    This is where you have to think a bit. Gameplan and Pakistan are not words used together. That is why they are so fun to watch.

  2. Hassan out for 32

    And here is how Hassan eventually got out, falling for the short-ball bait...

  3. Pak 217-7

    Need 91 runs from 72 balls

    Pakistan have just one more over of Pat Cummins to survive, taking three singles off his ninth over.

  4. How's stat?!

    Andy Zaltzman
    Test Match Special statistician

    Pakistan have lost 15 wickets to short balls in their three completed matches so far in this World Cup.

  5. Hassan hits two sixes

    Again, very fun.

    Again, not very smart to go after every ball, given how he eventually got out.

  6. Michael Vaughan
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    Of the 95 runs required, you'd feel Sarfaraz would have to get 50 or 60 of them.

  7. Pak 214-7

    Sarfaraz 27, Wahab 8

    Wahab Riaz nearly takes Usman Khawaja's hand off with a fearsome drive through the covers. A good stop in the end.

    Sarfaraz Ahmed tickles the last round the corner for another single.

  8. Pak 212-7

    Need 96 runs from 80 balls

    Wahab Riaz throws his hands at one angled across by Mitchell Starc and edges it just past the diving Steve Smith in the slips for four.

  9. Asif's horror day continues

    Though Asif Ali might have Shoaib Malik beat for worst performance today.

    Having dropped two easy chances in the field, he then fell for five...

  10. Shoaib Malik today - 0-26 off four overs, a two-ball duck and several mis-fields. He's also 37 years old and not very agile anymore.

    Ramiz might well have a point.

  11. Ramiz Raja
    Ex-Pakistan captain on TMS

    I wonder whether Shoaib Malik is worth his place in this Pakistan XI.

  12. Michael Vaughan
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    The Pakistan support has been tremendous but they have gone flat. I think they realise.

  13. Pak 207-7

    Need 101 runs from 84 balls

    Wahab Riaz repels Pat Cummins. Just two from the over.

  14. Hassan hits Maxwell over long-on for six

    Six or out is not what Pakistan needed. It was fun to watch though...

    Terrible discipline from Hassan and other Pakistan batters. Costing us the game.

    Abulfazal

    Pakistan will always bottle high pressure situations. They don't have that elite mindset to win at the highest level.

  16. How can a team be so good and so bad in the same match?

    Can Sarfaraz Ahmed play one of the greatest ever ODI innings from here?

    Can Wahab Riaz somehow stick around?

  17. Michael Vaughan
    Ex-England captain on BBC Test Match Special

    Pakistan are well on track in terms of runs required. You would take 103 in 15 overs but they have lost seven wickets. Some of the wickets have come from good thinking and good tactics. Aaron Finch is having another good day. He is an astute captain.

    If you analyse the whole Pakistan performance, at times in the field they were atrocious and at times they were magnificent. At times with the bat they have looked like they controlling the game and then they play some silly strokes.

  19. Pak 205-7

    Target 308

    Mitchell Starc returns, looking to blast through the rest of Pakistan, but can't for now, conceding just five from the over.

  20. Ramiz Raja
    Ex-Pakistan captain on TMS

    Hassan has to think like a batsman. After getting a start he has to stay with Sarafraz for a while. The environment breeds champions and I do not know what kind of environment is out there in the Pakistan dug out. These tailenders have to contribute in a situation like this and a batting line-up like this.
