00:00Hello and welcome to Qadhafi Stadium, Lahore.
00:28It is the Pankal Fala presents Vigotel Mobile T20 Series 20-26, second T20i.
00:38Pakistan yet again, they won the toss and they elected to bat.
00:43Wanting runs on the board, a few changes for Pakistan, three of them,
00:48Fahim, Osman Tarek and Naseem Shah come in but all eyes on the top three.
00:53Farhan didn't get any runs, Saim looked in fabulous touch, so did Salman Ali Yaga.
00:59Now batting first, you want to set the tone and that top three has to do so.
01:03Bauer at number four is causing a few ripples.
01:06Australia in a must-win situation.
01:09Yeah, they want to bounce back and all the big guns back in the side.
01:12Captain back at the opening spot with head, Cameron Green in the three.
01:16Josh Inglis as well, who is resting on the first game back in.
01:19Matt Renshaw also, big news, replaces Matt Short in the World Cup squad as well.
01:24So he gets a go.
01:25Cooper Conley as well, Short, Bartlett, Abbott back in the side.
01:28Three changes and Zampa who picked up four.
01:31Kuniman in there as well with the spin.
01:33And like you said, Baz, there should be a lot of spin doing the talking.
01:37First ball and he says play.
01:49A little bit of swing, Sabzadabran quickly runs away.
01:54He gets off the mark.
01:59Down the track, pierces the offside.
02:02In the air, but lots of power.
02:07And he drills it down the ground.
02:12Two full.
02:13Now that has been absolutely smashed away.
02:20Packs away.
02:21Gets the length and just muscles it leg side.
02:25Four through mid-wicket.
02:31Goes reverse.
02:33And given.
02:35Doesn't work.
02:36Rashid Riyadh straight away raises a finger.
02:40Success for Australia.
02:42Not quite the length to play this shot.
02:44He doesn't really get the bat in line.
02:49There you see, just clipping with the gloves.
02:51Straight into Inglis' gloves.
02:53And that is the end of Sabzadabran.
02:56Not in five in the two innings so far.
03:00Pakistan, one down for 17.
03:01Salman Ali Aaga at number three.
03:06And straight away down the track.
03:08Lifts it over mid-off.
03:11Shows his intent.
03:12And Saim hits it over the top.
03:18And Saim hits it over the top.
03:18Plenty of space.
03:20One bounce.
03:20Couple of bounces into the fence.
03:22But he plays shots like this.
03:27And in the power play, you say there's always a gap when you go over the top.
03:33Backs away.
03:34That is a beautiful execution of the extra cover drive.
03:43That is some shot.
03:45Scrumptious six.
03:46And again, this time, over the leg side.
03:52Little flick of the wrist.
03:55And rolls into the fence.
03:57This is fabulous batting.
04:05Through the offside.
04:06Through extra cover.
04:08Another boundary.
04:10Huge over.
04:10Starts off with a full toss.
04:20And the smash down the ground.
04:23And Pakistan reached 50 in just 4.1 overs.
04:30Down the track.
04:32Drifts down leg.
04:33Goes to the fence.
04:34Down the track.
04:41He flicks it away.
04:42And flicks it so well.
04:44That that has reached the crowd.
04:47Absolutely magnificent from the skipper.
04:50There for a reason.
04:51And he's showing them how it's done.
04:56Oh, that is such a great shot.
04:58Six.
04:59So what's new?
05:00Six.
05:04Out of the crease.
05:08Difficult really to judge and give.
05:10Quick through the air.
05:11At a pace.
05:12That last delivery.
05:15They're going to have a think over it.
05:19Yeah, they're going for it.
05:22We're going to see you're not out.
05:25Pitching in line.
05:25Impact in line.
05:27Wicket sitting.
05:29You need to reverse your decision, Rashid.
05:31Stand by.
05:31Ayoub departs for 23.
05:36Pakistan now.
05:3772 for 2.
05:42Oh, I think it's done.
05:44Gone.
05:46Played back.
05:47Straight ball.
05:48I think it's curtains for Barbara Azum.
05:50Fifth time Adam Zampa has got him out.
05:53Yeah, tough challenge this for Barbara Azum.
05:56It gives the bogeyman.
05:58Adam Zampa's on.
05:59Fifth time he's got him and that looks absolutely plumb.
06:03Great move from Mitch Marsh.
06:05Getting Zampa into the action straight away.
06:08Pakistan now.
06:1076 for 3 as Barbara Azum departs for 2.
06:13That's a beautiful cut shot.
06:19He plays that win so well.
06:24Pakistan continue to flourish.
06:26They can get to 200.
06:28Swept.
06:30And that's gone for 6.
06:33What a shot that is.
06:34I mean, jaw-dropping stuff that.
06:36Slashed away.
06:41And into the gap.
06:43Brings up the 100 for Pakistan in fine fashion.
06:46And once again is flown off the bat of Salman Ali Agha.
06:53Into the leg side.
06:54How's that for placement?
06:55Absolutely spectacular.
06:58Back-to-back boundaries for the Pakistan skipper.
07:05Brilliant.
07:06Absolutely glorious.
07:07Belted away for 4.
07:08A little bit funky.
07:15A slight edge and through to the keeper.
07:18A quiet dismissal at the end.
07:20Salman Ali Agha is disappointed.
07:22But Sean Abbott strikes.
07:23And just one dot delivery, which was a wide, impelled him to take his chances.
07:38Slice of the face at the back to the wicket keeper.
07:41But nevertheless, a brilliant effort from Pakistani captain.
07:4476 from just 40 deliveries.
07:46Well, maybe that is the magical one touch.
07:56That is a touch Pakistan was looking for.
07:59Runs it right up.
08:00Remember that 6 definitely right out of the middle of Osman's bat.
08:08And he goes downtown and gets maximum.
08:13That is hit really hard.
08:15Brilliant connection.
08:21This is Shadab now.
08:23He launches this.
08:25Second six off the over.
08:27Well, that's even better from Shadab.
08:33This time he gets hold of it and gets hold of it extremely well.
08:39That's into the crowd.
08:40That's another wonderful strike from Shadab Khan.
08:43Great power.
08:45Shadab.
08:45Two, three, three, three.
08:50Shadab.
08:51Shadab belts it down the ground.
08:52And gets it straight and into the fence.
08:55goes wide and it's just carved away down to third
09:02they brilliantly played from usman khan you give good players width and you pay the price
09:07but let's win hit down the ground and it's so well that's gone to the fence and usman khan

09:58wrapping his mitts around it taking it comfortably and the dangerous usman khan departs

11:00patting first
11:01perron When early Sime
11:02battered beautifully for his 23 with the star of the show salman ali aga 76 of 40
11:04and then
11:05then Usman Khan, he got to 53 of 36, Shadab 28 of 20, and Pakistan almost getting to 298
11:14of 5, and the bowling, well it suffered, Bartlett 1 for 52, 1 for 40, and Conley with
11:22the wicket, Zampa though, 4 overs, 1 for 27, so it'll be interesting when Australia come
11:29out to chase, they need 199 of their 20 overs.
11:358 and dropped, it's gone through for 4, here he goes, lofted, into the fence for 4, spoils
11:57the fun for Nassim Shah, oh that's launched, absolutely launched for 6,
12:05he was waiting on it, and that's gone all the way, it's terrific 6, he knows his area
12:15of strength, oh close, that is close, and finger has gone up, it looked out, didn't read the wrong
12:25gun, he kept on bowling those leg spinners, back of the length, forced the batsman on the
12:32back foot, this time around, Googly was flighted, drew the batsman forward, wasn't able to read
12:40it, the umpire dead, the umpire dead, and first blood drawn, captain of Australia has been removed, scored 18, 22 for 1, oh gone, a little too early into that pull shot, Travis hit feels that the ball did not bounce, but I think he misread it completely,
13:04now went low, but he was looking to deliver that ball, that's why it kept low, and once again,
13:14didn't have any answer, now for the spinners, Travis head, he's been removed, wicket number 2 for Pakistan,
13:22what a start, now what a start, with the ball, 4 was the contribution, 22 for 2,
13:32ah, beautiful, really is a classy square drive, waited on the ball, and just allowed his wrists, and arms do the rest,
13:41given, Abraar was so sure, that he got his man, he was clamoring, and finally, the umpire responded to his call,
14:00Urjandusian out, pitching outside of, impact in line, wickets umpire's call, Essence stay with your Urjandusian,
14:09Ingles has gone, marginal, but the ump, got it right in the end,
14:19down the ground, that is a massive hit, he does have a lot of power, there's Green,
14:29this time backs away, he's not hit that too well, but it will almost go to the fence, on the full,
14:37there goes again, this time nails it, that is a 6-4-6,
14:48yeah, brilliant from Green, he's picked his match up, and he's executing,
14:53oh, little ramp shot, huge appeal has given, Essence and Raza, reckons that is in front,
15:03Renshaw, well he'll go upstairs, Urjandusian out, pitching outside of, impact in line,
