  1. Pak 57-0published at 7.2 overs

    That is a serious shot.

    Mitch Marsh drops short and Babar Azam pulls beautifully between mid-wicket and long-on. He placed that perfectly.

    He's now got more than 2,500 runs in T20 internationals.

    Sixth bowler time for Australia. Mitch Marsh is on.

  3. Pak 50-0published at 7 overs

    Good start from Adam Zampa. Just four singles from his first over.

    Aaron Finch needs a breakthrough so he turns to leg-spinner Adam Zampa.

    He's taken 11 wickets in this tournament.

    This is Pakistan's most productive powerplay of the tournament.

    There was a four and a three earlier in that over by the way.

    I missed it because someone came to ask what time we'd be finished so they could fix a dent in the office desk!

    You catch a couple of those out of 10.

    That was travelling. I wouldn't have fancied that catch. It was a great effort.

  9. dropped catch

    Rizwan dropped on 20published at 6 overs

    Pak 47-0

    A drop or a very good stop? The former I think.

    Mohammad Rizwan is living a charmed life here. He flicks down to fine leg and Adam Zampa dives forward but the ball hits his wrist and the opportunity is gone.

    Decent powerplay for Pakistan. They are in control.

    Does Babar see the world in slow motion? Everything he does is so elegant and classy and too easy.

    Kash

  11. Pak 38-0published at 5 overs

    Babar 21, Rizwan 15

    The Rizwan six only got 8.1m off the ground. It was a flat six. A seriously ridiculous pick up.

    Josh Hazlewood comes back well with just three singles from the final five balls of the over.

    Australia will want a breakthrough in the final over of the powerplay.

    Rizwan has just picked that up and helped it on its way.

  13. 6 runs

    Pak 35-0published at 4.1 overs

    Hello, Mohammad Rizwan! This is an absolute pick up.

    Josh Hazlewood gives him a bit of length and the ball is straying onto the pads and Rizwan flicks it over the ropes.

    Superb shot.

  14. Pak 29-0published at 4 overs

    Australia's line hasn't been good at all so far. After the boundary Pat Cummins twice strays onto the pads but Pakistan can only pick up singles.

    Aaron Finch is pointing and directing his fielders all over the show. He is very animated.

    Australia have obviously got a plan to cramp Babar up but they are just overcompensating and it is all going down the leg side.

  16. Pak 27-0published at 3.2 overs

    Australia's bowling hasn't been on the mark so far.

    Pat Cummins drops a bit short and onto the hips of Babar Azam and he flicks it past short fine leg and away to the fence.

    This is turning into a good start for Pakistan.

    Rizwan is playing about five shots off every delivery. He has tried to hit that out of Dubai.

  18. Pak 21-0published at 3 overs

    Four to end the over. Mohammad Rizwan gets down and sweeps to the fine leg boundary.

    Good over, 10 off it.

    Warner gets two hands to it. They are so difficult when they drop over your shoulder like that.

  20. dropped catch

    Rizwan dropped on 0published at 2.3 overs

    Oh, Davey Warner.

    Mohammad Rizwan looks to go downtown off Glenn Maxwell but doesn't quite middle it. Warner scurries back from mid-off, makes the ground, but drops the catch looking to take it over this shoulder.

    The ball runs away and into the boundary rope.

    Double pain.
