Ehtysham: "Live from the ground - Covers are being removed." Indeed. Can also confirm that Pakistan's innings is done. We should know the revised target soon.
Dylan Sharma: "First innings has been called. Preparations being made for innings break analysis on air."
3:15pm Umbrellas still out as the drizzle continues. Looks much brighter a minute later, groundstaff over the covers don't have umbrellas. No restart updates yet though.
3:06pm Rain interruption No. 3. Play continued despite the rain for a bit but now it might signal the end of Pakistan's innings. 32 runs in 3.1 overs between breaks, thanks mainly to Hasan Nawaz. That's bound to make a difference. How much? We'll find out soon.
