Cameron Green to Faheem Ashraf. Off cutter length ball, to leg on the front foot Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to mid off for 1 run, fielded by Marsh. That concludes the first innings. After losing two early wickets during the Powerplay, Saim Ayub played a crucial role in stabilizing the innings, top-scoring with a well-played 56 runs. He received valuable support from the middle order, with Babar Azam and Shadab Khan both contributing to maintain the innings' momentum. The Australian bowlers found it challenging to exert sustained pressure throughout the middle overs, but the hosts managed to set a strong total by the end. Ben Dwarshuis stood out among the bowlers, taking two wickets. Stay tuned for the run chase coming up shortly.
