Tim Southee 4-21(4 ov)
17.6
Southee to Hafeez, 1 run, an acrobatic effort from Seifert - but he can only grab at the ball and it pops out.

Southee finishes with 4 for 21
17.5
Southee to Faheem Ashraf, out Caught by Williamson!! Ashraf never really got going and offers a fourth wicket for Southee - the slower wide ball from Southee, Ashraf didn't spot it as he went hard on the drive - hit high on the bat and lobs a simple catch to KW - at the edge of the circle at extra-cover. The hosts are pulling things back with some smart bowling. Faheem Ashraf c Williamson b Southee 4(5)

Southee to Shadab Khan, no run, wow! Look at that delivery. Unplayable! Lasers it in the corridor of uncertainty, makes Shadab poke at it and gets it to veer past the bat. I0$
5.4
Southee to Rizwan, out Caught by Seifert!! Edged and gone! Rizwan unable to convert his start once more. Southee is in the middle of a superb spell as he's accounted for all three Pakistan's wickets here. Lures the batsman into the drive by pitching it up, generates late movement outside off. Rizwan fell into the trap, pushing it away from his body and feathers an outside edge behind. Visitors crumbling... Rizwan c Seifert b Southee 22(20) [4s-4]

3.6

1.6
Southee to Shafique, out Caught&Bowled!! In the air and that's a sitter to Southee off his own bowling. Two-ball duck for Shafique again and two wickets in the over for Southee as he comes back really nicely. Full and this straightened a tad after pitching on middle. Shafique was shaping to mow it across the line, gets worked up by some iffy bounce as well. A leading edge goes up as the balance goes awry. Southee walks forward, calls for it and completes the catch. Pakistan in a spot of bother here. Shafique c and b Southee 0(2)

Southee to Shafique, no run, shorter just outside off, Shafique meets it with a soft-handed dab
1.4
Southee to Haider Ali, out Caught by Williamson!! And he perishes.. gets carried away and holes out to mid-off. Fuller length delivery just outside off, Ali wanted to play it straight, but ends up skewing it slightly off the outer half and slices a dolly to Williamson, who grabs it without any trouble.

1.3
Southee to Haider Ali, no run, good response from Southee. Sends in a bouncer that loops over Ali's attempted pull
1.2
Southee to Haider Ali, SIX, great intent this. What a fearless shot. Strides forward, does Ali. Keeps his shape and golf-swung it many a mile over long-on. Southee went for another good length delivery and paid the price. Brilliant from Ali!
1.1
Southee to Haider Ali, 2 runs, kicks off with a length delivery on the pads, Ali with a stunning whip off his pads over square leg. Conway in the deep flies across very quickly and prevents it from reaching the fence. Two nabbed
