Michael Bracewell to Salman Agha, out Caught by Jacob Duffy!! Huge wicket as the in-form Agha departs. The pressure was building to break free, he goes for a reverse-sweep but it doesn't come off. Tossed up outside off, he doesn't get hold of it, miscues it in the air and Duffy takes a really good catch at short third. He runs to his right before grabbing it with both hands at full stretch. Salman Agha c Jacob Duffy b Michael Bracewell 45(65) [4s-1 6s-1]
