  1. 6 runs

    WI 32-0published at 4 overs

    Gayle 24, Hope 7

    Classic Chris Gayle. Half a step outside leg and then just tonks another steepling straight six over the fence. Caught in the crowd about four rows back.

    Gayle could wrap this game up in a few overs...

    Pakistan may be losing this game but they still have tremendous support. The crowd chants Mohammad Amir's name as he charges to the crease. It's no exaggeration to say it sounds like this game is being played in Karachi - if a little cooler.

    You don't want too many slower balls in Chris Gayle's arc. I'm standing up, I'm excited!

    That's the record breaker!

  5. 6 runs

    WI 24-0published at 3.2 overs

    HIGH! Massive shot from Chris Gayle, his first proper smash of the day but it falls short of the fence and in fact only goes for two. It just died on the bounce.

    Fetch that! That's a six, absolutely thrashed over the fence.

  6. WI 16-0published at 3 overs

    Target 106

    False stroke from Shai Hope, duffed up into the air on the leg side but it's always falling short of the field. That was a clever slower ball from Amir, who has the loud crowd on their feet now.

    Like an away game where your side are 4-0 down at half-time, you just need something to cheer...

    Chris Gayle is on the verge of a World Cup record - he's hit 37 sixes in the World Cup, a record he shares with AB de Villiers of South Africa.

  8. WI 16-0published at 2.4 overs

    Gayle 9, Hope 6

    Shai Hope picks up two with a neatly timed push off Mohammad Amir. Hope then chips another one over mid-wicket, didn't get hold of it but it's safe enough in the early overs, no fielder out there.

    Gayle's bat has got 'The Boss' written all over it - it doesn't have room for 'universe'.

    Don't forget 1992. First match Pakistan lost to West Indies by 10 wickets and went on to beat England in the final. Could be an omen or a ploy?

    That was going down the leg side.

  13. WI 12-0published at 2 overs

    Gayle 9, Hope 2

    Chris Gayle is not moving very fluently at all. Like a bear fresh out of hibernation. I'm sure he'll come alive soon. And that's a top edge for four!

    Streaky shot. Slowish bouncer. And more! Another edge from the big man, not sure he knew where that was going but it clatters to the fence! If you're going to flash, flash hard.

    Hassan Ali then rattles the last of the over into Gayle's pads but there's no danger there.

    Shai Hope has really come of age. We saw it in the winter when England were there. He's got a very technically organised game, with the patience and a mindset that's all coming together.

  15. WI 4-0published at 1.2 overs

    Hassan Ali opens the bowling from the other end. In he trundles, full, clipped away by Shai Hope.

    What's your approach to an innings like this as a bowler? Just take it as a bit of practice? Or do you really believe you can win?

    Hassan Ali bowls a wide down the leg side.

    Shai Hope has made five one-day hundreds since October 2018. Only Virat Kohli of India has made more in the same period.

  17. WI 2-0published at 1 over

    Gayle 1, Hope 1

    Aggers isn't having Gayle's movement these days. The big man is 39.

    No need to do anything too silly, they only need two an over...and that's what they get from Amir's opener.

    Pakistan will be throwing to Chris Gayle's end every time.

  19. WI 1-0published at 0.1 overs

    Target 106

    Chris Gayle, over 10k ODI runs to his name, stretches out and occupies the crease. A huge man.

    Prods the first ball of the day to leg, defensive shot. And then grabs a quick single.

    Chris Gayle is not exactly mobile these days. He's just going to stand there and whack it.
