8.6
Mendis to Sarfraz Ahmed, no run, pushed through outside off, Sarfraz is unable to reach it with a cut
8.5
Mendis to Sarfraz Ahmed, FOUR, puts away the quicker, length ball. Vicious sweep shot from the Quetta captain
8.4
Mendis to Mohammad Nawaz, 3 byes, and now he should have been out for a rush of blood. Rizwan misses a stumping. Goes out the front of the hand, grips and turns into the left-hander who slogs when there is no room. Goes through bat and pad and the wicketkeeper fluffs it
8.3
Mendis to Mohammad Nawaz, FOUR, that's the wrong 'un and Nawaz has picked it. Makes room outside off and clatters the ball over cover. That boundary was made from how early he read the change up
8.2
Mendis to Mohammad Nawaz, no run, comes down the track and belts a flighted ball back at Mendis
8.1
Mendis to Sarfraz Ahmed, 1 run, starts with a legspinner, which Sarfraz did not pick. Set up for the pull shot over cow corner, ends up patting the ball through mid-on instead
