OUT! Caught. Faheem Ashraf to Kusal Perera. Length ball, wide outside off stump deep in crease Slog, mis-timed in the air uncontrolled to deep backward point, caught by Riaz. That's the end of the first innings, and Hyderabad Kingsmen have posted a competitive total on the board. After the early dismissal of Sadaqat, Marnus Labuschagne and Saim Ayub batted brilliantly to steady things, but United's spinners came back strongly to pick up three quick wickets and slow the scoring. Usman Khan then played a magnificent unbeaten 61 to push the total further, with Kusal Perera providing good support with 37. Hyderabad will feel confident with this score as we head into what promises to be an exciting run chase.
