Fareed Ahmad to Asif Khan, out Caught by Gurbaz!! Heartbreak for UAE. Asif Khan swipes the bat in the air in frustration. He is down on his haunches and shakes his head in disappointment. In the slot and full on off, was the perfect delivery to hit out of the ground, Asif Khan gets forward to loft and doesn't get the timing and it's gone so high up in the air, Ibrahim from long-on wants to go for the catch but at the last moment leaves it to Gurbaz at long-off who takes it well. One eye of his must have been on Ibrahim but he kept his nerve and hangs on. Even if he had dropped it wouldn't have mattered. Gurbaz is pumped as he looks back at the dugout and celebrates. Asif Khan c Gurbaz b Fareed Ahmad 40(28) [4s-4 6s-2]

Sharafuddin Ashraf to Asif Khan, no run, just in. Some part of the boot was inside.

The third ump has a look and decides there was something behind the line
