0.1 Comes over the wicket, oh my goodness, what a start! Alex Hales is stunned and so is Saim Ayub! Bowls a magnificent carom ball on a length that straighens a touch and disturbs the middle stump. Alex Hales goes without troubling the scorers! Genius move from Babar Azam to begin with spin! 0/1

2.6 Slices this in the air and it's one big shot too many, got carried away. Floated up on a length and it slides across off, he got the toe-end of the bat, early through the thwack and Babar Azam settles under somewhere in the covers and pouches the skier comfortably. So after a couple of loose deliveries, Saim manages to get another breakthrough, Munro will be gutted with himself, he got plenty in this over and could have just remained calm and rotated strike but he tried make use of the width and cut it away, lost his shape while playing that shot 28/2

10.2 Shuffles across his stumps to try some improvisation with a scoop, the ball held its line on fifth stump outside after hitting back of a length, the extra cheekiness has cost him his wicket as he tickles it to Mohammad Haris. Just when they were getting a semblance of control with this partnership, Salman Agha loses the plot. 93/3

16.5 Gottim! Saim Ayub takes a gem at deep midwicket! Lovely change-up back of length delivery on middle, he yanks his front leg out of the way and pummels it but hasn't timed it well enough and Saim Ayub running from the deep snaffled that while lunging forward, he is a great all-round cricketer, can bowl in the powerplay, open the batting and is someone you can trust with the skiers in the deep - got a bright future! 161/4

0.6 What a dramatic first over it's turning out to be! How often does Naseem produce riveting spells with the new ball? Now he thumped it into the surface and got it to rise steeply off the deck at middle and off, he gloved it to Salman Ali Agha at slip and Saim Ayub has to go. This is the quality of Naseem Shah! Both openers already back in the hut and now 197 looks a pretty good total on the board. 1/2

0.4 Back of a length on an unimpeachable lune at off, clipped to mid-on and hurtles down the pitch to squeeze in a run, Alex Hales rifles the throw and it hits the stumps, Babar Azam is short of his crease and that's a massive scalp in the first over! Disaster for Peshawar Zalmi! 1/1

3.1 Shimmies across off and tries to flick this past square leg but ends up giving a simple catch to short fine who didn't have to move much to gobble that up. Imad Wasim with a clean catch. It's a strange shot from Mohammad Haris but it's the powerplay and they want to make use of the fielding restrictions, Haris got in an awkward position and didn't have the pace to scoop that away, lost his control. Peshawar Zalmi in dire straits at 3/3 3/3

5.1 Flings the bat out and the outside edge is drawn! Short of a length, holding its line in the channel, throws his bat at it and nicked it through to the keeper, Azam dives to his right and the ball nestled in his gloves, superb catch! 18/4

15.6 Shadab breaks the gritty resistance! Floated wide of off, gets under it and smashes it in the air but finds Cox at wide long-off, that partnership blossomed for a long time but boundaries dried up in the last few overs and he was looking to finish the over with a big shot, didn't get all of it 125/6

5.4 Caught at short square leg! It's a procession. Back of a length and not much room to free arms, ball sticks in the surface as he attempted a swivel pull and handed a regulation catch to Faheem. Panic looming large in Zalmi's camp. Shah brothers on fire 18/5

17.5 Clean bowled, Jamal played all over it! Shadab Khan gets his 300th T20 wicket, that is a tremendous riposte after being bashed for a six. Aamer Jamal has produced an exhilarating show tonight and entertained the Rawalpindi crowd royally, such a treat to watch! 152/7

18.1 Wickets continue to tumble. Short of a length pace-off ball right at his body as Wood skips down the track and then gets confused, doesn't know what to do so he top-edges it to keeper, Raees is such a canny customer, it was a back-of-the-hand slower one that got the better of him 152/9

17.6 Zingers are lit! Shorter googly and that rips through the stumps, he backed away and swung for the stands but missed it completely, ending up rearranging his stumps 152/8
