9.1 overs (0 Run) OUT! CAUGHT! James Neesham didn't occupy the crease for long. Mohammad Hafeez strikes off his first delivery as he gets rid of the dangerous Neesham. This one is tossed up, around off stump. Neesham looks to flick it across and clear the short boundary at mid-wicket. The ball goes off the toe end of the bat and Fakhar Zaman runs to his left from the cow corner fence to take a nice running catch. James Neesham will be hugely disappointed with that shot.
