FIVE WIDES! Good pace and good bounce and would have been a top nut, but for a right hander. On a length, down the leg side, Aamir looks to tuck it away but the ball pitches, seams further down and bounces as well. Beats the bat and the diving keeper to his right as well, racing to the fine leg fence. 217 more needed from 117 balls.

 Direct hit could have had Jatinder. On middle and off, angling away, AK pushes it towards point and sets off for a quick single. His skipper is a bit late in responding as the fielder from point comes charging in. Swoops on the ball but his direct hit goes very wide of the stumps at the striker's end. Could have been four overthrows but the fielder from square leg backs up well.

On middle and leg, worked through square leg for a single to get off the mark.

OUT! BOWLED! That's a beauty of a nut and Jatinder Singh's game is done. On a length, around middle and off. Jatinder looks to defend but the ball then pitches and nibbles away off the seam. Goes past the outside edge and hits the off stump. Nothing much that any batter could have done on that occasion. Just too good a ball, don a hat to the bowler and walk off. The skipper departs for 1 (2) and Oman are 12/1, needing another 214 runs from 114 balls!
