Another loud appeal from the bowler and the keeper, but for caught behind this time, but the umpire shakes his head again. However, the skipper, Shai Hope, doesn't take much time in taking a review here. Hard length and around off, nips back in sharply there. Mohammad Rizwan hops and looks to defend, but gets beaten on the inside edge as the ball has cut him in half. The ball goes over the off stump, and the keeper, Shai Hope, collects it to his left there. Third umpire is called in, and there is nothing on the UltraEdge when the ball has passed the bat. Actually, the ball has clipped the top of the off stump, and the sound was of that. Third umpire checks the Ball Tracking too, where it has missed the wickets and the ball has gone over them. West Indies burns another review here and now - they don't have any. Can't say that the Windies made a mistake in taking a review, as Shamar is in a fiery spell, and every ball is doing something, and there was a clear sound when the ball passed close to the bat, so that could have prompted the skipper, Hope, to take the review, but now they can only appeal and not challenge the on-field umpire's decision, which could be decisive.

Pitches it up and around off, Rizwan comes forward and blocks it into the deck.

 A bit short and hitting the deck length, outside off, Rizwan taps it to backward point.

Hard length and a bit outside off, Abdullah Shafique blocks it to cover point.

OUT! LBW! Excellent review from WIndies! They have got rid of Abdullah Shafique. On a hard length, from wide of the crease to create an inward angle, around middle, Shafique comes forward a bit and looks to flick it, but misses due to that inward angle and gets beaten on the inside edge. He gets rapped on the back pad and there goes a massive appeal for LBW from the bowler, but the umpire turns it down! However, Shamar Joseph is pretty much convinced and asks his skipper instantly to go for a review. Shai Hope was a bit hesitant, and Roston Chase was seen shaking his head to not take a review, but Hope listened to his bowler and opted for a review before the timer ran out. Third umpire is called in, and nothing is on the UltraEdge. However, Ball Tracking presents three reds, and the on-field umpire will have to change his decision. What a review this has been and what a spell from a spearhead. Shamar has been pretty good with his lines, and he has reaped a reward here. Pakistan are two down.

Tossed it up and around middle, Abdullah Shafique comes forward and defends it.

SIX! TONKED! Motie offers flight and pitches it up again, Abdullah Shafique uses his feet, gets to the pitch of the ball and launches it over long on for a biggie. He seemed to be under pressure of playing too many dot balls, so a nice way to use feet and break the shackles.

Touch short and around middle, Abdullah Shafique tucks it towards deep mid-wicket for a couple of runs.

Around off, defended towards cover point off the back foot.

Bowls it full and around off, slower too, Abdullah comes forward and defends it back to the bowler.

Good length on off, blocked off the front foot by Shafique.

Good length again, around the top of off, Shafique stays solid in defense.

A big shout for LBW but the umpire shakes his head. Jayden Seales seems confident and so does the skipper as Shai Hope takes the review. This is bowled full and on off, nipping back in sharply off the deck. Abdullah Shafique plays the straight drive but plays down the wrong line and seems to be beaten past the inside edge as the ball crashes into the pads. The third umpire is called in and the initial replays confirm that there was a big inside edge. It stays Not Out and West Indies burn a review as well.

Wide! A loosener to begin with from Joseph. Full and around leg, left alone by the batter and this one swings in late as Shai Hope makes a tumbling take down to his left.

Just back of a length and over off, blocked with an angled bat down to point by Shafique.

Play and a miss! On a good length and in the channel outside off, at 137.4 clicks and this one skids on. Shafique looks to cut but is beaten. Just a couple of wides in that over.

EDGED AND FOUR! Babar Azam is looking a bit edgy out there. On a good length, a fair bit outside off as well. Babar looks to hit on the up, but the feet don't go anywhere, and he gets a thick outside edge that flies over the slip cordon and races away into the deep third fence.

A beauty now from Seales! Hard length in the channel, angling in, Babr tries to cover the line and block but the ball straightens late and just beats the outside edge.

OUT! EDGED AND GONE! That is a peach from Jayden Seales! Bowled on a hard length around off and middle at 132.9 kph. The ball pitches and seams away beautifully with some additional bounce. Saim Ayub looks to stay put and block, but the ball kisses the outside edge and goes straight into the clutches of Shai Hope behind the stumps. Windies get an early breakthrough here.
