    Amir is playing a different game to the rest of the Pakistan attack.

    Warner 52, Smith 1

    Oh my word. Mohammad Amir is on a different level to his team-mates today. He beats Warner twice in a row and is unlucky not to have two wickets in this over.

    He has bowled five overs and has 1-15. Outstanding.

    More sartorial excellence from the TMS team. An incredible pair of boots.

    Steve Smith steps across his stumps in his trademark style and gets off the mark first ball.

    That was the highest opening stand for Australia in a one-day international in England since 1975.

    Steve Smith walks to the middle at number three and the sun comes out!

    Mohammad Amir has been the exception for Pakistan.

    That wasn't the easiest of catches, the white ball flying high into a grey sky.

    Finch c Hafeez b Amir 82 (Aus 146-1

    A much needed wicket for Pakistan! Mohammad Amir returns to the attack and gets Aaron Finch first ball.

    It's a length ball that Finch tries to smash into the stands but he skies it and the experienced Mohammad Hafeez takes a very good catch over his shoulder.

    That is already David Warner's third half-century in this World Cup. But this time it has come in pretty much a run a ball.

    50 for Warnerpublished at 22 overs

    That's David Warner's fifty! A very good drive through the covers. He has been much better today than he was against India. The opener has been full of intent.

    He reaches 50 from 51 balls. It's his third fifty of the tournament. Crisis?

    How is this same Pakistan team that beat England? It's like watching the keystone cops. The frustrating thing is though, if they could get their act together, I reckon they could run through this Aussie team in these conditions. If wishes were horses and all that.

    Why oh why did England have to come up against Pakistan on a good day? Toothless today.

    This sums Pakistan up.

    That brilliant delivery is followed by a no ball. Really poor.

    Finch fails to find the boundary with the free hit.

    That's a beauty. There is still something there if you can get it in the right place but Pakistan haven't done that enough.

    This deserved a wicket from Hassan Ali. David Warner is completed squared up and the ball passes over the top of middle stump. Warner must have been expecting that to bowl him.

    I'd be keen for Mohammad Amir to have a couple of overs here. Pakistan desperately need a wicket.

  17. Aus 136-0published at 21 overs

    Finch 79, Warner 44

    Aaron Finch is dominating this partnership and is doing a good job of keeping the strike. David Warner has only faced 47 balls whereas Finch has faced 80.

    Warner blocks the final ball and Finch will be on strike for some more fun at the start of next over.

    He didn't time that as well as the previous one but there you go.

    And again. This one isn't middled but it still clears the rope on the leg side. Pakistan have big problems.

    You can tee off because it's not a challenging boundary length - even a mis-hit can clear the rope.
