Naseem Shah to Jayden Seales, out Caught by Mayers!! In the air and taken! Naseem celebrates with a salute followed by a smile. Skiddy ball on a back of a length, Jayden Seales stays back to heave across the line and skies it up in the air. A pretty straightforward catch for Mayers at mid-off. Jayden Seales c Mayers b Naseem Shah 1(5)
Waqar Salamkheil to Imad Wasim, out Caught by Holder!! Another one bites the dust. Fullish leggie, Imad Wasim miscues the loft due to the spin. Takes the outer part of the bat and hence the timing isn't spot-on. It's a sitter for Holder long-off. Wicket number four for Waqar Salamkheil. Imad Wasim c Holder b Waqar Salamkheil 11(13) [6s-1]
Holder to AM Ghazanfar, out Lbw!! Quick, full, on the stumps and that's out. Almost in the blockhole, Ghazanfar clears his front leg to swing across the line. The bat is pretty far away from the ball. Gets hit low on the back leg adjacent to the stumps and the umpire wastes little time to raise his finger. Well, well, ball-tracking shows it to be missing leg! The Falcons didn't even think of reviewing it. AM Ghazanfar lbw b Holder 1(5)
Waqar Salamkheil to Odean Smith, out Bowled!! Timber! Fletcher does a little jig behind the stumps. More revs on this occasion as Waqar Salamkheil bowls it fuller. Odean Smith gets down on one leg for a mighty slogsweep. The ball spins in a fraction, beats the inside edge and crashes into the off-stump. Odean Smith b Waqar Salamkheil 0(2)
Waqar Salamkheil to Shakib, out Caught by Holder!! Second wicket for Waqar Salamkheil. Full delivery, Shakib makes room to loft and chips this non-turner straight to long-off. Holder gets low to snaffle it with both hands. Shakib is livid with himself as he takes the long walk back. Shakib c Holder b Waqar Salamkheil 11(16)
Fazalhaq Farooqi to Karima Gore, out Caught by Fletcher!! This one has gone a mile up in the air, Fletcher - the man with the gloves - calls for it, runs forward towards the point region and pouches safely. Farooqi comes back to dismiss the half-centurion. Pace off delivery, full and on the stumps, Gore makes room to waft it over the infield on the off-side. Ends up skying it up in the air off the bottom part of the bat. Karima Gore c Fletcher b Fazalhaq Farooqi 61(34) [4s-8 6s-2]
Waqar Salamkheil to Fabian Allen, out Bowled!! Knocked him over. Waqar Salamkheil bowls the leggie on this occasion. Quicker one on a length, pitches just outside off and spins back in. Fabian Allen is stuck in his crease and is late to bring his bat down. Don't think he picked the leggie. Beaten on the inside edge and the ball crashes into the off-stump. Waqar Salamkheil strikes in his first over. Fabian Allen b Waqar Salamkheil 12(10) [6s-1]
Naseem Shah to Bevon Jacobs, out Caught by Athanaze!! Bevon Jacobs picks out the man in the deep perfectly. Shortish delivery from Naseem, Jacobs comes down the track and moves leg-side to slap it over the infield. Makes good contact but he's hit it flat and straight down deep backward point's throat. Naseem strikes in his first over. Bevon Jacobs c Athanaze b Naseem Shah 1(3)
Fazalhaq Farooqi to Cornwall, out Caught by Holder!! Soft dismissal! Pace off ball on a short of length, Cornwall comes down the track and moves leg-side to make room. The batter is a bit early into his aerial drive and chips it straight to Holder at mid-off. The Falcons have now lost both their openers. Cornwall c Holder b Fazalhaq Farooqi 3(6)
Mayers to Jewel Andrew, out Caught by Jyd Goolie!! Jewel Andrew looks to go big and perishes. Fuller than a length, Andrew advances down the pitch to swing it over midwicket. The timing goes awry as it's off the inside part of the bat, Goolie moves back from midwicket, stays side-on and gathers it calmly. Early wicket for the Patriots and Holder is elated. Jewel Andrew c Jyd Goolie b Mayers 0(3)
