2nd ODI, Lord's, London , Jul 10, 2021
247 (45.2/47)
195 (41.0/47)
England beat Pakistan by 52 runs
That's your lot for the day. The third ODI is on 13th July 2021 at Edgbaston. The action will begin at 1 pm local (12 pm GMT) but you can join us in advance for the build-up. Until then, it's goodbye and cheers from our side.
Got to feel bad for Hasan Ali. He had an outstanding match, both with the ball and bat. His fifer broke the back of England's batting and when the chips were down, his attacking batting sent shivers in the English camp. Despite all his heroics, he had to end on the losing side this evening and that's very unfortunate. Anyway, it's part and parcel of the game.
Lewis Gregory, the MAN OF THE MATCH, says that it was the case of taking it as deep as possible and bat a few overs. Tells that the ball nibbled a bit all day and he felt that they could pitch it up and get some wickets. Feels that the guys were outstanding. Mentions that it is a fantastic opportunity for the lads to show what they are capable of.
Ben Stokes, the England skipper, is thrilled with the way they showed intent with the bat early on. Mentions that it was a tricky middle period for them with the bat but also adds that it was pleasing to see the inexperienced players showing the attacking mindset. Calls England's performance with the ball clinical and tells that picking early wickets always helps while defending scores. States that Gregory and Carse are capable batsmen and their partnership gave England a good total. Says that they have won the series but there is nothing like continuing the winning streak and promises to come even harder in the next match.
Babar Azam, the Pakistan skipper, says that they bowled well in the first 10 overs but they needed to maintain the same intensity. Adds that Hasan Ali bowled outstandingly well. Tells that they did not utilize the first 10 overs with the bat and did not get any big partnerships either and they need to rectify that in the next game. Goes onto say that Hasan Ali was brilliant and Saud Shakeel showed his passion and he performed well. Adds that they will try their best to win the last match as crucial World Cup Super League points are at stake.
Time for the presentation...
After a stuttering batting show by the English batsmen, it was necessary for their bowlers to put the best foot forward. Saqib Mahmood and Lewis Gregory were once again brilliant with the new balls as they maintained a tight grip on the scoring rate along with giving Pakistan the initial blows. The second line of the English bowling attack comprising Craig Overton, Brydon Carse and Matt Parkinson was quite impressive as well. Altogether, it was a complete team effort although the victory didn't come as easy as it came in Cardiff.
Chasing a target of 248, all Pakistan needed was a steady start. But their top order flopped again. Fakhar, Babar and Rizwan, the in-form batsmen for them, had yet another forgetful outing with the bat. The Pakistan skipper did play a few delightful shots before getting out but Zaman struggled big-time during his stay. In the first 10 overs, three wickets were down and the touring team was always behind the 8-ball from thereon. Saud Shakeel was the only batsman who showed the composure and desire to stay out in the middle and build an inning. He notched up his maiden ODI fifty and kept a little bit of hope alive for Pakistan. There were a couple of moments when Pakistan managed to scare England. One was when Hasan Ali took Matt Parkinson to the cleaners and another was when the stand between Saud and Shaheen Afridi was blossoming. It was taking Pakistan slowly but steadily towards the target. One thing is for sure, had Pakistan been more sensible in preserving their wickets, they would have ended on the right side of the result. This is something for the team management to ponder on.
It was not a perfect game by any means for England as they had their fair share of struggle, mainly with the bat. After starting on the wrong note, Salt and Vince steadied the innings with their attacking partnership. Just when it appeared that the hosts will run away with a big score on the board, Pakistan bounced back via their spinners. Shakeel and Shadab combined to remove both the set batsmen and then the Three Lions suffered a collapse. They lost 5 wickets in the blink of an eye and were staring down the barrel. Then, came an unlikely alliance between Gregory and Carse. The pair added 69 runs for the 8th wicket and helped England recover from a precarious situation.
Victory for England and they have taken an unassailable lead in the series along with strengthening their position at the top in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup Super League.

Matt Parkinson To Saud Shakeel OUT!
OUT! End of Saud Shakeel and it's the final nail in the coffin of Pakistan. Matt Parkinson once again gives it a good toss and tempts the batsman. It lands full around middle and Saud kneels to smoke it over mid-wicket and into the stands. But to his bad luck, his shot doesn't have enough distance and it falls straight down the throat of Craig Overton near the fence. A dejected Shakeel walks back but he has shown to his teammate that it was doable.

Drinks! The last over has brought this chase back to life somewhat! Pakistan appeared down and out but Hasan Ali's onslaught in the 30th over has given them a semblance of hope. He is already moved to 29 off 14 balls and if he stays out there any longer, Pakistan will start to fancy their chances. England are still on top but they would want to dismiss Hasan Ali as soon as possible.

NOT OUT! Brilliant bowling by Parkinson. He dishes out a googly around off and gets it to spin away from the forward defensive prod of Shakeel. It beats the outside edge and Simpson is quick to dislodge the bails. They appeal and it's referred upstairs. The third umpire first checks for the outside edge which is absent and then goes on to check for the stumping. The replays show that Shakeel's back leg is inside the line.
An appeal for stumping taken upstairs. Simpson looks confident. Saud Shakeel is just in. Not out will be the signal.

OUT! WHAT A GREAT REFLEX CATCH BY SIMPSON! Good anticipation shown by the English keeper and his little piece of brilliance has given England the seventh wicket. A floated leg spinner, landing full around leg, Faheem goes down and across to play the paddle sweep. Simpson senses that and moves across to his right swiftly. It takes the edge of Ashraf's bat and lobs behind where Simpson is ready to catch it with his big gloves. Pakistan are nearing a series defeat now.

Lewis Gregory To Shadab Khan OUT!
OUT! CAUGHT! Straight to the fielder at third man! England are all smiles at the moment! Another partnership was building but the hosts have managed to break it before it could become dangerous. Gregory bowls a short one outside off, Shadab Khan hops and looks to play the upper cut but doesn't time it too well. It has not got the distance and it goes towards third man where Matt Parkinson manages to hold on to the catch as it nearly popped out. 133 needed in 132 balls.

Craig Overton To Sohaib Maqsood OUT!
OUT! The blossoming partnership for Pakistan has been nipped in the bud. Sohaib probably got carried away with his attacking instinct. Overton persists with a shortish length delivery, close to off, Maqsood spots the opportunity to once again muscle a horizontal bat shot but this time the bounce gets big on his bat and the ball catches the top edge. The English keeper John Simpson circles around it by moving across to his right and takes the catch safely, well almost safely. End of entertainment from the bat of Maqsood. 162 needed more but only 5 wickets left in the bank for the tourists.

Craig Overton To Fakhar Zaman OUT!
OUT! Sound of timber! Fakhar Zaman has been put out of his misery. End of a very uncharacteristic knock by Fakhar, it had struggle written all over it. Credit to England to keep the batsman of Zaman's caliber quiet. Overton bowled a delivery that held its line before this one and on this occasion, a length ball lands around off and nips back in off the seam. Fakhar thinks of playing a full-blooded drive but leaves a big gap between his bat and pad. The ball sneaks through to shatter his stumps and somewhat Pakistan's chances in this game. 195 needed off 199 balls.

Saqib Mahmood To Babar Azam OUT!
OUT! LBW! All reds it is and Babar Azam goes, taking a review with himself. It is once again Mahmood who gets rid of Babar Azam. Length ball around middle, Azam looks to defend but gets hit on the pads. Saqib Mahmood and company appeal and the finger has gone up. Azam has taken the review after Zaman convinces him to. The Ultra Edge shows nothing while the Ball Tracker shows all reds. Pakistan in trouble early on.
Babar Azam has been given out LBW! He has taken the review. The Ultra Edge shows nothing while the Ball Tracker shows all reds and Babar Azam has to go.

OUT! CAUGHT BEHIND! Excellent start from Lewis Grgory and Imam-ul-Haq's poor form continues. Gregory is having a good game here. Length ball around off, it moves away. Ul-Haq looks to defend but it takes the outside edge and it goes to the left of the keeper. Simpson moves to that side and takes a good catch.
Who will bowl from the other end? Lewis Gregory it is.
