- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR14.4 lovely change in the flight. Saw Rizwan coming out - he charged way too early, and Moeen drops it in shorter. Rizwan couldn't get bat on it, and the keeper had a straightforward stumping to send the Pakistan opener on his way. Rizwan's frustrated, but it's brought to an end an excellent innings. Over to the middle order, then. 117/39.3 kapow! Babar googled! Rashid wheels around in celebration, that was beautifully bowled and it has done for the Pakistan skipper. Flighted wrong'un, gets him coming forwards but he plays all around it. The ball clatters into middle and off, and England finally break the opening stand 85/113.3 a short-arm jab doesn't get the distance, and it brings about the downfall of Haider Ali. It was full, and Haider looked to jab rather than hit through it, and got more height than distance, allowing deep midwicket a simple catch 109/215.1 an ugly shot sees Shan Masood's T20I debut come to a tame end. He brought out the reverse sweep to clear fine leg, but never quite looked comfortable in the shot, and top edges it to the short fine fielder, who has the easiest catch he could hope to get 120/419.2 high full toss is timed towards deep midwicket, where Duckett completes a smart catch just within the rope. There was a brief disucussion about a potential no-ball on height, but that wasnt the case. Iftikhar's more miffed he missed out on a juicy full toss, and England get away with one 156/617.1 but as soon as I say that, a 140kph hard length ball beats Nawaz for pace, and sends his stumps cartwheeling.. The batter looked to hoick it over the onside, but went through his shot a touch too late. England in near-total control now 137/519.4 slower ball. Naseem took his eye off the ball and had an almighty heave at it, but doesn't add to the two sixes he struck a couple of weeks ago. He ends up top-edging it to deep fine, and England pick up another 157/7Extras4 (w 4)TOTAL158/7 (20 Overs, RR: 7.9)Fall of wickets: 1-85 (Babar Azam, 9.3 ov), 2-109 (Haider Ali, 13.3 ov), 3-117 (Mohammad Rizwan, 14.4 ov), 4-120 (Shan Masood, 15.1 ov), 5-137 (Mohammad Nawaz, 17.1 ov), 6-156 (Iftikhar Ahmed, 19.2 ov), 7-157 (Naseem Shah, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.3 short, crunched.... but straight to deep square leg! Haider Ali leaps to take the catch, dances along the rope, and comes up trumps! Looked like a cutter from Dahani, making it harder for Salt to get power on the shot, and it didn't quite have the legs. Superbly held on the move, Haider's foot landing safely a few inches in front of the boundary marker. Pakistan strike early 19/116.4 and falls the next delivery. Had a swipe but ended up skying it to mid-off, where Babar completes a running catch. Pakistan have a sniff, but barely a sniff 142/46.2 flighted, grips and chipped back! Qadir strikes second ball. Gets this one to land and that does him a world of good, just enough purchase on the legbreak and Malan sends it back to the bowler via the inside edge of the bat. Smartly taken going to his left 53/210.5 this reverse sweep was a swing and a miss. Clattered into the pads fairly adjadent and it's given out. England review. Three reds, it's hitting middle and leg, and Duckett falls 87/3Extras7 (lb 2, w 5)TOTAL160/4 (19.2 Overs, RR: 8.27)Fall of wickets: 1-19 (Phil Salt, 2.3 ov), 2-53 (Dawid Malan, 6.2 ov), 3-87 (Ben Duckett, 10.5 ov), 4-142 (Alex Hales, 16.4 ov)
