Basil Hameed to Gareth Delany
Stumping chance missed! This should have been another wicket for Hameed. A touch shorter, around off, Gareth Delany skips down the track and swings his blade but misses. The ball bounced slightly more than anticipated as it goes over the keeper's gloves and hits him on his body. Delany makes his way back into the crease. 14 more needed in 18 balls.

Basil Hameed to Kevin O'Brien
OUT! CAUGHT! Is there a twist in this game? Hameed gets his third wicket as Kevin has to go back now. A good knock from him but he falls 4 short of his fifty. This is tossed up, fuller on middle, Kevin O'Brien slams this one towards the long on region and it looks like he has given it enough for it to cross the ropes. It goes high in the air, but straight to Rohan Mustafa who was stationed there. 9 more needed from 10 balls.

Basil Hameed to Curtis Campher
FOUR! Could that be the final nail in the coffin for UAE? Looks like Curtis Campher has taken his side home with this boundary. Too short this time, on middle, Curtis Campher shuffles across and pulls this past short fine leg for a boundary.
