Romario Shepherd to Darron Nedd, out Caught by Mohammad Nabi!! Off the bottom of the bat and caught at mid-off. It's full and no room on the legs, Darron Nedd gets forward and clears his front leg, but doesn't get the elevation. Simple catch for Nabi to his right. It tailed back in and cramped Nedd.

Dwaine Pretorius to Charith Asalanka, out Caught by Mohammad Nabi!! Nabi with a fine running and forward-diving catch from long-on. He judged that so well. A slower-ball off-cutter on a good length on off, Charith Asalanka goes on the back foot to pull and doesn't time it. Nabi covers good ground and then tumbles to take it.
