Karachi Kings batter Tim Seifert batting fluently on 21 was undone by a mystery delivery that he could not read by off-break bowler Usman Tariq who would pause during his action before delivering the ball similar to India's R Ashwin.

However, the latter would slip in that delivery occasionally as a variation but Tariq seems to have imbibed the pause into his action and would do every ball. In addition to Seifert Tariq would also pick James Vince who faced 21 balls for his 37 before getting bamboozled by Tariq's ball which he tried to work on leg-side and missed and was given out LBW. The mystrey spinner in the match would end up with the figures of 2-16 from his quota of four overs. He (Taqir) has a carrom ball and on top of that, he is accurate. The spin is so subtle that it is just enough to beat the bat,' told former Pakistan skipper Misbah on A Sports. 'For the right-handers, he is difficult to face,' he adds. 'If you play him like an off-spinner where the ball comes back in which we have tried and seen but all the batters make the same mistake when we think he is delivering the carrom ball. We try to play him in-line we plant our foot to play but him that subtle turn will get to you LBW or bowled.' Misbah explains. 'When you are facing your first or second ball as a batter in your innings even if you pick it you will make a mistake some way or the other.'
