    Harry Brook averages 62 in the Pakistan Super League, with a high-score of 102 and a strike-rate of 175.

    He hasn't fired in this tournament yet but he will have faced this bowling attack.

    Target 138

    Every run feels like a little win for England, especially when Wasim fires a wide down the leg side. Two in a row, in fact.

    You can definitely keep one end with the seamers, especially with the rain around.

    To win this game Pakistan are going to have to take wickets. If England bat for 20 overs they will win this game.

    Target 138

    Mohammad Wasim has taken over from Haris Rauf, which could be good news for England. Not sure if Haris back on the field.

    Jambarrell: Stage is set for Stokes now. Many said a low scoring final might be his moment...

    Target 138

    Can someone please ask the DJ at the MCG to knock off the music? Every ball. No need. There's a World Cup final going on.

    It was at this stage of the game where we just saw Pakistan work the ball into the leg side for twos. I think we'll see a lot of that from England too.

    Target 138

    Haris Rauf has gone off the field. Shadab Khan is on after the powerplay. It's turning, obvs.

    At the Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao, wife thinks I am using the app on my phone to understand the art...hopefully she won't see that it's the cricket. Nod approvingly every so often

    Nope, I can't do this. Time for a dog walk.

    Morning.

    How are you feeling?

    As the late Graham Taylor once said, now this is a test.

    England have reached 49-3 after the powerplay. The game is fascinatingly poised.

    Here to take you through the rest of the innings is Stephan Shemilt.

    It is incredible to think that the Pakistan bowlers haven't bowled well but they've still taken three wickets.

    That eases the pressure ever so slightly.

  14. Eng 49-3published at 6 overs

    Harry Brook is the new batter - and that will make him feel better.

    It is too full from Haris Rauf and on Brook's pads, allowing the England man to drive it away for four.

    The worm shows England are 10 runs ahead of Pakistan. England are 49 for 3 after 6 overs. At the same stage Pakistan were 39 for 1.Image source, BBC Sport

    This is where Pakistan are dangerous. They've worked out length they need to bowl and they've got themselves back into the game.

    That is the wicket! That was the length.

    Pakistan are right back in this game.

    Buttler c Rizwan b Rauf 26 (Eng 45-3)

    Buttler edges it this time!

    He survived being put through the ringer the last over but a thick edge has flown through to Rizwan.

    The Pakistan fans go wild. We have a game on here.

    From our position slightly off centre behind Buttler it looked like the England captain had nicked every one of those plays and misses.

    Not good for the heart.

    That was an unbelievable over. He's got to be the unluckiest bowler in the tournament just from that over alone.

    You don't often get five plays and misses in a whole T20.

    I don't believe that.

    He's beaten him five times, been ramped for six and given away five wides.
