EOIN MORGAN HAS BEEN NAMED THE MAN OF THE MATCH. That is it from this one-off T20I then. The 5-match ODI series between these two teams kicks off on Wednesday, May 8, 2019 at 1 pm local (1200 GMT). See yaa then. ADIOS! TAKE CARE!

Hard luck for Pakistan. They tried hard but could not quite keep the pressure sustained. England ran a lot of twos and the fielders were found wanting. That affected the bowling as well with only three bowlers picking up wickets. Surprisingly, Sarfaraz did not employ Haris Sohail, whose left-arm spin is pretty effective.

Captain Morgan's form will be the key for England come the World Cup. He had been going through some patchy form but this knock will increase his confidence. His knock of 57 from 29 balls included 5 fours and 3 sixes and he got his form back.

Comfortable chase for England in the end. They lost Duckett early but Vince and Root got the hosts back on track. Then, Root and Morgan stitched a 65-run stand, which almost laid the platform for the win. And in the end, Denly's cameo 20 from 12 balls crushed any little hopes Pakistan had after Root's wicket.

19.2

Faheem Ashraf To Eoin Morgan

SIX! Game, set and match! Boy, Morgan is pumped up. He understands that this is the first game of a massive summer and this knock is so, so important. A length ball outside off, the skipper jumps down the track and flat-bats it down the ground, over long off! The fielder leaps but in vain! ENGLAND WIN BY 7 WICKETS AND 4 BALLS TO SPARE.

19.1

Faheem Ashraf To Eoin Morgan

Full and outside off, Morgan drives it through the covers for a couple. Excellent half century from Morgan, keeping his side ahead.

Faheem Ashraf to bowl the final over. 3-0-35-0 so far. Pakistan need something special from him.

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

RUN OUT CHANCE, MISSED! Full and outside off, Denly drives it towards cover and sets off for a single. But Morgan does not respond. Denly has to return and is gone for all money but the fielder misses his shy at the striker's end.

18.5

Shaheen Afridi To Eoin Morgan

Around middle, pushed down to long on for one more.

18.4

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

Full on middle, hammered down to long on for one. He has played well, Denly. 20 from just 11 balls.

18.3

Shaheen Afridi To Eoin Morgan

Outside off, pushed through the covers for a run.

18.2

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

Excellent yorker, but that is dug out for a single.

18.1

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

SIX! Has that sealed the deal for England? 11 needed from 11 now. A length ball outside off, Denly just gets across and swings it cleanly over mid-wicket!

Hasan Ali To Joe Denly

Has another heave and drags it down to long on for another single. 12 from the over.

17.5

Hasan Ali To Joe Denly

INSIDE EDGE, FOUR! That is unlucky for the bowler. A length ball outside off, Denly jumps down the track, has a big heave but only manages a thick inside edge past the leg stump to the fine leg fence! 18 needed from 13 now.

17.4

Hasan Ali To Eoin Morgan

Outside off, pushed towards mid off for one more.

17.3

Hasan Ali To Joe Denly

Outside off, punched through the covers for a run.

17.2

Hasan Ali To Eoin Morgan

Outside off, played through point for a single. 150 up for England. 24 needed from 16 balls.

Nasser Hussain on air informs that if this match ends in a tie, there will be NO SUPER OVER. That is sad...

17.1

Hasan Ali To Eoin Morgan

FOUR! Just over! Morgan has begun this over well. A length ball outside off, Eoin chips it over mid off, mistimes it, getting it off the bottom of the bat and just about clears mid off!

16.6

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

FOUR! Great calmness from Denly. England needed that boundary. Denly needed that. Low full toss outside off, Joe comes forward and drives it wide of cover and mid off for a boundary! 29 needed from 18 balls now.

16.5

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

Terrific yorker, outside off, dug out back to the bowler.

16.4

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

Misfield but no run conceded. Full on middle, Denly chips it uppishly but it lands just short of short mid-wicket. Haris Sohail misfields and then returns a wild throw at the bowler's end but cover backs it up.

16.3

Shaheen Afridi To Eoin Morgan

Outside off, punched through point for one.

16.3

Shaheen Afridi To Eoin Morgan

WIDE. An attempted bouncer, around middle and leg, Morgan lets it pass. Way above his head.

16.2

Shaheen Afridi To Joe Denly

Outside off, pushed through the covers for a run.

16.1

Shaheen Afridi To Eoin Morgan

Outside off, tapped towards point for a single.

Heaves it to square leg for one. 15 from the over including the wicket of Root.

15.5

Hasan Ali To Eoin Morgan

MISFIELD, FOUR! Poor Haris Sohail. A short ball, Morgan pulls it through square leg. Sohail rushes across to his left from mid-wicket, gets to the ball with a dive but at the last moment, loses his trousers and slips and hence, misses the ball too. Embarrassing moment for the fielder and double tea-pot from the skipper.
