- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR15.3 have they now got him? Seems a lot closer. Shaw has put in a timely dive and is over the line. But hang on. The bat's in the air. He could be in trouble here. Seems out from the first angle but a lot closer from the other angle. He is cramped on the leg stump and taps it to his right. Shaw takes off the for the single and Musa runs across and picks it up and dives forward with the throw. Releases it in time. Pakistan finally have the breakthrough and Shaw has given them the opening, really 89/117.2 clear inside edge. The noise was discernible. Pakistan bounce back with a brace of wickets. They get into a huddle and have a newfound spring in their step. He chased this at the sight of width. Wanted to punch a back of a length delivery but the ball straightened down the middle-stump channel and took an inside edge on its way to the keeper 94/229.2 straight to point! Short and wide, and tries to cut over the infield, but doesn't have the elevation! Cut straight off the back foot to the fielder there. Well-timed jump from the fielder, and the catch sticks in his hand 148/331.1 another wicket for Arshad! Full and wide outside off and Riyan goes chasing after it. Tries a poke and the feather edge off the outside of the bat goes through to the keeper. It's a 50-50 game once again! 156/433.1 full on leg stump, tries to whip it towards the leg side and misses the shot. Goes through to the keeper down the leg side and they appeal for the caught behind! The umpire gives it out! Feather touch off the bat. Another cheap wicket falls. Pakistan well and truly back 166/545.2 appeal for caught-behind. The umpire is umoved and only raises the finger after seeing Anukul walk. He's completely tucked up by this short ball as it comes on stiflingly at a leg-stump line. He tries to heave a pull after swinging away to get outside the line. Gets into an extremely awkward position and all he can manage is a glove to the keeper 233/647 chopped on! Short of a length, Nagarkoti backs away and the ball cuts back in to cramp him up. Presents a straight bat and gets an inside edge onto the stumps 242/749.1 gone, straight into the hands of midwicket. Full, coming into him, clipped off the pads but can't keep it down 265/849.4 yorker on off, pins him in front. Can't squeeze it away as it dips and hits the back boot. Oh boy, is Gill going to be left stranded here? 267/9Extras9 (nb 3, w 6)TOTAL272/9 (50 Overs, RR: 5.44)Fall of wickets: 1-89 (Prithvi Shaw, 15.3 ov), 2-94 (Manjot Kalra, 17.2 ov), 3-148 (Harvik Desai, 29.2 ov), 4-156 (Riyan Parag, 31.1 ov), 5-166 (Abhishek Sharma, 33.1 ov), 6-233 (Anukul Roy, 45.2 ov), 7-242 (Kamlesh Nagarkoti, 46.6 ov), 8-265 (Shivam Mavi, 49.1 ov), 9-267 (Shiva Singh, 49.4 ov)

- BATSMENRBM4s6sSR5.3 sharp catch from the captain! Good length on off stump, and the left-hander pushes away at it. Takes a thick outside edge and flies towards gully. Shaw dives to his left and the catch is completed at a comfortable height. Pakistan lose both openers 13/23.5 full on leg stump, clipped with ease off the front foot. Looks like it's going over fine leg's head, but nope! Stands near the ropes and takes the catch from near his head. Notices himself going over the ropes, so he pops it up a bit before controlling himself and completing a legal catch. Excellent catch 10/118.4 skies it, and taken at mid off! Tossed up outside off, and he's given it a wild heave. It's a sliced shot, and goes only as far as mid off. Gill keeps his eyes on the ball and completes a regulation catch 41/67.2 to gully once again! Good length on middle stump, and cut away off the back foot, but straight to Shaw! Was hit well, and forced the fielder to quickly dive to his right, but snaffled well. Pakistan in big trouble here 20/311.1 good length on off stump, tries to drive uppishly but slices the shot. It's a skyer, and point is getting under it. Taken! Got big on the batsman there. Porel takes his fourth 28/417.4 soft dismissal! Full outside off and he tries to lift this over cover, takes another thick-ish edge and lands safely into Nagarkoti's hands at point 37/528.5 was his foot inside. Saad gave Anukul the charge but the bowler takes it away from the batsman's off-stump. As a result, he awkwardly reaches out and loses shape. Loses balance and tumbles. Does a neat split leg and slides the backfoot in. But Desai has whipped the bails off at Dhoni-esque speed. The backfoot was an inch away from landing in the crease 68/920.2 terrific take! Runs behind and latches onto it! Full outside off, and it's slogged over the bowler's head. Not hit well enough, and Gill from mid off, runs behind towards the boundary. The ball's going further away from him, and an outstretched dive helps him complete the dismissal. Athleticism at it's best 45/724 soft dismissal! Back of a length outside off and the batsman tries to swing towards the leg side. Takes a top edge with the ball having no pace, and the bowler takes a few steps forward and holds on to the catch. That's the eighth 48/829.3 that's it. It's all over. Abhishek Sharma strikes with his third delivery and India make their sixth final. Iqbal got down to sweep but to the wrong length. Gets a top-edge and deep midwicket settles under it. Porel with the catch. What a game he's had! Raises his arms triumphantly to seal a memorable performance in the biggest match of his life 69/10Extras5 (lb 2, w 3)TOTAL69 all out (29.3 Overs, RR: 2.33)Fall of wickets: 1-10 (Muhammad Zaid, 3.5 ov), 2-13 (Imran Shah, 5.3 ov), 3-20 (Ali Zaryab, 7.2 ov), 4-28 (Ammad Alam, 11.1 ov), 5-37 (Mohammad Taha, 17.4 ov), 6-41 (Rohail Nazir, 18.4 ov), 7-45 (Hassan Khan, 20.2 ov), 8-48 (Shaheen Shah Afridi, 23.6 ov), 9-68 (Saad Khan, 28.5 ov), 10-69 (Arshad Iqbal, 29.3 ov)
