Usman Khan is the new batter. Netravalkar strikes almost immediately -- Nawaz edges behind to Shayan Jahangir and walks back for 5 off 10. Finally, a breakthrough for the USA seamer.
Shaheen Afridi comes out next. He gets off the mark with a deflection into the midwicket region for a leg bye. A pinpoint yorker follows, which Afridi whips down to long-on for a single. RUN OUT! Confusion in the middle costs Pakistan dearly. A mix-up between the batters leaves Usman Khan stranded, and the throw hits home. Another wicket goes down.
Abrar Ahmed is the new man in. Afridi tries to shift momentum, launching a massive six down the ground. He then pushes hard for extra runs -- picking up two before calling for a risky third. Abrar responds, but the throw beats him comfortably. Run out! A chaotic finish to the innings -- 11 runs and three wickets from the final over.
After 20 overs, Pakistan finish on 190/9.
