    I'm not nailing my colours to any mast. I think it's a good total - in fact, it's better than good. But India... it just seems like they score runs for fun, and Kohli has a ridiculous average in big run chases. But then Pakistan's seamers have been effective throughout the tournament, and they've got Mohammad Amir back in their ranks. I just don't know. Which, again, is the sort of high quality assessment that you come to this live page for.

    That's a good total from Pakistan, although they'll feel they should have got 350. This is Pakistan's second highest ODI score against India. It'll be a corker of a chase, you'd imagine...

    Imad 25, Hafeez 57

    Imad steps away, swipes a short ball to cover, and that's a single to end the innings! So India will need 339 to win.

  4. Pak 337-4published at 49.5 overs

    Dot ball! Excellent from Kumar, full, straight and Imad misses.

  5. Pak 337-4published at 49.4 overs

    Hafeez shouts at himself as he attempts a little flick, and can only get a single. The camera pans to Kohli, who is staring at his feet on the boundary...

  6. 6 runs

    Pak 336-4published at 49.3 overs

    Six! There's not much timing in that, just a big, strong swipe down the ground from Hafeez and it's absolutely flown over the ropes!

  7. Pak 330-4published at 49.2 overs

    Oh, that's good bowling! Hafeez goes outside off stump but Bhuvneshwar sees him coming and spears the ball a touch wider. The batsman can't get near it and he ends up on the floor.

  8. Pak 330-4published at 49.1 overs

    Here's Bhuvi with a slower ball, and it's chipped away for a single by Imad.

    Our vote has closed, and 55% of you reckon that Pakistan will win!

    What's Bhuvneshwar Kumar got in store for this final over?

  10. Pak 329-4published at 49 overs

    The free hit is a full toss that Imad manages to knock away via his thigh, rather than his bat, and they jog a single. That's a messy over from Bumrah - and he was the man who overstepped when he dismissed Fakhar Zaman.

  11. Pak 328-4published at 48.5 overs

    Another no ball! Dearie, dearie me. A penny for Virat Kohi's thoughts.

  12. 50 runs

    50 for Hafeezpublished at 48.4 overs

    Pak 325-4

    Hafeez hoicks the free hit away but only picks up two, before he clips away another full delivery for a single. That's his half-century, and it's greeted with a fairly muted round of applause from the crowd.

  13. Pak 322-4published at 48.3 overs

    What a time to bowl a no ball! Pakistan are struggling to find the boundary and Jasprit Bumrah has been called for height. Free hit! Kohli spits out his chewing gum from his position in the deep...

  15. Pak 320-4published at 48.3 overs

    I admire what Imad Wasim was trying to do there, stepping to the side and trying to ramp Jasprit Bumrah, but it helps when the bat connects with the ball. He's ended up kicking the ball away for a single, rather than hammering it away for the beautiful boundary that he had in mind. Dhoni and Kohli appear to be sharing field placing duties at the moment.

    Oh, Mohammah Hafeez is a lucky boy! He's just inside-edged a full delivery onto his foot, the ball has rolled into his stumps - and it's not knocked the bails off!

    Imad 20, Hafeez 46

    This is good from Bhuvneshwar, going short and then full, and Imad Wasim decides he wants to ramp him. However, Bhuvneshwar sees him coming, spears the ball in short, and Imad gets tapped on the head for his troubles. That's a superb over for India - four runs and a leg bye conceded.

    Bumrah 8-0-58-0

    Jasprit Bumrah is back, and he's just been dispatched with impunity for four! That's great, a step to the side, a club down the ground and he beats Haridk Pandya, darting around on the boundary. He then goes for a reverse sweep, misses by a mile and receives a stern word from his batting partner.

    340 is still there for Pakistan. But will it be enough to challenge India? They've got Mohammad Amir back in the side and the bowlers are full of confidence at the moment.
