Shoaib Malik	c Harbhajan Singh b Pathan	59	183	145	7	1	40.68
44.3 Pathan to Malik, OUT (Caught) - Pathan strikes! pitched up and angling across, Malik drives on the up but fails to keep it down, Harbhajan at cover times his jump to perfection and takes to good high catch to give India the much needed breakthrough, that was a lazy looking shot and he plays the price 136/2
Salman Butt	run out (Yuvraj Singh)	6	10	6	1	0	100.00
2.1 Pathan to Shoaib Malik, Pathan to Malik, OUT (Run Out) - and disaster strikes! on the pads and Malik turns it away well wide of Yuvraj at short leg, Butt looking for the single is sent back but a fantastic throw from Yuvraj at the bowler's end traps him short of the crease, India strike early 12/1
Younis Khan	run out (Harbhajan Singh)	199	476	336	26	0	59.22
119.2 from Kumble, Kumble to Khan, OUT (Run Out) - what a mix-up! full and on the pads, driven straight to Harbhajan at mid-off and Khan takes off for a quick single but Afridi strands his ground, Harbhajan hits the striker's end stumps direct and Younis Khan is out by a long way, even a frantic dive couldn't save him - sad end to a fine innings 478/5
Mohammad Yousuf	st †Dhoni b Kumble	173	270	199	22	2	86.93
111.3 Kumble to Youhana, OUT (Stumped) - gone! tossed up and turning away, Youhana comes down the track looking to go inside out over covers but misses the target by a long away and Dhoni does the rest 456/3
Inzamam-ul-Haq*	lbw b Kumble	1	7	7	0	0	14.28
113.4 Kumble to Inzamam-ul-Haq (OUT) lbw - Kumble strikes again! and it's the flipper that gets the big man, full and straight on the stumps, Inzi makes no contact with the sweep shot and is trapped plumb in front of the stumps, Pakistan four down! 457/4
Shahid Afridi	c Harbhajan Singh b Agarkar	103	111	80	7	7	128.75
140.5 Agarkar to Afridi, OUT (Caught) - short ball, Afridi comes down the track and swings hard but this time the shot is not timed well enough and the ball balloons up towards long-on, Harbhajan moves across in the deep and makes no mistake, an entertaining knock comes to an end. 648/6
Kamran Akmal†	not out	102	108	81	11	2	125.92

Naved-ul-Hasan	c Ganguly b Agarkar	9	16	13	1	0	69.23
144.4 Agarkar to Naved-ul-Hasan, OUT (Caught) - good length delivery, Hasan goes after it and ends up hitting it high up towards mid-off, Ganguly there takes a fantastic catch and Agarkar gets one to his name - for a moment it looked like Ganguly there mis-judged it but he kept his eyes on the ball and in the end pulled out a stunner. 669/7
