Amjad Javed to Shoaib Malik, no run, Malik drives and is beaten! Gets on the front foot but chases the ball outside off without moving towards the line at all, beaten by the outswing
Kalaga: "Pak needs a partnership for 4-5 overs. They should not care about runrate. Just try to settle down like Yuvi and Rohit handled the situation in India match."

Amjad Javed to Shoaib Malik, no run, solid defence, Malik strides forward and blocks confidently, that was good length outside off stump
Kashif Muneer: "It was a terrible mistake by the selectors to leave Mohammed Rizwan out of the team. He was aggressive batsman, amazing fielder and can keep if needed. He needs to come back for world T20. Also Babar Azam should be in the squad. On a different note. That Sharjeel dismissal was not out so unfortunate to get such a decision when you are trying to come back into the team. Keep trying young man! Chin up!"
Shoaib Malik is the new batsman.
3.1
Amjad Javed to Mohammad Hafeez, OUT, Pakistan have lost a third wicket! Hafeez has been caught at cover! He strode forward to a full ball that was swinging away from him and drove it flat and straight to the catcher at cover. That was hit quite hard.d Oh my, are we on course for an upset? Hafeez has a bit of a shocked look as he walks off. Again, Pakistan are playing with zero intensity.

Amjad Javed to Mohammad Hafeez, 1 wide, a decent amount of outswing for Javed but the line is too wide outside off stump for the batsman to play at it
End of over 3 (5 runs) Pakistan 16/2 (114 runs required from 17 overs, RR: 5.33, RRR: 6.70)
