- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR6.1 charges down the ground, and holes to long-on. Shadab strikes off the first ball. Got to the pitch but got neither the power nor the elevation, and Mohammad Nawaz takes a smart catch 62/25.1 Rohit finally top edges one and holes out. It was up in the air for an eon and Fakhar Zaman and Khushdil Shah bumped into each other and nearly made a hash of it. Khushdil just about clings on - very good catch, really. Sharma's blitz comes to a close 54/119.4 Rauf goes for the another yorker but misses his mark this time. Ends up bowling a low full toss that Kohli flicks it towards deep square leg. He is charging back for the second, even puts in the dive but cannot beat the direct hit from Asif Ali 173/79.4 holes out to square leg this time. Yadav made no attempt to keep that down, and the top edge meant it was straight down Asif Ali's throat. Promising little flutter of an innings comes to an end 91/313.5 taken at backward point. Another googly from Shadab but this time he bowled it on a length outside leg. Pant went for the reverse sweep but ended up mistiming it straight to the fielder 126/414.4 excellent catch by Nawaz! Was a cross-seam delivery around off. Pandya moved slightly towards the off side and it appeared he was a bit cramped as he punched it. Ended up hitting it towards short midwicket where Nawaz dives forward and to his left to take it with both hands 131/518.4 back-of-the-hand slower one. A length ball around off, Hooda looks to smash it over long-on but gets more height than distance and Nawaz settles under it near wide long-on area. Falls back as he completes the catch 168/6Extras14 (b 4, w 10)TOTAL181/7 (20 Overs, RR: 9.05)Fall of wickets: 1-54 (Rohit Sharma, 5.1 ov), 2-62 (KL Rahul, 6.1 ov), 3-91 (Suryakumar Yadav, 9.4 ov), 4-126 (Rishabh Pant, 13.5 ov), 5-131 (Hardik Pandya, 14.4 ov), 6-168 (Deepak Hooda, 18.4 ov), 7-173 (Virat Kohli, 19.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR16.5 full, well outside off. Rizwan lofts it towards long-off but Hardik rolled his fingers over it, 129kph. That meant he didn't get the required distance on it despite middling it. Surya gobbles it up 147/43.4 Bishnoi strikes to remove Babar in his first over! Tried to jab it thorugh midwicket, but ends up chipping it straight to the man! The crowd explodes. But - wait - the no-ball is being checked. Babar is told to wait. Think it's juuust about fine personally. It is! India have thier breakthrough 22/18.4 tried to take him on down the ground, and holes out straight to long-on. Slowed the pace of the ball down, and Fakhar just couldn't get the power and elevation to beat Kohli's safe pair of hands 63/215.3 Bhuvi strikes. Short of length around off, rolled his fingers over it. Nawaz looks to go over long-off but it bounces a little extra and Hooda pouches it calmly at the boundary 136/319.4 given lbw, Pakistan surely have to review this. And they do. Was a yorker on the middle stump. Asif was moving across and looks to flick. Misses it and is hit on the front shoe. And he is so deep in his crease. No bat involved and the rest is just a formality. Was hitting middle and off 180/5Extras8 (lb 2, w 6)TOTAL182/5 (19.5 Overs, RR: 9.17)Fall of wickets: 1-22 (Babar Azam, 3.4 ov), 2-63 (Fakhar Zaman, 8.4 ov), 3-136 (Mohammad Nawaz, 15.3 ov), 4-147 (Mohammad Rizwan, 16.5 ov), 5-180 (Asif Ali, 19.4 ov)
