9.2 OUT! RUN OUT! Axar Patel with the direct and Imam-ul-Haq is gone! Restlessness seemed to creep in and Imam felt that he needed to get a move on. Attempts a risky single and pays the price. Tossed up by Kuldeep, on middle, Imam shimmies down the track and drives it towards mid on. He times it nicely and hence, it travels quickly towards Axar Patel. Axar swoops in, picks the ball quickly and knocks the stumps down at the bowling end. Imam puts a dive in but still falls short. Imam-ul-Haq departs for 10 (26) and Pakistan are 47/2 after 9.2 overs. 47/2

| Babar Azam | 23 | 26 | 5 | 0 | 88.46 |

8.2 OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Hardik Pandya breaks through for India! Hardik pulls the length back and it is in the channel on off, Babar goes for the drive again but the ball seams back in a bit to catch the outside edge and it goes behind. The keeper KL Rahul makes no mistake as he takes it around his knee to his right. Babar looked good but his stay has been cut short. Hardik gives him a bit of a send-off as he falls for 23 (26). Pakistan are now 41/1 in 8.2 overs. 41/1

| Saud Shakeel | 62 | 76 | 5 | 0 | 81.57 |
|
34.5 OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Hardik Pandya gets his second wicket and the adventurous Saud Shakeel departs. Pakistan has now lost both the set batters in the span of just ten deliveries and India is back in the hunt massively. Hardik smartly pulls the length back, and keeps the line of attack slightly outside off. Saud Shakeel stands tall and tries to pull it behind square leg. He is through his shot a few milliseconds early and that is enough to mistime the ball in the air. Axar Patel in the deep, moves a bit to his right from deep square leg, settles under the ball and takes a fine catch. Saud walks back into the hut after scoring a handy 62 (76). From a commanding 151/2, Pakistan has slipped down to 159/4. 159/4

| Mohammad Rizwan C Wk | 46 | 77 | 3 | 0 | 59.74 |
|
33.2 OUT! KNOCKED HIM OVER! Axar Patel with that important breakthrough of Rizwan and that dropped catch doesn't cost India many runs off him. Axar Patel darts it in, fuller and very quicker on the stumps. Mohammad Rizwan comes down the track and tries to play the hack, but plays the wrong line and the ball beats his bat. Rizwan almost yorks himself up and the ball crashes into the stumps. Mohammad Rizwan departs on 46 (77) and Pakistan are 151/3. Axar manages to break this 104-run stand for this third wicket. 151/3

| Salman Agha | 19 | 24 | 0 | 0 | 79.16 |

42.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Oh, Ravindra Jadeja slips but manages to hang on and what a timely wicket for India here. Kuldeep Yadav tosses this one up, slower and on the pads, Salman Agha dances down the pitch to hoick it over mid-wicket but doesn't quite reach to the pitch of the delivery. The ball turns in and gets skewed off the leading edge to the left of covers. Jadeja there just runs back a bit and dives to grab the catch but slips and lands awkwardly, doesn't spill the ball though. 200/6

| Tayyab Tahir | 4 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 66.66 |
|
36.1 OUT! CLEANED HIM UP! The bowling change works like a charm for India! Ravindra Jadeja strikes with his first ball on his return to the attack. Starts from around the wicket and spears it in, short and on off and middle, Tahir stays leg side of the ball and takes the risk of guiding it behind square on the off side from the stumps. Tries to open the bat face to access that area and ends up playing inside the line of the ball as the ball straightens a touch to whizz past the outside edge. The ball goes through to crash into the stumps. 165/5

| Khushdil Shah | 38 | 39 | 0 | 2 | 97.43 |
|
49.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Up, up, but not long enough! The pressure was on after those dot balls and in the end, Khushdil Shah has been undone by some smart bowling from Harshit Rana. Rana bangs it into the deck, just short of a length and around off, Khushdil Shah tries to get under it and pull it over the fence but loses his balance and skies it up towards the square leg fence. Virat Kohli settles under it and takes a safe catch to bring Khushdil's fighting knock of 38 runs to an end and Pakistan are all out for 241 runs in 49.4 overs. 241/10

| Shaheen Afridi | 1 | 0 | 0 | 0 | |

42.5 OUT! LBW! Two in two for Kuldeep! Or is it? That seemed fairly adjacent but Shaheen Afridi has reviewed it right away. The big googly now from Kuldeep Yadav, on a dragged length and gets it to turn back in sharply from outside off. Afridi gets back and right across the off stump to cover the line but is beaten past the inside edge and gets struck on the front pad. Nothing on UltraEdge and Ball Tracking comes up with three reds. That's hitting the middle of the middle and Afridi goes for a golden duck. Kuldeep on a hat-trick as well! 200/7

| Naseem Shah | 14 | 16 | 1 | 0 | 87.50 |

46.4 OUT! CAUGHT! Chipped to long off and Kuldeep Yadav gets his third wicket! Kuldeep comes around the wicket and floats it up on middle and leg, it is the googly though that turns away from the right-hander. Naseem Shah steps out but the ball stops on him and he can't follow-through on the swing and just checks his shot, chipping it over mid on. Virat Kohli charges in from the deep and dives forward to take a fine low catch. 157th catch in ODI cricket for Kohli - the most for any Indian as a fielder. Pakistan are now 8 down for 222! 222/8

49 OUT! RUN OUT! They just had to push for two there but it wasn't quite there for the taking. Shami goes full again and gets the ball to tail back into the toes, Haris Rauf clips it away wide of the fielder at deep mid-wicket and the batters push for two. Axar Patel rushes in and fires in a flat throw at the keeper's end, right on top of the bails and KL Rahul does the rest. Rauf has to walk back here! 241/9

5 OUT! BOWLED'EM! Finally, Shaheen gets this one right and Rohit's nemesis comes back to haunt him! A proper inswinging toe-crushing yorker, tailing in late on middle and leg. Rohit Sharma is a bit late to jam his bat down in time and the ball just shoots towards the stumps in a blink. Rohit Sharma departs on 20 (15) and India are 31/1. Excellent pace variation from Shaheen, as he bowled a pace-off delivery in the last ball, but cannoned this one right through the gates. 31/1

17.3 OUT! BOWLED'EM! How's he pulled that off? Abrar Ahmed with a bamboozling delivery that has taken everyone by surprise. Abrar tosses this one up at around 88 clicks and drifts it on a nagging length onto middle and leg. Shubman Gill presses back and looks to play down the line off the back foot but the ball grips and rips away past the outside edge and knocks over the top of off. It needed a special delivery to get rid of Gill and he now departs for 46 (52). Can Pakistan now build on this? 100/2

38.5 OUT! TAKEN! Excellent catch by Imam-ul-Haq! Khushdil spots Iyer backing away and he follows him. Serves it right up there in the blockhole, Iyer moves to the leg side and tries to get under the ball to drill it past cover. Hits it flat towards cover where Imam flings himself to his right and holds onto a spectacular catch. Iyer falls for 56 (67). India are now 214/3, needing 28 runs. 214/3

40 OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! End of a brief but entertaining stay for Hardik! Afridi stays around the wicket and hurls a bumper at the left shoulder of the batter, Hardik tries to help it away with the angle but the ball gets a bit too close and big on him. The ball brushes the glove on the way through and the keeper Mohammad Rizwan makes no mistake to his left. 223/4
