- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR2.5 GONE! Haris tries to get funky again, backing away to a shorter ball and trying to help to fine leg. The fielder is up, so it makes sense, but the delivery is too close to the body and the right-hander ends up giving Adil Rashid catching practice 14/13.2 Masood moves across to play around his front pad and is given out leg before! Reviews immediately... but that's hitting in front of middle stump and projected to hit leg. Pakistan lose a review 15/28.4 SHORTIE DOES THE TRICK! It's hardly threatening, but Curran's deliveries into the pitches finally come good as Haider tries to clear the fences but only finds Duckett running in from cow corner 62/314.3 clubbed... straight to long-on! Sam Curran makes something happen for England. Another cutter, Ifti was looking to launch it but his timing was off. Holes out after some decent middle-overs tonking 110/416.6 short, wide... and uppercut to deep point! Don't think it was pace off, but Asif hit it much too square. Wanted just to ramp the ball down to third, instead dinked it down the throat of Topley, who took it reverse-cup in front of the ropes 136/519.6 slower ball, mistimed to long-off! So Topley finishes with a W, another back-of-the-hander and Nawaz couldn't time his mash down the ground. But Pakistan will be happy to have taken 19 off the final over 169/6Extras5 (lb 3, w 2)TOTAL169/6 (20 Overs, RR: 8.45)Fall of wickets: 1-14 (Mohammad Haris, 2.5 ov), 2-15 (Shan Masood, 3.2 ov), 3-62 (Haider Ali, 8.4 ov), 4-110 (Iftikhar Ahmed, 14.3 ov), 5-136 (Asif Ali, 16.6 ov), 6-169 (Mohammad Nawaz, 19.6 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR3.5 FINALLY! A much-needed wicket for Pakistan. Goes down to sweep the leggie but the extra bounce produces a top edge that Dahani snaffles at short fine leg 55/19.3 scuttled by a grubber! Malan has been absolutely done here, but he reviews anyway, probably just annoyed at being shot out by a half-tracker... Pitching in line, smacked on the shin in front of middle and leg. Plumb pudding for tea! Not much he could do about that, and Shadab has another 128/2Extras3 (lb 1, w 2)TOTAL170/2 (14.3 Overs, RR: 11.72)Fall of wickets: 1-55 (Alex Hales, 3.5 ov), 2-128 (Dawid Malan, 9.3 ov)
