10.3 to BB McCullum, now this is a big wicket - rapped low and clearly on off, McCullum trying to sweep and missing completely. 74/2

7.5 to L Vincent, terrific return catch - Vincent driving hard on the up and Fawad is quick to get his hands to the ball. 50/1
14.6 to CD McMillan, goes to clear long-off again with the huge lift off the bottom of the bat, but - like Styris earlier - did not get the distance and Shoaib stays firm, and strong, to take the catch yards in from the rope. 104/5
401533.75141000
13.1 to SB Styris, outside off, Styris lifts up off the bottom of his bat but can't clear the cover boundary - the ball goes up straight and back down into the hands of Sohail way inside the rope. 85/3
13.3 to PG Fulton, two in three balls now for Gul as Fulton, standing straight, doesn't get over the ball and pops a straightforward catch to cover. 87/4
15.6 to JDP Oram, round the wicket again, angling in, with some lift too, and Oram's would-be carve over mid-on takes a big snick through to Akmal. 106/6

14.3 to Shahid Afridi, gone this time, though - driven flat on the up straight to Fulton at mid-off. 111/4

13.3 to Younis Khan, backed away to try to cut a straight one and got a thin edge through which McCullum snapped tidily. 104/3

7.1 to Mohammad Hafeez, and they've got the breakthrough! Taufel raises where Harper declined. Hafeez was down in position to sweep, moving outside off stump, and struck in front of middle. Fair enough, and that's timely to say the least. 60/1

12.2 to Imran Nazir, had to go this time - tried to sweep a faster delivery, swooping very low in doing so, and was rapped straight in front of off. 96/2
