Summary

  1. USA 7-0published at 0.3 overs

    Perfect yorker.

    Single.

    Take note, Haris Rauf.

  2. USA 6-0published at 0.2 overs

    Better, but it's good running.

    In the blockhole, clipped into mid-wicket for two.

  3. USA 4-0published at 0.1 overs

    Well, that's a start.

    Cut past point for four!

    But again, the bowling is trash. Short, wide outside off stump.

    Well, this is interesting.

    Aaron Jones and Harmeet Singh to face the super over. Risky one, sending someone who hasn't batted yet.

    And Mohammad Amir is bowling for Pakistan.

    It's a proud day for USA cricket whatever happens.

    Will USA be kicking themselves for not winning the game? Most teams win from the position they were in.

    Aaron Jones has nerves of steel!

    I'd have Andries Gous and Monank Patel batting for the USA.

    I know Aaron Jones is in, and has got his eye in, but those two were brilliant through the middle.

    Right, let's get some rules out there.

    USA will bat first in the super over. If the super over is tied, they keep going until there's a winner.

    I actually don't think Pakistan will mind this, considering where they were about five overs ago. They were throwing it away.

    Just extraordinary. What was Haris Rauf thinking? It was a full toss again, hit down the ground so easily.

    Babar Azam is absolutely furious.

    What have you got Aaron Jones?

  16. USA 148-3published at 19.3 overs

    Need 12 from 3 balls

    Single.

    Jones back on strike.

    Three fours will do it.

  17. dropped catch

    Jones dropped on 28published at 19.2 overs

    Need 13 from 4 balls

    Technically it's a drop, but more importantly it's a saved boundary.

    Aaron Jones launches it towards Shaheen at mid-off, who puts it down but that was hit so hard. He does well, weirdly, because Jones is off strike.

  18. USA 146-3published at 19.1 overs

    Need 14 from 5 balls

    Good yorker from Haris Rauf.

    Just a single, but crucially, it gets Aaron Jones on strike.

  19. USA 145-3published at 19 overs

    Need 15 from 6 balls

    The lesser-spotted three!

    More great running, but some sloppy fielding from Iftikhar Ahmed at long-on allows the batters to scamper through.

    15 from the last over. Strap yourselves in!

  20. USA 142-3published at 18.5 overs

    Need 18 from 7 balls

    Another precious dot ball...
