    Pak vs England: Wicket!

    Sam Curran strikes again! Brilliant bowling from the southpaw. He had one in deep mid-wicket and Shan Masood hit the ball there. Liam Livingstone, who was standing just ahead of the boundary ropes, didn’t have to move much to take the catch. Masood was dismissed after scoring 38 runs in 28 balls.

    Pak 121/5 (16.3)

  • 14:51 (IST)

    Pak vs England: FOUR!

    Poor fielding effort from Philippe Salt gave Pakistan one four instead of two. Shadab Khan hit a boundary off Ben Stokes in front of the square. Salt covered good ground before putting it into the slide to stop the ball, but his lack of concentration caused the ball to slip from his hands and land on the boundary rope.

    Pak 113/4 (15.2)

  • 14:46 (IST)

    Pakistan vs England: Four!

    Outside off stump, Chris Jordan and Shaan Masood hit it over extra cover. The southpaw has now scored 33 runs off 22 balls. Meanwhile, England pacer Jordan has been expensive for the team in this game so far.

    Pak 104/4 (14.4)

  • 14:45 (IST)

  • 14:01 (IST)

    Pak 33/1 (5.2)

  • 13:59 (IST)

    Pak 8/0 (1)

  • 13:36 (IST)

    PAK vs ENG: Missed out on run out!

    If Chris Jordan had hit the stumps at the non-striker end, Mohammad Rizwan wouldn’t have all the money! The Pakistan batsman bowls the ball in front of Jordan at mid-off and tries to steal a single. He was lucky that Jordan’s throw missed the stumps.
