END OF OVER:
20 | 20 Runs | ENG: 209/3 | RR: 10.45

  • Dawid Malan78 (47b)
  • Harry Brook46 (29b)
  • Mohammad Wasim4-0-61-0
  • Haris Rauf4-0-24-0

9.15pm: It's not quite as many as England racked up after being inserted in the third T20I in Karachi, but this is still record chase territory for Pakistan. Dawid Malan anchored things with 78 off 47, with everyone else throwing the bat around him - Harry Brook the most successful, with 46 from 29. Babar and Rizzy chased down 200 undefeated in the second game of the series, remember. Will it continue to skid on with the dew under lights, or have England got enough to make Pakistan's gun opening pair crack under pressure? Miller will be back to find out shortly

Mohammad Wasim to Malan, 2 runs, yorker to finish, 143kph/88mph and Malan digs it out towards deep midwicket. Good ball to finish, but England have done plenty of damage
19.5
1
Mohammad Wasim to Brook, 1 run, short and skiddy, pace on this time as Brook swipes across the line and gets a duff connection behind square

Century stand between these two

19.4
6
Mohammad Wasim to Brook, SIX, WALLOP! Slower ball in the slot and Brook mullers it down the ground, well beyond the boundary boards at long-on
19.3
1
Mohammad Wasim to Malan, 1 run, pitched up wide of the stumps, Malan bunts it into the off side. That's the England 200 up
19.2
4
Mohammad Wasim to Malan, FOUR, full toss squirted to deep backward point! Flies between two men up in the ring for four more!
19.1
6
Mohammad Wasim to Malan, SIX, kerplunked over deep midwicket! Malan picks the cutter and deposits an 88m six, cleanly stuck to leg

Brilliant over from Rauf, there. England still short of 200, with six balls to come... but who will bowl them? Wasim it is, having sent down three for 41 so far

Haris Rauf to Brook, 2 runs, miscued into the leg side, completely done by the lack of pace but it lands in a gap and they pick up two more
18.5

18.4

18.2
1lb
Haris Rauf to Malan, 1 leg bye, full, fast and straight, Malan pinned on the pads... not given but Pakistan review. Did it pitch in line? Definitely no bat as he swung across the line. Nope, just outside leg, so the review is lost
18.1
2
Haris Rauf to Malan, 2 runs, dropped again! Steepling chance to deep midwicket, Malan mistiming a slower ball high into the sky... but Mohammad Wasim shells this one running in!

Two to go, Rauf again

Dr_Shoaib: "A target around 200, and Pakistan will definitely be pleased, with significant chance of overcoming it." They'll have to record the highest successful chase on the ground, in order to do so

  • Dawid Malan62 (39b)

Mohammad Hasnain to Malan, 1 run, short ball, Malan pulls and doesn't time it, just one out to the man in the deep
17.5
6
Mohammad Hasnain to Malan, SIX, banged in, and hammered! Pace on, pace off (the bat)... 137kph/85mph bumper and he swivels the arms up through the line, well over the ropes at deep backward square
17.4
4
Mohammad Hasnain to Malan, FOUR, slower ball, flicked over short fine! This time he anticipates and adjusts, dinking the ball up and away to the unguarded boundary
17.4
1w
Mohammad Hasnain to Malan, 1 wide, back of a length, zipping through down the leg side

"Babar needs to compensate his drop catches by offering us a batting masterclass. Fingers crossed." I imagine he's game, Jassia

17.1
0
Mohammad Hasnain to Malan, no run, Malan down! Short ball, pace off and he's through the shot, hit on the gloves and then the ball rebounds into his ribs. Ouch. And at the end, it's a dot ball

Hasnain for his final over

"Baber don't like 2 over without a boundary...!! So Here Junior Wasim for You....!! England...!!" shrieks Iftikhar Ali. I don't think he liked that bowling chance

16.1

Mohammad Wasim to Brook, 1 run, back of a length and punched to mid-off for a scampered one

Four to go, Wasim to bowl

"'Catches win Matches' - make everyone in Pakistan team write this 100 times each daily until World Cup." Ah no, Abu. Pakistan have already disproved that one
