However, just when Afridi and Warner entered the play area, there was just a display of skills by the two professionals. Warner smacked three boundaries against Afridi in one over to begin day 4.
The Australian opener was looking in complete rhythm and reached his fifty in 87 balls with the help of six fours and one six. Warner was set and could have only got out to a special delivery.
Shaheen Afridi was once again called back to bowl a spell. The in-form young Pakistani pace sensation did exactly what he is known for - bowling magical deliveries and troubling the opening batters.
On the first ball of the 29th over, Afridi bowled a length ball that came in with the angle and straightened after pitching. Warner could only play for the angle but the ball beat his bat and sent the off-stump cartwheeling.
