    McCarthy to Naveen-ul-Haq
    taken at deep backward point! Naveen looked to slice it stylishly with a full swing of the arms, but fell this time. The ball flew off the outside half of the bat, as it was bowled full and wide of off. Simple catch for the man on the boundary, who took it with a reverse cup. Ireland go 1-0 up in the series

    taken by long-on moving to his left! Little angled this in, and the ball ended up being a dipping full toss just outside off. Rashid lofted from deep in the crease, but couldn't get it away, with Tector moving to his left in time, and taking it in front of his chest
