59.6
Holder to Misbah, no run, good length ball on off, Misbah stands back in his crease and knocks it to cover
59.5
Holder to Misbah, no run, after couple of short deliveries, Holder throws the bait outside off, Misbah is too experienced to fall for that, watches it go past him
59.4
Holder to Misbah, no run, wasted delivery, short and down leg, Misbah has no problems in dealing with it, left alone
59.3
Holder to Misbah, no run, bouncer on leg-stump, Misbah only needed a half duck to elude that. Sailed over his left shoulder
59.2
Holder to Misbah, no run, back of a length around off, Misbah slices the back foot punch to point
59.1
Holder to Sarfraz, 1 run, short and Holder does not have the pace to trouble Sarfraz, who gets on top of the bounce and pulls along the carpet to fine leg
57.6
Holder to Sarfraz, FOUR, short delivery with three men on the leg-side and still Sarfraz takes it on, pulls it in the air right between square leg and mid-wicket, had enough wood to collect a boundary
57.5
Holder to Sarfraz, no run, Sarfraz bunts it into the off-side
57.4
Holder to Misbah, leg byes, 1 run, poor, poor decision by Holder. But that is one of the perks of being the captain, you can challenge the umpire's call even if it is missing the stumps by a mile. It was an attempted yorker, ends up as a full toss, Misbah missed the flick and is rapped on the pads. It was clearly angling down leg
57.3
Holder to Sarfraz, 3 runs, offers width and Sarfraz is not going to hang back, drives it through the extra cover region and hares back before the ball is hunted down
57.2
Holder to Sarfraz, no run, the ball is not coming for Sarfraz to execute the on-the-up drive, drags it off the inner part of the bat to mid-on
57.1
Holder to Sarfraz, no run, good length ball outside off, Sarfraz toe-ends the drive to cover
55.6
Holder to Misbah, 1 run, short and around chest level, Misbah swivels and pulls it behind square, rolled his wrists to keep it along the ground
55.5
Holder to Misbah, no run, on a length around off, Misbah bunts it into the off-side
55.4
Holder to Misbah, no run, back of a length outside off, Misbah lifts his bat and lets it go
55.3
Holder to Misbah, no run, once again finds Samuels at short extra cover with a drive
55.2
Holder to Misbah, no run, fuller and just outside off, pushed to short extra cover
55.1
Holder to Sarfraz, 1 run, Sarfraz will be positive. Walks down and across to the length delivery, flicks it behind square and down to fine leg
53.6
Holder to Misbah, no run, outside off and an over-practiced well left move is what brings about tea
53.5
Holder to Misbah, FOUR, edgy affair! First four for Misbah. Has taken him 56 balls to get a boundary and that too in such a streaky manner. It was well outside off and Misbah tried chasing that good length delivery only to edge it past the lone slip fielder
53.4
Holder to Misbah, no run, good length delivery speared in and the batsman fronts up with a solid defence
53.3
Holder to Misbah, no run, closer to the body and Misbah climbs on that shortish delivery to bunt it down
53.2
Holder to Misbah, no run, change of mind immediately. Looks to waft that one and almost under edges it to the keeper. That was short and outside off, Misbah decided to play the dab I guess
53.1
Holder to Misbah, no run, starts with a good length delivery outside off. Misbah decides not to fish around with that
51.6
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, another dangling away delivery, Sami Aslam is happy to shoulder arms
51.5
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, short delivery and again the lack of pace on that delivery forces Sami Aslam to wear a blow on his torso. He was early into the shot seeing the length but did not manage any wood, maybe some part of the glove
51.4
Holder to Sami Aslam, 2 runs, full delivery and Sami Aslam drives it away between mid-off and cover. It was not well timed and the result is only a duo of runs
51.3
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, angled across from a shortish length, Sami Aslam climbs on his toes and grapples it down into the turf
51.2
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, harmless angled away delivery and Sami Aslam is happy to hum the left alone music to himself
51.1
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, from over the wicket angles it across, Sami Aslam is solidly behind the line of the ball to defend
49.6
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, picks up the short ball and looks to dismantle it away on the on-side. The timing is not backed by the placement as he finds the man at square leg with perfection
49.5
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, fuller length delivery and Sami Aslam is happy to blunt it away into the off-side
49.4
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, banged in and Sami Aslam goes for the pull but is undone by the lack of pace. Too early into the stroke and misses it. There was some noise though as it passed the bat but I guess it was the ball kissing the sleeves
49.3
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, pushed away into the off-side to a much fuller length delivery compared to the last one
49.2
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, back and across to defend it away on the off-side to a back of a length delivery moving away a tad bit
49.1
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, angled across the southpaw, Sami Aslam is happy to cocoon himself into a forward push
47.6
Holder to Misbah, no run, was an afterthought to get the bat down. It nipped it from outside off and Misbah thought of letting it go. Then, he had to change his mind as he was unsure of his off-pole, to get the bat down on it a hurried manner
47.5
Holder to Misbah, no run, flirts with that zone of dilemma by putting it there and thereabouts, Misbah does not respond. Lets it go
47.4
Holder to Misbah, no run, pulls his length back a bit. Misbah comforts into a forward push to blunt it out
47.3
Holder to Misbah, no run, too full and Misbah closes the face of his willow to find the man at mid-wicket
47.2
Holder to Misbah, no run, comes down on that good length delivery nipping in and in the end turns it away towards mid-wicket
47.1
Holder to Misbah, no run, starts with a back of a length delivery and Misbah is happy to stand up tall and drop it down into the turf
16.6
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, just measuring 127kph but this short ball climbs. The angle across from over the wicket helps Sami Aslam sway away
16.5
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, fullish length, Aslam doesn't move his feet. Bends low, protracts his hands and then shoves it to cover

16.2

16.1
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, back of a length delivery dealt with a back foot defence. Down the pitch
14.6
Holder to Younis Khan, FOUR, that's a Flamingo glance. A full delivery veering leg-side and Younis Khan sports a one-legged stance to help that away. Delicate. Nobody minds that
14.5
Holder to Younis Khan, no run, sanely ducks under a short ball. Holder would have wanted to go wider of the crease and angle that in. Not to be. Easier duck than most we have seen all day
14.4
Holder to Sami Aslam, 1 run, goes wide of the crease this time and attacks the pad. Only that Sami Aslam is urgent in his flick to mid-wicket

14.2
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, chops a good length delivery towards the slip cordon
14.1
Holder to Younis Khan, 3 runs, half-stopped by Samuels at mid-off or else this was a boundary. Overpitched from Holder, Younis drives it with force but could only get three off that. Good stop, but good running too; has to be said
12.6
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, that's how to do it. Is really low into his duck here and this short ball sails over. This makes for sense, this response. Because the bounce - as good as it has been - hasn't been consistent. Some balls bounced, some ball bounced some more
12.5
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, blocks a fullish delivery off the front foot
12.4

Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, back of a length delivery again outside off, Aslam rocks back with an open bat face and blocks
12.2
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, a touch fuller and Aslam is forced to use his front foot. Hunches and blocks it off the inside half
12.1
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, back of a length delivery outside off from round the wicket, good bounce again - as has been the case all day - but the line's a touch wide. Makes for an easy leave
10.6
Holder to Younis Khan, no run, full delivery and swings away, Younis Khan is happy to have a keen look before letting it go to Dowrich

8.5
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, on the pads and tucked away to the man at square leg. Holder lost his nagging control on that delivery
8.4
Holder to Sami Aslam, FOUR, this time crisps it through the off-side as the ball was slightly fuller and closer to his body. Got into a good position and just leant into it, all timing and placement
8.3
Holder to Sami Aslam, no run, and again! on a good length and Sami Aslam is more than happy to be a silent spectator to that. Rather than being a naughty participant to that bait of a delivery
8.2
