Mohammad Ali to Seifert, out Caught by Shaheen Afridi!! Seifert falls for 45. Was a slower ball, the ball climbed on him a little. Lost his shape, the ball went off the higher part of the blade and there was no power infused into the shot. Shaheen used his height and took it over his head. Trekked back and took it easily. First one down but Seifert has done his job after playing the first over as a maiden. Maiden T20I wicket for Mohammad Ali. Seifert c Shaheen Afridi b Mohammad Ali 45(22) [4s-3 6s-5]

Mohammad Ali to Seifert, FOUR, fuller length delivery, Seifert stays deep in his crease and muscles that over cover. Held his shape and hit that hard to send it into the gap
4.3
Mohammad Ali to Seifert, no ball, he has lost it! Mohammad Ali is under immense pressure. Looks to bowl a leg-cutter and bowls it outside the 22 yards for it to be called as a no-ball. Free-hit coming up
4.3
Mohammad Ali to Seifert, wide, miles outside off and slower as well. The batter looked to run down at that and misses. Did it land outside the 22 yards? Just inside..

Mohammad Ali to Seifert, FOUR, slower, outside off, Seifert backs away to thwack it and edges the ball wide of the man at short third man for a four. The fielder at short third - Rauf, failed to dive and stop it. Was a slower ball well wide outside off

Mohammad Ali to Seifert, SIX, fetch that! Short ball, angled in, Seifert was ready for the short ball and pulled it over deep mid. The ball is out of the ground. Is this range hitting practice going on? They are hitting home runs for fun now.

Mohammad Ali to Finn Allen, SIX, top-edge and six more. Was a back of a length delivery, angled in, Finn Allen didn't time it. Was a mishit. The ball despite that flew over the man at deep backward square. He scored a ton last year against the very same opponent and he is off to a flier here

1.3
6
Mohammad Ali to Finn Allen, SIX, back of a length delivery, jumps down, gets behind the line of the delivery and thumps it over wide cover. Excellent use of the feet. Allowed himself room and slammed it well over the ropes
1.2
Mohammad Ali to Finn Allen, no run, and a brute of a ball! Back of a length, jumped from a length, Finn Allen looks to defend and gets beaten on the edge
1.1
6
Mohammad Ali to Finn Allen, SIX, has that gone all the way? That was wide, outside off, the batter threw his hands at it and slashed at it. The third umpire had a look at it and signalled it as a sixer. Was a short ball outside off and Finn Allen went after that
