12:01 Local Time, 10:01 GMT, 15:31 IST: An even session, but Afghanistan could regret dropping Sikandar Raza when he was just on 7. He has since then looked good and the hosts have moved along to 94 for 4, trailing by 63 runs. The visitors needed early wickets after having been rolled over for 157 yesterday and the two new-ball bowlers were outstanding. Jaylord Gumbie poked one to second slip, Kaitano was strangled down leg, Ben Curran was caught in the crease and Myers fell to an ambitious shot. At 41 for 4, things looked even, but Raza was then dropped and he has since then added 53 for the unbroken 5th wicket with captain Craig Ervine. Two wickets each for Ahmadzai and Fareed, Rashid Khan has followed up well, but is yet to take a wicket. With Sean Williams injured, the hosts need this pair to go on and convert this start into a significant partnership. We'll be back at 12:40 pm for the post-lunch session.
