- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR19.1 Farhan gone, that could make a difference of 10-15 runs. Was a full ball outside off. Farhan went back deep and across to drill a drive, found cover to perfection. Keeper shakes his hand as he walks back 203/615.5 Worked back onto the stumps. The highest partnership for any wicket in men's T20 World Cups is done. Zaman stretching his back leg across to open his stance again and tries to flick the low wide full toss, that was slanting wide of him, through midwicket. Clipped it onto the stumps. He gets a pat on the back from Farhan and raises his bat on the walk back 176/116.3 Nafay promotion doesn't work, he sends a slot ball straight to long-on. There for the step-hit, just outside off, well in reach, so Nafay arched slightly back and got his hands down through the line. Connected a touch too low 179/217.6 Excellent fielding buys SL a run out. Madhushanka overran it to the right, then yanked himself out to the left, stopped the ball in one hand and threw flat to the keeper. Shadab tried to steal two but was well short. Was a wide low full toss that was flicked 198/318.2 Taken at cover. Goldie for Nawaz. Wide fullish ball was slapped, close to being on one knee. Timed well but hit straight to the fielder. Wide lines working somewhat for SL 199/418.4 Not a great ball, wicket nonetheless. Very low full toss around off stump, Salman got low and then tried to drive straight. Went through with the shot, lost hit bottom-hand. Ball went off the outside-half to cover, where Theekshana took a good catch running back 199/519.3 That looks straight. Given. Shaheen was walking off, but goes for the review later. He's walking as the replay comes on. Was a yorker on middle and leg, he cleared his front leg and looked to slog it over midwicket. Missed. Three reds 207/719.5 Misfielded at deep cover, they're trying to steal as many as possible. But Naseem was sent back as Usman wanted to farm strike. Naseem made to wait to see if Usman made it back first or if it was Naseem. Third umpire checking. Naseem didn't ground his bat, Usman did, that's what saves the latter. Was a low full toss just outside off that was driven along the ground through cover 210/8Extras6 (lb 3, w 3)TOTAL212/8 (20 Overs, RR: 10.6)Did not bat: Usman TariqFall of wickets: 1-176 (Fakhar Zaman, 15.5 ov), 2-179 (Khawaja Nafay, 16.3 ov), 3-198 (Shadab Khan, 17.6 ov), 4-199 (Mohammad Nawaz, 18.2 ov), 5-199 (Salman Agha, 18.4 ov), 6-203 (Sahibzada Farhan, 19.1 ov), 7-207 (Shaheen Shah Afridi, 19.3 ov), 8-210 (Naseem Shah, 19.5 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR1.3 Huge wicket, and Naseem has his arms spread! Nissanka moves way too early into the leg side, Naseem yorks this into a fifth stump line. He tries to shovel it away, but can only slice it down to extra cover 8/14.1 Abrar has so much aura with this wicket! The ball skids through from outside off, and back in to pluck out the off-stump bails. Batter missed the cut and looks absolutely bamboozled. Abrar has a slanted smile on his face and a hand in the air, he knows he's here now 33/28.5 Throughhh himmm! Abrar is a little less nonchalant now, relief writ on his face. The ball was floated slow through the air, on a length and spinning back at Asalanka. He went down on his knees and threw everything into this slog. The off stump is pegged back and somehow, Pakistan are still in the running 75/317.3 Skied... taken at long-on. No celebrations. Roaring crowd goes quiet. Slot ball just outside off, Rathnayake has a hearty swipe across the line. Got it off the bottom of the bat. Easy take for Saim, the sub 162/610.6 Baby ball gets a wicket. Abrar isn't fully pleased, slaps his towel onto his knee. Was a shortish ball, bowled from the back of the hand, that took ages to come through. Little to no bounce as well. Mendis went for the pull, way too early into the shot, ball hit close to the base of the stumps. Pakistan still just about in this with 53 needed off 54 94/411.6 Makes room and gets knocked over. Nawaz turns it in more ways than one. He walks and roars as the Pakistan flags fly. 87ks length ball angled in and landed around leg before ripping away. Liyanage made room before the delivery and looked to square drive it with an angled bat and an open face. Got nothing on it. Pakistan now need just five wickets now 101/5Extras9 (lb 3, w 6)TOTAL207/6 (20 Overs, RR: 10.35)Fall of wickets: 1-8 (Pathum Nissanka, 1.3 ov), 2-33 (Kamil Mishara, 4.1 ov), 3-75 (Charith Asalanka, 8.5 ov), 4-94 (Kamindu Mendis, 10.6 ov), 5-101 (Janith Liyanage, 11.6 ov), 6-162 (Pavan Rathnayake, 17.3 ov)
