In reply to Narper

King done out areddy

Misjudge the length and didn’t bother to stretch to meet it properly

What a soft dismissal and very very immature

0.5
Shaheen Afridi to Brandon King, out Caught by Babar Azam!! Loose shot and gone! First-over Shaheen is back! Full outside off, going with the angle from over the wicket and King chases it without any footwork. Plays a loose drive in the air and it's a simple catch at cover for Babar.

1.2
Naseem Shah to Keacy Carty, no run, cracking delivery! No great pace at 129kph, but it spits at Carty from back of a length as he looks to defend in the channel. Kicks up, nips away and whistles past the bat shoulder!

Shaheen Afridi to Keacy Carty, FOUR, squirted away in the gap! It's overpitched outside off, Carty goes for the drive, doesn't move his feet but the timing is good and so is the placement. Runs away through the gap at point

13.3
Salman Agha to Keacy Carty, FOUR, tossed up delivery, outside off, the batter looks to drive and gets an edge. The man from short third man dived but don't think was a clean one. The third umpire had a look but was a sloppy effort. Boundary signalled

14.2
Sufiyan Muqeem to Keacy Carty, out Caught by Salman Agha!! Soft dismissal. Full toss, down leg, the batter looks to paddle it but plays a half baked shot. The top-edge was gobbled up by the slip fielder running back. Windies have lost a wicket against the run of play. Keacy Carty has thrown it away here. He was too lazy in playing that paddle and has to pay the price. Sufiyan Muqeem gets his first.

18.6
Saim Ayub to Lewis, out Caught by Shaheen Afridi!! The wicket-taker in Ayub has delivered. Lot of air on the ball, Lewis looked to go big but only managed a lot of height on the shot. The ball went aerial and stayed up for a long time. Afridi got to the ball, circled under it and managed to grab it with his fingers pointing skywards. He didn't look steady while being under it. But did well to get his hands in the right position. Third wicket down. Ayub has struck in his third over.

Lewis c Shaheen Afridi b Saim Ayub 60(62) [4s-5 6s-3]

Brainless shot that

19.4
Salman Agha to Shai Hope, FOUR, fuller length delivery, well wide outside off, Shai Hope looks to drive and gets an edge. He threw his hands at it but no slips meant

Brain should be close to ball..his head hung back because he wanted to hit it to the moon.

20.2
Saim Ayub to Shai Hope, FOUR, just wide of the man at backward square! That was tossed up, down on to the pads, Shai Hope sat down and muscled the sweep past the fielder. Was aerial but in the gap

25.3
Salman Agha to Rutherford, out Caught by Saim Ayub!! Doesn't get the elevation he wants and hits it straight to extra cover! Round the wicket, full delivery around off, Rutherford looks to go inside out but fails to get under it. Length was probably fuller than ideal for that shot. It goes flat to Ayub who makes no mistake.

Bean Motieeee

48.2
Naseem Shah to Motie, no run, the yorker nailed in. The ball hit the base of the sticks, just kissed it I guess but the bails never came off. That's very lucky for Motie and the hosts. The ball tailed in and Motie could only hop up. There was a noise as the ball just kissed the base of the stumps but Motie survived

48.3
Naseem Shah to Motie, SIX, fuller length delivery, well wide outside off, Motie gets under the ball

48.5
Naseem Shah to Motie, out Bowled!! End of a fine cameo. The ball is reversing. Remember the new rules are in use. Post the 34 over mark, only one ball has been used from both the ends and the ball is reversing. That was full, tailed in, Motie sat down to paddle it but failed to wood it. The ball crashed into the base of the stick

OUT

Good review Shamar

11.6
Shamar Joseph to Shafique, out Lbw!! A celebappeal for LBW, umpire Allahudien Paleker shakes his head and West Indies have reviewed once again, was there an inside edge on this? Looked pretty straight, was the nip-backer and seems to have beaten Shafique on the inside edge - UltraEdge confirms the same and it's three reds on ball-tracking, Shafique is OUT. Exceptional bowling and an even better review as Pakistan lose both openers. Shafique was once again caught in the crease and this time there was no inside edge to save him - Shamar was outstanding in the Tests against Australia and he's looked umpressive here as well. Impact in front of middle and it's crashing into leg - Shamar wanted the review and coaxed his captain to go for it

Shamar Joseph to Rizwan, no run, has there been an inside edge? Shai Hope looked very confident and doesn't waste a lot of time in reviewiing the on-field call - nipped back in sharply and had Rizwan hopping on the back-foot poke, there was a sound as the ball went past Rizwan's inside edge, but it's flicked the top of the pad. No inside edge and it's too high for LBW - West Indies have lost both reviews now. Shamar wasn't convinced, but his captain was and they've burnt their reviews

Motie to Babar Azam, out Stumped!! He has played a fine knock with the bat and now comes up with a crucial wicket. Goes wide of the crease and gives the ball a nice rip. It dips and drifts neatly to beat the outside edge of Babar Azam. He was down the track anticipating a big hit, but was done in by the drift and late spin in the fifth stump channel.

Roston Chase to Salman Agha, out Caught&Bowled!! That is a soft dismissal. Roston Chase is chuffed to bits and so are the rest of his mates. Bowls it on the shorter side and gets the ball to stop a touch, Agha looks to force it down the ground and ends up chipping it off the splice to the right of the bowler. Chase moves well and completes the catch with both hands.

37.2
Shamar Joseph to Rizwan, out Lbw!! This looks plumb - Rizwan has been given OUT LBW and he has reviewed it. Didin't look confident, but has taken a chance. Was another nip-backer and Rizwan was once again caught in the crease, past the inside edge and struck flush on the knee-roll, in front of middle. It's crashing into leg, three reds and Rizwan is OUT. A massive breakthrough under the circumstances and this puts the West Indies ahead of the contest. Shamar was brought back to break this stand and he delivers for his captain

A slower full delivery bowled full and wide fo off, Nawaz sits deep inside the crease and slices it straight to short third who fails to hang on a straightforward chance...

So, Motie just dropped the match.
