and Shadab holds a return chance over his head! Hassan Khan is also out. This was flattish, but spun hard from Shadab, who pitched it on about off stump. Hassan pushes at it but is early on the shot, and lobs the ball up and slightly to the left of Shadab, who has no issues moving quickly to get his hands on that one. 57/7
    14.2 full, fast, at the stumps, and Mehmood makes room and chips it straight to mid off, where Shadab Khan is waiting to snatch it like a crocodile. This was partly the result of Mirza following the batter, who was clearly moving to leg looking to free his arms and hit through the offside or down the ground. Mehmood goes through the shot anyway even though the line is no longer to his liking (he was cramped up), and ends up. being Islamabad United's eighth victim 76/8
    15.3 quick, full, angled in at the stumps, and Hunain isn't keeping that one out, sadly for Kingsmen. This is what Imad can do, assisted by a surface without a ton of bounce on offer. Hunain went back to this arm ball, but didn't get his bat down in time, and it makes a mess of middle and off stump. Islamabad United are FLYING in this one. 79/9
    15.5 ah the old sucker-punch. Imad gets an lbw decision in his favour! Having bowled such a juicy delivery previously, he flings in a nasty quick one which stays low and would have crashed into leg stump. Ali can only get his front pad to this one. A bit of a deer-in-headlights situation. And the umpire has no qualms raising the finger. Ali reviews in hope but that is very definitely the end of Kingsmen's sorry innings. 80/10

    0.2 flicked straight into the hands of fine leg! Islamabad United aren't in the playoffs yet! Mohammad Ali is PUMPED. This was a length ball swinging into the pads, and Conway clips it, making excellent contact. But he's picked out the fielder perfectly. The ball was traveling flat and fast, but all Sadakat had to do was squat in his stance and get his body behind the ball. He does so safely and Kingsmen have a vital early breakthrough. 0/1

    6.3 gone! Tried to finish it with a four, but didn't hit it sweetly enough. This was a length ball angled into leg stump. Mohsin made space and tried to bash it over the offside infield, but couldn't clear mid on, who takes a comfortable catch moving to his right. Good, aggressive innings from Mohsin though. Has done IU's NRR some good. 79/2
