United Arab Emirates vs Pakistan, 2nd Match, United Arab Emirates T20I Tri-Series 2025 - Live Cricket Score, Commentary

Junaid Siddique to Salman Mirza, out Salman Mirza Run Out!! 2 runs completed. Another run-out to end things. Sufiyan Muqeem trying for an improbable third and it's an easy run-out. The slower-ball on a length outside off, Salman Mirza slashes it to sweeper cover and Muqeem is so quick, he is running for the third, Mirza is not so quick, the throw comes to Rahul Chopra who lobs it to Junaid Siddique. Mirza is miles short. Pakistan end on 207. Salman Mirza run out (DSouza/Rahul Chopra/Junaid Siddique) 3(2)

Junaid Siddique to Faheem Ashraf, out Faheem Ashraf Run Out!! 1 run completed. Salman Mirza did not want the 2nd but he has to rightly sacrifice himself. It's a yorker length delivery outside off, driven to long-off and there was no two there, Mirza says NO to the 2nd, the throw is on the bounce to Junaid Siddique who does the rest. Faheem was always going back and put his head down and just ran. They check if the batters crossed before the stumps were broken. Touch and go and there's no side-on angle. The third ump has to go by the only straight replay he has on view. And they give Faheem out. They did not cross when the stumps were broken. Only just and Mirza who had already walked off, is called back. Now Faheem has to trudge off. Poor stuff from Mirza who was slow and did not want the 2nd. Faheem Ashraf run out (Saghir Khan/Junaid Siddique) 16(10) [4s-1 6s-1]

Junaid Siddique to Hasan Ali, out Caught by Muhammad Zohaib!! Straight to deep mid-wicket. A back of the hand slower-ball into the pitch outside off, Hasan Ali pulls flat but doesn't have the elevation to clear the man. Hasan Ali c Muhammad Zohaib b Junaid Siddique 9(6) [6s-1]

Jawadullah to Hasan Ali, SIX, 200 is up. Full and just outside off, Hasan Ali can hit them, he gets forward and lofts high and straight down the ground

Saghir Khan to Faheem Ashraf, FOUR, no deep backward point and that's a poor delivery, slower-ball on a length outside off, Faheem Ashraf cuts up and over backward point

Saghir Khan to Faheem Ashraf, SIX, half-volley outside off, in the slot and Faheem Ashraf gets forward to loft clean and high straight down the ground

Saghir Khan to Nawaz, out Caught by DSouza!! Good catch but they are checking for a clean catch. And it is clean. Full outside off, Nawaz gets forward to loft and it's miles up in the air, DSouza is close to the cushions at deep mid-wicket and he takes it with two hands and ensures he stays inside. Brilliant cameo from Nawaz again. Nawaz c DSouza b Saghir Khan 25(15) [4s-2 6s-1]

Junaid Siddique to Nawaz, FOUR, Nawaz is timing them so well. A slower-ball on a length outside off, he goes on the back foot and cuts in the air wide of cover, long-off gives chase to his right but the ball wins

Junaid Siddique to Mohammad Haris, out Caught by Jawadullah!! Straight to third man. Short outside off, Mohammad Haris slashes and picks out third man. To make things worse, the bat's broken as well for Haris. He couldn't get on top of the bounce and found the fielder. Junaid Siddique is happy. Replays show Haris slammed the bat into the turf after getting out, and then the bat broke. Mohammad Haris c Jawadullah b Junaid Siddique 1(2)

Junaid Siddique to Nawaz, FOUR, length outside off from round the wicket, Nawaz gets forward and lofts superbly on the rise, gives sweeper cover no chance to his left, was the slower-ball too

Haider Ali to Hasan Nawaz, out Caught by Rahul Chopra!! Sharp take by Chopra and that's the end of Hasan Nawaz. It's dragged down short, Nawaz goes on the back foot to pull, is too early into the shot, thick inside-edge and that's not easy at all, but Chopra takes it so well. Good call by the ump to spot that too with no DRS here. The dangerous Nawaz has to walk back but not before playing an attacking knock. Hasan Nawaz c Rahul Chopra b Haider Ali 56(26) [4s-2 6s-6]

Saghir Khan to Salman Agha, out Caught by Rahul Chopra!! Cracker of a delivery again and Salman Agha edges it behind. Length and rising outside off, Salman Agha gets forward to defend as he shuffles across outside off, spars at it and the ball takes the outside-edge. Two brilliant deliveries in a row. The second gets the wicket. Impressive stuff from Saghir Khan. Salman Agha c Rahul Chopra b Saghir Khan 5(9)

Haider Ali to Fakhar Zaman, out Bowled!! Another one bowled. There was risk giving it to a slow left armer against the southpaws. That was a tossed up delivery and Fakhar Zaman looked to sweep but missed the line of the delivery and the dip on the delivery also beat him. The ball escaped between the bat and the pads to strike into timber. Second wicket down. Haider Ali has struck in his first over. Fakhar Zaman b Haider Ali 6(7) [4s-1]

Junaid Siddique to Saim Ayub, SIX, six more in the over. That was a short ball, not much bounce and has been pulled over deep mid. The ball went high and just over the fence. Ayub off to a flier. He is batting on 23 off 7 balls

Junaid Siddique to Fakhar Zaman, FOUR, and slogged! Four. On a length, at the sticks and Fakhar Zaman mowed it across the line to send it over mid-wicket for a four. He has broken the shackles a little. Was looking to play his shots against the spinner as well

Junaid Siddique to Sahibzada Farhan, out Bowled!! Cleaned up. Angled in from a length, Sahibzada Farhan was stuck to his crease and looked to push at it.
