The Big Question: Is Pakistan too reliant on Babar-Rizwan?
England just need 2 from 27 now. Pretty easy for them. Pakistan have to go back to the drawing board. And a four behind. England with a comprehensive victory.
Nawaz has been sent to the cleaners by Brook and Curran. Two fours from Brook and 2 sixes from Curran. England in a hurry to finish this one off. 22 off this over.
Naseem Shah in to bowl the 13th over and Harry Brook sends his 3rd delivery into the stands. Next ball goes for a four. Asif Ali behind the stumps needed to get something behind it. ENG 135/4 after 13 overs
Mohammad Wasim to bowl the 11th over. And Livingstone with a 6!!! The 3rd ball gets rid of him!! Livingstone slices it and Shadab takes the catch!! The bowler with the last laugh. ENG 104/4 after 10.3 overs
Livingstone has taken this match by the scruff of the neck. Hits 2 sixes and a four off Shadab's 9th over and England are right back in the game. ENG 86/3 after 9 overs
Shadab strikes right after powerplay as he sends Hales back. Just what Pakistan needed. Khushdil with the catch. ENG 61/3 after 7 overs
After handy cameo Stokes times, one straight-to-point fielder of Muhammad Wasim. Stokes departs for 36(18). One striker goes and Liam Livingstone enters.
Another massive over for England. Stokes has made his intentions clear he is going to take the bowling on and finish this chase as quickly as possible. He is striking at 225 with three gigantic sixes and a couple of boundaries. He is 36(16). Change of ball.
Hasanain has been smashed for two massive sixes and a boundary. Stokes pulls the ball into the stands of the first two and Hales hits one over the covers. 20 runs of the over. England 127 from 96 balls.
Naseem Shah cleans up Phil Salt who tries to give himself room and tries to hit the ball to London. He perishes losing all his stumps. Stokes walks in at three. Surprise surprise! Stokes averages 20 in T20Is.
Phil Salt and Hales are in the middle to open the innings for England they need 161 runs from 19 overs. Shaheen looked quick and threatening as usual.
Brilliant final over by Jordan nailed his yorkers and gave away just two runs. Despite having a good start the middle order collapsed for Pakistan. A couple of runouts in the middle didn't help their cause. Some fine bowling by England at the death. If not for Wasim's knock things would have looked even worse for Pak. Let us see what they can offer with the ball because it is going to be fun watching this attack against one of the most destructive batting orders in world cricket.
After a batting collapse in the middle over Wasim took matters into his own hands the right-hander is on 26 of just 14 balls.
Mark Wood bowled a quick over hitting hard lengths. The one ball he tried to pitch it up Wasim smashed him for six. With boundaries being longer this may not be a bad ploy by the bowlers to ball length.
Another tight over by Jordon was followed by the last two overs. Asif will be feeling the pressure to score runs quickly from here on.
Sam Curran bowls a bouncer to Nawaz he gloves it to Butler. It is interesting to see who will England go with as their seam bowling allrounder they have options in Woakes and Jordan but Curran has been in scintillating form for the last few months.
A smart bit of captaincy by Butler bringing in an off-spinner for the left-hander batter Nawaz. Moen bowls a tight over giving away just six. At this stage of the game, those kinds of overs are gold dust.
After 13 overs Pak is 115-5. In form batter, Nawaz is in with the finisher Asif Ali. Will be interesting to see Asif Ali's approach from here on.
The covers are being taken off. However the game is being reduced to 19 over per side.
After a brisk start by openers, Pakistan lose their way a bit. They lost three wickets in the last 10 balls with a run out in it. Asif Ali is the man in the middle with 5(3). Pak 107/5
Left-arm seamer David Willey picks two wickets in the 11th over breaking the backbone of the Pak side. Pak 100/4
After10 overs Pakistan is 90-2 with Shadab and Ifthikar Ahmed in the middle.
