16.2 -
Amir to Misbah, FOUR, streaky! But Misbah and Islamabad won't mind it. He was winding up for the mow to the leg-side, goes deep in the crease, Amir fires a yorker, squirted off the inside edge through the batsman's legs, raced away to the fine leg fence
15.1 -
Bopara to Asif Ali, FOUR, Usama almost pulled off a stunner. Length delivery, Ali fetches the hoick from outside off, lofts it wide of long-on, Mir runs to his right, dives full length and is inches away from pouching it
13.1 -
Usama Mir to Misbah, FOUR, that's very well played. Tossed up delivery on off and middle, Misbah moves across, stoops down on his knee and sweeps it behind square leg, rolls his wrist to get the placement right
10.5 -
Shakib to Misbah, FOUR, not all that short, but Misbah made good use of the crease, went deep and cut it behind point, splitting backward point and short third man to perfection
7.5 -
Usama Mir to Misbah, FOUR, there's a Misbah special. Was ages early into the reverse sweep, Usama had the time to darted it in, but Misbah is too good with the shot, places it wide of the slip fielder and collects four more
7.1 -
Usama Mir to Khalid Latif, FOUR, mishit and Usama is not a happy bowler. Floated up invitingly just outside off, Latif takes the bait, slices the inside out loft over extra cover, the ball beat both the converging fielders from deep extra cover and long-off
3.5 -
Sohail Khan to Misbah, FOUR, sloppy. Back of a length around off, Misbah steers it to third man, was rolling down towards Amir, who lets it escape through his hands, reaches the fence and Misbah is off and running
1.4 -
Sohail Khan to Haddin, FOUR, pitched up right in Haddin's arc, he gets his front leg out of way to get a free swing of the arms, drills it between extra cover and mid-off, raced away to the fence
1.0 -
Amir to A Russell, FOUR, no half measures with Russell. Full and in the slot, Russell gives it his all, goes hard and the outside edge flies over short third man, who was brought in just before this ball
0.4 -
Amir to A Russell, FOUR, Amir followed the batsman who was backing away to the leg-side, the length was full and that allowed Russell to get under it, whipped it over square leg and it almost went the distance
18.5 -
Mir Hamza to Asif Ali, SIX, Islamabad United win by 5 wickets. The players in the dugout are on their feet. Wasim Akram is clapping. What a way to finish the game! The players shake hands. The ball was short and at chest height, Ali swivels on the back foot and hammers the pull over deep square leg
18.3 -
Mir Hamza to Asif Ali, SIX, Ali is in sixer hitting mode. Picks the slower delivery, eyes his spot, clears his front leg and heaves it across the line, sends it soaring over deep mid-wicket for a maximum
17.4 -
Bopara to Asif Ali, SIX, that blow has tilted the game again. Pitched up and in the slot, Ali gets underneath it and smashes it flat over long-off, made good connection as it cleared the fielder with ease
8.3 -
Shakib to Khalid Latif, SIX, Latif likes clearing the fence a lot. His third six. Seemed like a mishit once again, but had enough wood on the heave to clear the long-on fence. Shakib can't believe it went the distance
6.4 -
Mir Hamza to Khalid Latif, SIX, poor delivery. Short and down leg, even fine leg was square. Latif just needed to get some wood on that, helps it along the way with a pull, sailed over the rope by an inch or so
5.4 -
Sohail Khan to Khalid Latif, SIX, where did that come from? Latif was being bogged down and had been pushed to the corner, he responds with this. Length delivery right in the slot, a clean swing of the bat and the ball sails over the long-on fence
2.3 -
Amir to A Russell, SIX, Amir had to pitch it up as he had used up the two short deliveries. Russell was waiting for this one, hammers it into the stands over long-off for the first six of the innings
17.2 -
Bopara to Misbah, out Caught by James Vince!! Misbah is gone. Karachi have got the wicket they wanted and it is that man, Ravi Bopara. What a tournament he is having! Runs, wickets and crucial wickets. The slower delivery - back of the hand, Misbah steps out, doesn't get to the pitch, is deceived for pace but still goes through with the loft, skies it towards long-on. Vince settles under and takes it tumbling back. Misbah c James Vince b Bopara 38(38) [4s-5]
13.4 -
Usama Mir to Khalid Latif, out Stumped!! Usama deserved that wicket. The partnership has been broken and an opening is created. Floated up on off, Latif was lured into the big shot, races down the wicket to go downtown, is beaten by the turn and bounce. Rahim gloves and takes the bails off. That was well done as the ball bounced a touch more. Latif was well out of the crease. Khalid Latif st Rahim b Usama Mir 33(35) [4s-1 6s-3]
3.2 -
Sohail Khan to Haddin, out Caught by Shakib!! Three down and Islamabad are in all sorts of trouble. Bring out Misbah already. It was banged in short and was asking to be punished, Haddin transfered his weight back and was a tad early into the pull, lobs it towards mid-wicket. Shakib leaps up gobbles it safely. Timed the jump to perfection. Haddin c Shakib b Sohail Khan 4(6) [4s-1]
3.0 -
Amir to A Russell, out Hit Wkt!! That's a bizarre dismissal. Nonetheless, Amir is pumped up and so are the rest of his mates. The ploy to send Russell up the order hasn't worked for Islamabad. This was a widish yorker outside off, Russell makes room and tries to reach out, in the end hits the stumps with his bat. He was too far back in the crease. A Russell hit wkt b Amir 14(11) [4s-2 6s-1]
1.2 -
Sohail Khan to Sharjeel Khan, out Caught by Shahzaib Hasan!! That's a soft dismissal. Karachi have an early wicket. Full on middle and leg, Sharjeel goes for the flick, was never looking to keep it down, the bat face turns on impact and Shahzaib hangs on to a dolly at mid-wicket. Sharjeel Khan c Shahzaib Hasan b Sohail Khan 1(3)
