Shadab Khan to Dawid Malan
Full, around middle, Dawid Malan walks across and flicks it through mid-wicket. He turns blind for the second but then stops, looking at his skipper. But Morgan calls him through and they complete the second, Mohammad Rizwan is not happy with the fielder. 4 runs from the over, England need 39 from 24 balls!

Mohammad Hafeez to Dawid Malan

A length ball, outside off, punched towards point for a single.

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
SIX! JUST OVER! A bit too straight, as Hasan goes for the yorker, but does not get it right. It is right in the slot and Eoin Morgan flicks this uppishly. There is a man at deep square leg, Mohammad Hasnain, right at the ropes and he leaps but the ball just tips over!

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
Slower ball now, on a length, Morgan looks to swing to the leg side but gets a toe end of the bat, which bounces past the off stump towards the keeper. Mohammad Rizwan appeals for LBW in a bizarre fashion.
17.4

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
Down the leg side, the skipper walks down the leg side and Hasan follows him. Eoin misses his clip and the ball clips his trouser on its way to the keeper.

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
Another dot. The cross-seam ball, around middle, EM looks to pull but misses.

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
SIX! CREAMED! Morgan has nailed this. Cutter from Hasan Ali and the over-the-wicket angle just makes it easier for Morgan. Till this point, Ali was bowling around the wicket. The ball is pitched up, around middle, Morgan walks across and skies this miles over mid-wicket! 13 from the over, could this be a game-changing gamble? England need 16 from 12 balls.

Mohammad Hafeez to Dawid Malan
MISFIELD! That will help England. Full, around middle, Malan comes down the track and hits it straight down to Shaheen Afridi at long on. Should have been just a single but Afridi fumbles and the hawk-like eyes of Morgan spot that, and he charges back for the second. Hafeez is not happy. England need 12 from 9 balls.
18.4

Mohammad Hafeez to Dawid Malan
OUT! BOWLED! The match is still alive! The arm ball, straight, Dawid Malan backs away and looks to power this through the off side. But the ball pitches, skids through, beats the bat and hits the leg stump! Pakistan supporters roar. England still need 12 from 8. Super Over, anyone?

Mohammad Hafeez to Liam Livingstone
SIX! FEROCIOUS! Oh hellooooooooooo! We have done this before - remember the name! Only this time, it is Liam Livingstone! Full, outside off, Livingstone gets down and mows a massive slog sweep over mid-wicket! England need 6 from 7 balls.
18.6

Mohammad Hafeez to Liam Livingstone
OUT! CAUGHT! 6 and gone for Livingstone. This was more of a free hit for Liam, as Morgan would have wanted strike for the next over. Hafeez realizes that too and tosses this slower through the air. Liam Livingstone is already through his almighty attempted slog and gets a top edge. Simple catch for Sohaib Maqsood at short third man. England need 6 from the final over. Mohammad Hafeez finishes with figures of 4-0-28-3!

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
DROPPED! How costly is that going to be? A length ball, around middle, Eoin Morgan looks to swing it to the leg side but gets a massive top edge. It is near where short mid-wicket would have been but that place is vacant. The bowler himself runs after the ball, gets to it, but cannot hold on! Two runs taken. England need 4 from 5 balls.
19.2

Hasan Ali to Eoin Morgan
OUT! CAUGHT! Morgan departs and Pakistan breathe again! A length ball, around middle, from around the wicket, Morgan shimmies down the track and looks to swing it to the leg side but the ball sticks onto the pitch. The shot is through early and the ball comes on late. It is miscued towards long on where Shadab Khan takes a sitter. Down to two new batters at the crease now. England need 4 from 4 balls!

Hasan Ali to Chris Jordan
Smart batting! A length ball, around middle, Chris Jordan calmly flicks it behind square leg and runs back for the second! England need 2 from 3 balls now.

Hasan Ali to Chris Jordan
ENGLAND SCRAPE THROUGH BY 3 WICKETS! Hasan Ali fires in a yorker, outside off, Chris Jordan backs away and looks to slash hard. He gets an under edge which just misses the stumps and goes towards fine leg. By the time the fielder can get to the ball, Jordan has returned for the second! He pumps his fists in ecstacy.
