The openers, Saeed Anwar and Shahid Afridi, put together 101 before Kumble started theslide. He had bowled five innocuous overs before lunch, but a change of ends after thebreak made all the difference. Kumble homed in on the rough areas on a good length withunerring accuracy, and soon Pakistan's batsmen were floundering. Afridi was first todepart, nicking one to the keeper, and the next ball, a yorker fired on middle-and-off,found Ejaz Ahmed in front. Inzamam-ul-Haq prevented the hat-trick, but didn't last long,inside edging onto his stumps. Anwar stood firm making 69, but a vicious lifter had himgloving to short leg; Pakistan had now lost six wickets for 27 runs - and all to onebowler.
