Xavier Bartlett to Usman Khan, out Caught by Matthew Short!! Superb running diving catch from deep mid-wicket. Usman Khan is disappointed as he closes his eyes. A low full-toss on middle, Usman gets forward and heaves, it's a flat hit and Short judges it superbly, runs and dives forward to take it inches from the turf with two hands. Usman Khan c Matthew Short b Xavier Bartlett 53(36) [4s-4 6s-2]

Xavier Bartlett to Usman Khan, FOUR, slower-ball and full in the slot just outside off, Usman Khan gets forward to loft and it's one bounce over the ropes, wide of long-off's dive. 50 for Usman, it has been a good knock, was the slower-ball off-cutter, Abbott was the fielder

Sean Abbott to Usman Khan, 1 run, Shadab Khan is livid with Usman Khan. A slower-ball off-cutter and well wide outside off, Usman slashes and it's off the toe-end to deep backward point, Usman wants two and is halfway down the pitch when he is sent back, Josh Inglis collects and throws at the bowler's end, misses, a direct-hit would've got Usman, even a full-length dive wouldn't have saved him. Sean Abbott allows the ball to the stumps and it hits him on the right leg. After Usman gets away, Shadab comes to him to have a chat, clearly not happy at him

Sean Abbott to Salman Agha, out Caught by Josh Inglis!! Agha tries to be cheeky and loses his wicket. An impressive innings came to an end as he tries the risky scoop. Abbott bowls it well outside the off stump, he tried to manufacture a shot over the keeper's head. Only to result in a faint edge that was comfortably taken behind the stumps. A poor shot selection costs him a well-deserved hundred and gifts Australia a massive breakthrough. Salman Agha c Josh Inglis b Sean Abbott 76(40) [4s-8 6s-4]

The umpire had no hesitation in raising the finger, as the delivery was clearly heading for the middle stump. Babar Azam lbw b Adam Zampa 2(5)

Connolly to Saim Ayub, out Lbw!! LBW shout, not given and that has been reviewed by Australia! Saim Ayub’s stay at the crease comes to an end. He charged down the track to whip the ball across the line and missed it. Pitched on leg and missed the inside edge before rapping him on the pads adjacent to the stumps. Three reds on HawkEye and it's a successful review. Saim Ayub lbw b Connolly 23(11) [4s-4]
