Abrar Ahmed to Breetzke, out Caught by Nawaz at deep extra cover!! Abrar Ahmed picks up a wicket straightaway in his new spell! Breetzke struck that one nicely but couldn't find the gap. A tossed up full delivery on off, Breetzke stays leg-side of it and hits it towards wide long-off. The intention was to go over extra cover perhaps but he couldn't find the necessary space to do so. Mohammad Nawaz in the deep runs to his left and slides to take a good low catch. Breetzke c Nawaz b Abrar Ahmed 42(54) [4s-2 6s-2]
