Nabi to Jamie Smith, out Caught by Azmatullah!! Just like in the last game against the Proteas, Nabi strikes off his first ball! He is cock-a-hoop! Jamie Smith dances down the track without having a look at what Nabi does with the ball. He is not quite to the pitch of the tossed up delivery but still goes through with his expansive shot trying to hit it downtown. The ball drifts away and takes the outside half of the bat. Omarzai at backward point moves to his right and pouches it safely. Jamie Smith c Azmatullah b Nabi 9(13) [4s-2]
