0.2 : 0.2: Shaheen Afridi to Jake Fraser-McGurk, FOUR! Off the mark in style! A little bit of swing but hits it with it. On middle. This is whipped through mid-wicket and this races away to the fence. |
0.3 : 0.3: Shaheen Afridi to Jake Fraser-McGurk, FOUR! This is even better! A little too full. On middle. Jake shows the full face of the bat and creams it past mid on. No chance of stopping that one. Lovely stroke. |
0.6 : 0.6: Shaheen Afridi to Matthew Short, Six! |
1.1 : 1.1: Naseem Shah to Jake Fraser-McGurk, OUT! Taken! Straight to the man! Azam holds on. Shah strikes on the very first ball he bowls. Length and on off. Jake Fraser-McGurk looks to hit it on the up and past cover but provides a simple catch to that fielder. Welcome wicket for Pakistan. |
1.2 : 1.2: Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! That's outstanding! Outrageous! Wow! He brings out the reverse sweep first up. It is on middle. This is hit behind square on the off side. Boundary. |
1.4 : 1.4: Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, Four! |
1.5 : 1.5: Naseem Shah to Glenn Maxwell, FOUR! Slapped away! A little too short again. Maxwell makes room. He slaps it over cover and this races away. Another massive over. |

5.5 : 5.5: Abbas Afridi to Tim David, SIX! Kaboom! That's massive! That's really big. This is angled into the pads. David pulls it well over the square leg fence. First one for him. Australia would love a couple more from him. |

0.1 : 0.1: Spencer Johnson to Sahibzada Farhan, FOUR! Stand and deliver! Perfect start for Pakistan! Length and outside off. This is smacked past mid off and this races away. |
0.2 : 0.2: Spencer Johnson to Sahibzada Farhan, FOUR! Two in two! Johnson goes short now! On middle. Farhan pulls it over mid-wicket and this races away to the fence. Despite the rain, the outfield is quite fast. |

1.1 : 1.1: Xavier Bartlett to Mohammad Rizwan, OUT! c Jake Fraser-McGurk b Xavier Bartlett. |
1.5 : 1.5: Xavier Bartlett to Usman Khan, FOUR! That's a really good shot. Not an easy shot to play! Length and on off. Khan gives himself room and just lofts it over mid off and it goes to the fence. They need a lot more of these. |
1.6 : 1.6: Xavier Bartlett to Usman Khan, OUT! c Matthew Short b Xavier Bartlett. |
2.1 : 2.1: Nathan Ellis to Babar Azam, OUT! CAUGHT! Ellis now picks up a wicket on his first ball and it is a big one as well. |
2.3 : 2.3: Nathan Ellis to Irfan Khan, OUT! c Jake Fraser-McGurk b Nathan Ellis. |
2.6 : 2.6: Nathan Ellis to Haseebullah Khan, FOUR! The boundary off the last ball spills a double-wicket maiden but Nathan Ellis won't mind that much. Full and wide outside off, Haseebullah Khan stays put and just slaps the ball away square through cover-point for a boundary. |
3.1 : 3.1: Xavier Bartlett to Salman Agha, FOUR! Oh, that is some shot from Salman Agha! This is dug in a bit short and around off, Salman gets across a touch and slices it high and over covers off the full face of the bat for a boundary. |
3.2 : 3.2: Xavier Bartlett to Salman Agha, OUT! TAKEN! Xavier Bartlett with his third wicket and Pakistan folding like a house of cards now. |

4.3 : 4.3: Spencer Johnson to Abbas Afridi, FOUR! Skillful from Afridi now! Back of a length and around leg, Afridi walks across to the off side and ramps it fine of short fine leg for a boundary. |
4.5 : 4.5: Spencer Johnson to Haseebullah Khan, SIX! Uh, oh! Tim David misjudges that one a bit and it ends up being another six. |
5.2 : 5.2: Nathan Ellis to Haseebullah Khan, OUT! CAUGHT! Smart bowling from Nathan Ellis and he picks up his third wicket as well. |
5.5 : 5.5: Nathan Ellis to Abbas Afridi, FOUR! Some clean ball striking from Abbas Afridi here. |
6.3 : 6.3: Adam Zampa to Shaheen Afridi, SIX! Valiant effort from Nathan Ellis but that was always going over the ropes. Tossed up right in the swinging arc, Shaheen Afridi sits down and slogs it away over deep mid-wicket for a biggie. |
6.5 : 6.5: Adam Zampa to Shaheen Afridi, OUT! TIMBER! Oh, it looked like Shaheen Afridi was stumped at first but he has been bowled. |
6.6 : 6.6: Adam Zampa to Naseem Shah, OUT! BOWLED'EM! Adam Zampa goes bang, bang and finishes off the game in style for Australia. Zampa spears another one in right at the stumps, Naseem Shah has to have a swing at it and does so but misses the ball completely and hears the death rattle behind him. Australia win the game by 29 runs! |
