Matthew Henry and Callum Matthews

  1. Pak 176-4

    Fakhar Zaman pulls the final ball out to deep mid-wicket for a single.

    Australia will need 177 to reach the World Cup final.

  2. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Fakhar was a bit scratchy to start with but hasn't he made up for it. That is the best of the lot.

  3. 6 runs

    Pak 175-4

    Six more! And fifty for Fakhar Zaman.

    He whips Mitchell Starc over mid-wicket. A bit too much length on over that time.

  4. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on BBC Test Match Special

    High and extremely handsome! What a shot that was.

  5. 6 runs

    Pak 169-4

    Shot of the day.

    Mitchell Starc doesn't miss his mark by much at all and Fakhar Zaman just effectively chips it an absolute mile over long on.

  6. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    I was thinking Pakistan would get to 180. Australia could end up the happier side.

  7. Pak 163-4

    Mohammad Hafeez miscues a pull to fine leg for a single.

  8. Jonathan Agnew
    BBC cricket correspondent on BBC Test Match Special

    Pakistan need to make sure they get 170.

  9. wicket

    WICKET

    Shoaib c Starc 1 (Pak 162-4)

    Big swing and a miss! Mitchell Starc doesn't though, with the ball crashing into middle stimp.

    Australia are pulling this back well.

  10. Pak 162-3

    Mitchell Starc will bowl the final over and Fakhar Zaman pulls the first ball to long-on for a single.

  11. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    That is a great over from Cummins.

  12. Pak 161-3

    He can.

    Fakhar Zaman is hit in the grille by a well-directed bouncer from Pat Cummins and they sprint through for a single.

    A brilliant over from Cummins.

  13. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Australia will take anything in the 170s.

  14. Pak 160-3

    Wicket. One. One. Dot. Dot.

    This is a brilliant over from Pat Cummins.

    Can he get out of it?

  15. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    Steve Smith has one of the safest pairs of hands you will see. It was a bit of a dolly.

    I don't think I have ever seen Steve Smith drop a catch.

  16. dropped catch

    Fakhar dropped on 40

    Oh, a shocker!

    Pat Cummins drags one across Fakhar Zaman and the left-hander pulls it down to Steve Smith at long-off. He should take a simple catch, sliding in on his knees, but the ball pops out.

    That could prove costly.

  17. Shoaib Malik is the new batter.

  18. Phil Tufnell
    Former England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    It was a good ball first up from Cummins - a wider, slower ball. A good bit of bowling.

  19. wicket

    WICKET

    Asif c Smith b Cummins 0 (Pak 158-3)

    Asif Ali goes first ball!

    It is a good slower wide ball from Pat Cummins and Asif Ali doesn't quite middle it and Steve Smith takes a comfortable catch about five yards in from the long-on boundary.

    That is a bit disappointing for the neutral.

  20. Pak 158-2

    Fakhar 40, Asif 0

    Mitchell Starc bowls a filthy slower ball down the leg side before executing this yorker.

    Two overs left. Is 190 on the cards?
