8.4 to LJ Tucker, taken at short fine leg! Farooqi takes it with a reverse cup in front of his head. Again Tucker looked to paddle sweep, but this time didn’t have fortune going his way. The ball was on a length outside off, and hence there was some more bounce than what would have been ideal for this shot, with Tucker getting it off the top edge. 68/2
8.5 to HT Tector, ahh, bowled him! Great bowling, and Rashid is on a hat-trick. The wrong ‘un does Tector in, and Rashid is off in his typical arms-stretched celebration. He bowled it fullish around off, and got it to turn in to hit the side of Tector’s front pad. Tector was defending from off stump, and the ball went in the gap between bat and pad to hit the stumps. 68/3
15.1 to GH Dockrell, chopped on! Rashid has his third, and the Afghanistan fans sense a victory. He angled this wrong ‘un in, and pitched it on a length on middle. Dockrell had his front leg out of the way, and was pushing at it from middle and off. But he ended up dropping it close to his front leg, before the ball went on to hit middle and off. 95/6
15.3 to MR Adair, cleaned up! Adair is too far across his stumps, and is bowled by the googly. He ended another set of stumps outside off, and Rashid bowled on the shorter side of a length on off. Adair went swiping behind square, but was beaten by the turn into him, as the ball hit middle stump. 95/7
