On a good length, around middle, Rassie nudges it with soft hands through mid-wicket and takes the single.

.
A slower ball, shorter in length, a bit wider outside off, van der Dussen shoulders arms.
13.1
.
Full, around middle, Rassie van der Dussen pushes it towards mid on. Sets off for a single but then quickly changes his mind.
Plenty of encouragement coming from the keeper cum skipper, Mohammad Rizwan. After every ball, he was encouraging the youngster Ayub. Ended the over by saying, 'THEEK HAI, THEEK HAI, KAAM CHAL GAYA!' Meaning, 'It is okay, it is okay, we have got away with it.'

Another carrom ball, on middle and leg, Markram watches it closely, picks the spin and pushes it beautifully down the ground through mid on for a single.
12.2
.
The off spinner now, outside off, fuller, Aiden Markram drives it towards short extra cover.
12.1
.
Landed around middle and leg, another carrom ball I suspect, punched back to the bowler.
It has been a good exhibition of pace by the Pakistan seamers. All three - Afridi, Naseem and Hasnain - have bowled in excess of 140 kph.

EDGED, FOUR! Width and Markram slashes. The boundaries here provide value for your shots. Short and wide outside off, Aiden Markram slashes hard and gets a thick outside edge which flies over the vacant slip cordon. There is deep third present but the ball goes much finer, to his left.

Landed outside off, a touch short, Rassie van der Dussen throws his bat at it and slashes the ball over point for a single.
