2.2 OUT! CAUGHT! Muhammad Jawadullah gets his team off to a wonderful start once again! He bowls an off-cutter from over the wicket creating the angle from a shortish length. Chad Bowes looks to play the pull but misses on the timing due to the lack of pace. He gets the top edge that goes into the air towards short third man and it is a comfortable catch for Zahoor Khan who makes no mistake. United Arab Emirates have drawn first blood and will be hoping for a few more in the Powerplay. 16/1

5 OUT! CAUGHT! What a sensational catch by Basil Hameed at deep square leg running to his right and diving full length to hold on to it. Short ball doing the trick for Junaid Siddique this time, well directed at the body of the batter. Tim Seifert looks to pull it but misses out on the timing, finding the fielder. The second wicket gone for New Zealand. 35/2

15 OUT! CAUGHT at covers! The slower ball pitched up just outside off stump. Will Young looks to go over the covers fielder but misses out on the timing. Gets the bottom part of the bat and it's an easy catch to Muhammad Waseem at covers. A wonderful innings comes to an end. 119/3

7.1 OUT! STUMPED! Mitchell Santner gets the wicket and he has read the batter wonderfully well here! This is bowled short and outside the off stump as he sees the batter charge down the wicket. Aryansh Sharma finds himself in no man's land as he is unable to get to the pitch of the ball and throws his bat at it. He does not connect and Tim Seifert collects the ball behind the stumps before whipping the bails off. Aryansh Sharma does not even make an attempt to get back and has to make the long walk back to the shed. United Arab Emirates have now lost their top three batters and the Kiwis are right on top in this tie. 44/3

Soft dismissal led to the United Arab Emirates losing their second wicket. 29/2

8.3 OUT! CAUGHT! Adithya Ashok gets his maiden international wicket and he looks absolutely thrilled! He delivers this a tad bit short and in line with the stumps. Asif Khan looks to heave this into the leg side but does not time this one well. The ball goes straight down the throat of long on and Rachin Ravindra makes no mistake grabbing hold of this one. United Arab Emirates are four wickets down now and their run chase seems to be falling apart here. New Zealand have come back really strong in this game. 53/4
