Transcript

00:00The sound 35 for 3 and really in a lot of trouble

00:05and it's going to be McGrath to Saleem Malik, the incoming batsman.

00:13Saleem Malik off the mark straight away, short-paced delivery.

00:17He pulls it without any problem at all and it's going to go off the floor.

00:23So McGrath is the main, we can take a testing Saleem Malik with a bouncer.

00:30And Saleem Malik dispatched that and goes through contempt.

00:34Short ball, but it's really pleasant to see Saleem Malik.

00:39The first ball he gets, he saw it well and executed a beautiful full shot.

00:46A pretty warm welcome for Saleem Malik from the Ophelians.

01:04He cuts down the stud man, no stud man, go around.

01:07The honor is, I think, a little even there.

01:13An element of risk in that shot because that ball was flexionally stuffed outside the off stump.

01:21And he came down on it, he late cut that.

01:24A shortish ball.

01:25Yes.

01:26And coming into that, you know, against the movement of the ball.

01:28Yes, I'm not entirely convinced about that shot.

01:30Right, right.

01:31But then I think this is the occasion that McGrath seems to be a little away from his target.

01:37Probably, he seems to be tiring a little in this weather.

01:41Yes, he's had a very long ball over an hour.

01:44Again, Bouncer, he didn't quite hit that right.

01:48He's just going to get two runs.

01:51And there's no possible that the Australians are really attacking Saleem Malik.

02:01Move the ball.

02:02He's out.

02:03Move the ball so well.

02:05He chased that, Saleem Malik.

02:07And that's before Pakistan was down.

02:10That is amazing, incredible.

02:12Yes.

02:13The ball moved efficiently, I saw.

02:15It moved more than one experience.
