  1. Pak 208-8published at 83 overs

    England aren't getting this right at all. A leggy delivery allows Mohammad Rizwan to keep the strike with a flick down to fine leg.

    He's up to 48 while Mohammad Abbas still hasn't got off the mark after 17 balls.

    Shane Warne is getting seriously frustrated with England's bowling on the TV.

    As so often happens when the tail starts playing a few shots, the focus gets a bit blurred - when all you've got to do is keep bowling in the right areas in conditions like these.

    Abbas has just let the ball come to him and played with soft hands. That's what he does well.

  4. Pak 205-8published at 82 overs

    Mohammad Rizwan misjudges the situation off the first ball of Stuart Broad's latest over as England restrict him to a single.

    That leaves England with five balls at Mohammad Abbas, who survives despite misjudging a bouncer that ends up striking him on the arm guard as he looks to duck.

    Tea is at 16:30 don't forget. England will want to have bowled Pakistan out by then.

    Such an important innings from Rizwan. Keeping the game alive for Pakistan.

    If they can manage to get another 20 or so it will be a big boost.

  7. Pak 204-8published at 81 overs

    Calm down Mohammad Rizwan!

    He takes a couple of paces down the ground and tries to whack Chris Woakes into Bournemouth but gets nowhere near it.

    Woakes tries to keep him off strike by smearing one in full and wide but it's too wide for Michael Gough's liking and Rizwan takes a single off the extra delivery.

  8. Pak 202-8published at 80.2 overs

    Wayward down the leg side from Chris Woakes and four byes takes Pakistan past 200. That's a big physiological boost.

    England have been a bit meh at times in this session.

  9. new ball

    England have taken the new ball straight away and it's going to be Chris Woakes to continue.

    Two wasted balls at the number 10 who didn't have to play at either of them.

  11. Pak 198-8published at 80 overs

    Stuart Broad is back on and he sends down a wayward bouncer which Jos Buttler does superbly to get across and deflect down to the Chris Woakes for just a single.

    That gives England two balls at Mohammad Abbas but he doesn't have to play at either of them. Wasteful.

    This is fantastic news from the county game too.

    T20 Finals Day 'may have up to 8,000 fans'

    Rizwan has scored 21 from his last 15 balls having scored 24 from his previous 70.

  14. Pak 196-8published at 79 overs

    Mohammad Rizwan is playing a really good hand here as he spanks a cover drive to the fence.

    He's judging the situation perfectly too as he leaves Mohammad Abbas with just two deliveries to keep out.

    It is getting darker again now. Rory Burns and Sibley will be hoping these clouds lift before it's England's turn to bat.

    Cassini: Hell of a run out from Sibley. Hit the stumps from like 30/40 yards away? Ludicrous running but still a lot to do for Sibley.

  17. Pak 192-8published at 78 overs

    Rizwan 40, Abbas 0

    Shot! It's a fraction wide from Sam Curran and Mohammad Rizwan cuts away powerfully for his second boundary.

    And another! It's dug in from Sam Curran but at his pace it's not going to cause a set batsman any issues and the Pakistan wicketkeeper just lifts it over the slip cordon and away for four more invaluable runs.

    The new ball is due in two overs.

    England just have to keep calm here and do the basics right. They are just losing the plot a bit here because they are so desperate to bowl at the number 10.

    Pakistan will be trying to add 10-15 before the new ball comes and the challenge goes up another level.

  20. Pak 183-8published at 77 overs

    Mohammad Rizwan is restricted to a couple after a good bit of relay work in the deep by Dom Bess and Sam Curran.

    He then takes a single off the fifth ball - he is judging this perfectly at the moment.

    This series is the first time I've watched him live. I'd read a lot of good things and he looks a decent player.
