Though Holden was the more conservative partner, the pair had put on 98 runs in 52 balls until Gulbadin Naib caught Hales off his own bowling in the ninth over. Naib was in action again as Holden holed out to him at long-on, off Qais Ahmad, for 36 runs in 26 balls. The Vipers were at 107/3 in 10.1 overs.
