  • Pat Cummins4-0-30-1

Matthew Hayden: "It's a conflict of interest obviously, because my heart always beats for Australia. But I love being part of this Pakistan team, they're exceptional, and tonight they've been brilliant. Rizwan was in hospital yesterday, but he was fit to play today, and he showed exceptional bravery."

7.44pm Wow. That was a thoroughly entertaining innings, and Fakhar's hitting has lifted Pakistan to a commanding total. They know the conditions here intimately, and they'll be confident they can defend this. Teams scoring 175-plus on this ground, batting first, have won 9 out of 10 matches.

Adnan: "Pakistan got 54 at 13.5 an over off last four overs. Maintaining their record of finishing high at the back end of the innings that too despite that 19th 03 run over from Cummins..."

Starc to Fakhar Zaman, 1 run, slower ball, back of a length, and this sort of ball has been harder to hit all evening than the yorker. Sticks in the pitch a little, angles in towards off stump, and Fakhar pulls without too much timing towards deep midwicket

Starc to Fakhar Zaman, SIX, this isn't the best over Starc has bowled. And Fakhar brings up what has been a terrific fifty. Again he looks for the yorker, and again he isn't full enough. Maybe he hasn't adjusted to Fakhar sitting so deep in his crease. Anyway, clears that front leg again and absolutely hammers the whip over the midwicket boundary
