Kagiso Rabada to Shaheen Afridi
OUT! CAUGHT AND BOWLED! Big wicket as Fakhar now has one less partner! Slower one, on a length and Afridi looks to go big, but only manages to get a top edge. Rabada settles under it and completes the formalities.

Lungi Ngidi to Fakhar Zaman
Poor from Shamsi! Slower ball outside off and Fakhar works it to short third man. It should have been one but Shamsi attempts a direct hit at the striker's end and misses. There is no back up and they take an overthrow.

NOT OUT! Brilliant by Rabada at deep sqaure leg. Fakhar gets a low full toss and he whips it towards deep mid-wicket. Rabada dives and saves a couple of runs. The ball is thrown to keeper and he takes off the bails but Fakhar is back in.

Andile Phehlukwayo to Haris Rauf
Swing and a miss! Just 7 from the over and Andile Phehlukwayo has done a great job! Length ball on middle, Rauf rightly goes for the slog but misses it completely. Fakhar has been brilliant but can he gets his side over the line?

Lungi Ngidi to Fakhar Zaman
OUT! RUN OUT! Brilliant throw by the man at long off and a wonderful, wonderful innings by Fakhar comes to an end. Full ball on off and he drills it to long off, he comes back for the second but Aiden Markram hits a bullet throw at the striker's end. Fakhar was nowhere in the picture. Brilliant by de Kock too, he pretends that the throw is being made to the bowler's end and Fakhar slows down in his second run. He falls 7 short of what would have been a wonderful 200 irrespective of the result.
