4
Asalanka to Hussain Talat, FOUR, second four in the over. Looks like they have decided to take on Asalanka. Talat shimmies down, gives himself room and lofts it inside out over extra cover. Second time he's played that shot with great effect..

Asalanka to Salman Agha, 1 run, not quite short and hence Agha mistimes the pull, lands in front of deep mid-wicket
30.2
Asalanka to Salman Agha, 2 runs, the length is shortened, Agha tucks it square on the leg-side and immediately calls for a couple, easily nabbed
30.1

Asalanka to Salman Agha, no run, sliding across and keeps low, Agha stays leg-side and stabs it to cover
28.3
Asalanka to Salman Agha, no run, comes down the track and pushes it back to Asalanka. He takes a second before throwing the ball, Agha didn't expect it but just mananges to plonk his bat in before the ball hits the stumps. That would have been disastrous for Pakistan
