The Pakistan skipper only added 35 runs on the scoreboard before being dismissed by Aussie all-rounder Mitchell Marsh, early in the game. But his wicket did not come easy as the skipper was handed a life. The 34-year-old was caught in the 26th over but with Marsh crossing the line while bowling, the umpire called it a no-ball, giving a life to the skipper.
