Colin Munro 44(29)
8.6
Irfan to Munro, out Caught by Kamran Akmal!! Exceptional review and Peshawar have Akmal to thank! He was the only one who thought there was some bat/glove involved there. None of his mates were convinced, they probably thought Akmal was doing it out of the guilt of the dropped catch earlier. But no, UltraEdge detects a spike as the ball passed the bat, and Munro is a goner. What a breakthrough!! Was a shortish length ball from Irfan, cramped the left-hander on the back foot flick, and it went off the hips down leg to Akmal. Munro falls after a threatening start. Munro c Kamran Akmal b Irfan 44(29) [4s-7 6s-1]
8.5
Irfan to Munro, FOUR, hit with disdain! Charges down does Munro, unaffected by Irfan's tall frame and bludgeons this straight down the ground. Hit back over the bowler's head and away to the fence
8.4
Irfan to Munro, no run, short of a length outside off, Munro tries to slash but misses
8.3
Irfan to Munro, no run, Kamran Akmal drops a big catch! What's with Peshawar's seniors? Malik last over and now Akmal with drops. This is a huge miss, as Munro is clearly Islamabad's biggest weapon at the moment. He went wafting at a good length ball that just shaped away a tad, only to get a nick that went to Akmal's left. The keeper put a dive across but shelled it. Shocked faces in the Peshawar dugout, they cannot believe it
7.1
Amad Butt to Munro, leg byes, 1 run, makes room early but Butt follows him with a slower ball, Munro misses the flick and deflects this off the pads towards point
6.5
Irfan to Munro, 1 run, short of a length on the hips, tucked away down to fine leg
6.2
Irfan to Munro, 1 run, back of a length around middle and leg, Munro hangs back and dabs this past the bowler, they get a single in the end, after Munro had slipped
6.1
Irfan to Munro, no run, mix up but Brandon King gets back in time eventually. Full and closer to off, Munro played it with soft hands towards cover and wasn't sure whether to take a single or not. Had called King across early and had to send him back, just in time
5.5
U Asif to Munro, 1 run, angling in on off stump, nudged gently towards mid-on
5.4
U Asif to Munro, FOUR, deft touch now! Munro isn't always about just sheer power, he can do this to the bowlers as well. Shortish and outside off, extra bounce, and it's steered acutely, beating short third man to his left. Munro is on the rampage
5.3
U Asif to Munro, FOUR, there was a chat between Wahab and Asif before this delivery, but nothing has changed for Munro! This is short, not high enough to trouble him and he muscles the pull over mid-wicket. One bounce and to the ropes
5.2
U Asif to Munro, SIX, it's gone highhhhhh.....and it's gone longgggggg! A bit of predetermined movement by Munro and it puts off Asif who delivers one in the slot, much to the Kiwi's joy. Drop-kicked way over wide long-on. Munro wresting back some momentum for Islamabad here
5.1
U Asif to Munro, FOUR, belted away! Away-angler on a good length, too wide though and Munro's hands do the rest. Quick hand-eye coordination on view as he whacks this on the up, wide of mid-off
4.5
Riaz to Munro, 1 run, slower ball this time, leg stump line and Munro gets another inside edge onto the pad, towards square leg
4.4
Riaz to Munro, no run, shortish and wider outside off, Munro looks to cut it away but is beaten by the bounce
4.1
Riaz to Munro, 1 run, late inswing and Munro is late once more on the flick, inside-halving this onto the pads and the deflection goes towards mid-wicket
3.5
Mohammad Imran to Munro, 1 run, skiddy back of a length ball on the hips, tucked away through square leg
3.3
Mohammad Imran to Munro, 1 run, Imran is getting to swing this both ways, curves this into Munro from around off, he tries to whip it away but gets a faint inside edge onto the pads, and this trickles towards the gully region
2.6
Irfan to Munro, no run, on a length outside off, Munro drives on the up but doesn't time this that well, picks out extra cover
2.5
Irfan to Munro, leg byes, FOUR, too straight this time in line and Munro's attempted flick deflects off the pads, beating Kamran Akmal's dive to his right, and away to the fence
2.4
Irfan to Munro, no run, shortish and outside off, extra bounce, defended off the splice towards the off-side
2.3
Irfan to Munro, FOUR, sublimely struck! Once again Irfan errs in line, gifts width and that shorter length further helps Munro. He stands tall and crunches this on the up, through the stacked off-side ring at point
2.2
Irfan to Munro, no run, shortish and closer to off stump, extra bounce and Munro dabs it onto the track
2.1
Irfan to Munro, FOUR, short and very wide, right where Munro loves it and he reaches out to slap-cut this through the gap at cover-point
1.2
Mohammad Imran to Munro, 1 run, back of a length outside off, Munro bottom-edges the cut to cover
0.6
Shoaib Malik to Munro, 2 runs, more flight, Munro looks to sweep again, drags this off the inside half, down the leg-side
0.5
Shoaib Malik to Munro, FOUR, smashed! Probably what he was looking to do last delivery, executes well this time. Fuller and in the slot, slog swept merrily over wide mid-on
0.4
Shoaib Malik to Munro, out Khawaja Run Out!! Unlucky dismissal but Ravi Ashwin will like this! Khawaja was backing up too far way too early and Munro's drive whistles back down the track, taking a tiny deflection off Malik's boot en route to the stumps at the bowler's end. Khawaja is miles out. The third ump wasted a lot of time in checking for the deflection, even thinking of UltraEdge to solve the issue. Only to then go with the soft signal which was OUT. Talk about wasting time. Khawaja run out (Shoaib Malik) 1(2)
0.3
Shoaib Malik to Munro, no run, tossed up around middle and off, Munro presses forward and smothers it
