6.10pm What an action-packed innings. Warner sprinted to a half-century off 35 balls. He wasn't done yet; he then raised his century off 98 balls. Steven Smith eased his way to 49, Head shellacked a 35-ball fifty, Maxwell went one better with a 34-ball fifty, studded by several trademark trick shots. Hasan Ali claimed his maiden five-for in ODIs, but Pakistan's fielding was the major talking point. Drops, fumbles, overthrows, what not! - they simply out-Pakistan'd themselves. Now, they need 354 - the highest successful chase on Australian soil - to stay alive in the series

The last time they chased down 300 or more, Sarfraz Ahmed led the way. He isn't available today. Who will step up today? Join me back in 40 minutes or thereabouts to find out.

Mazher Arshad tweets: "Hasan Ali's five-for is also the first five-wicket haul of the tour by either team (including Tests)"

Hasan Ali to Maxwell, OUT, Sharjeel hangs onto a dolly, and Hasan does the sajdah, celebrating his maiden five-for. His figures of 5 for 52 stand out amid this carnage. Very full and outside off, Maxwell flits around in the crease and shovel-whips it in the air. Sharjeel takes it at deep square leg. He did not even have to budge

Hasan Ali to Maxwell, FOUR, very, very full on middle, Maxwell steps away outside leg and hoists it straight of mid-off. Don't bother chasing from long-on, Malik. Thuds into the straight boundary
