Muzarabani to Gurbaz, 1 run

oh good bowling and equally good batting! Muzarabani spotted Gurbaz making room again and followed him with a sharp short ball that was asking for Gurbaz's head. The batter hurriedly managed to get bat on ball on this pull shot as he wanted to avoid damage, managed to drag it behind square to long leg. Played that pretty well despite being off balance

shot! The shot of the day so far! Stood tall, this short of length delivery was rising and he hit that on the rise over cover off the back foot with full control. Brilliantly done. Could have easily gone leg-side but Ibrahim played a textbook back foot loft
