A swallow dive from deepish gully! He just managed to get under the ball and gratefully wrap his fingers around the ball.

Imam c Guptill b Ferguson 19 (Pak 44-2)
Martin Guptill! What a grab - again!
It's short from Lockie Ferguson and Imam-ul-Haq plays it rather badly. He's up in the air, fending his bat forward, and a thick edge flies up into the air. Martin Guptill comes running around at gully and does so well to dive forward, getting both hands under the ball to snaffle the catch before it hits the turf. Brilliant stuff.
Lockie Ferguson is coming on. Can he get Babar Azam? He almost holed out earlier...
It's close, but Pakistan have wickets in hand compared to New Zealand at this stage.

The noise that greets every run is brilliant. Even a clipped single from Imam-ul-Haq is greeted like it's a six.
Babar inside edges onto his pad to end the over. Nervy stuff.
Does he fancy coming and doing a stint on the live?

New Zealand were 44-3 after 10 overs...
Boult 5-0-22-1
A dot ball ends the over.
And again, Boult beats the outside edge! This is great. We're just playing a Test match with the wrong colour kit.
Boult decides to come round the wicket - and he gets cover driven for four. It's greeted with a huge cheer from the crowd. Whoops.
How's he not nicked this?!
Ridiculously good delivery from Trent Boult, swinging and seaming past the outside edge as Babar Azam gets squared up.
And what a shot Babar plays in response! That's too wide, and it's been crashed for four!

Jimmy Neesham's stay at the crease was the longest by someone batting six or lower in a World Cup game since 2003.
Babar 6, Imam 18
A misfield and then a missed call almost ends up with Babar Azam getting run out, but he scampers back home quickly enough as the throw comes in.
It's all very tidy from Matt Henry, and Babar's furious swipe at the final ball of the over just trickles away for a single.
Go big or go home...

Trent Boult is believing every ball that he can get someone out here. It's doing a little bit for him and he's a changed man when that's happening.
Target 238
Imam-ul-Haq drives a leisurely two runs off the first Boult ball, but that's all they can work from the over...
Eyes on the ball...

A tidy back foot push from Babar Azam is well fielded inside the rope by Mitchell Santner, but the Pakistan pair come through for three.

It was in the air for a long time. It wasn't short enough for the pull shot. I didn't think Colin de Grandhomme had that speed in him, it was a brilliant effort.

Pak 27-1
Oh, what an effort from Colin de Grandhomme!
He's a big fella but he's gone leaping after this like nobody's business. Babar Azam goes on the pull and top edges it and De Grandhomme, running backwards, dives but it's just short!
