  1. Pak 61-3published at 11 overs

    Target 131

    Good confidence shown by Burl, sending down a couple of googlies alongside the stock leg-break - decent control, too.

    Seven from the over, Pakistan will be content with that for now.

    Luke Jongwe got Zimbabwe's third wicket as Iftikhar Ahmed feathered behind down the leg side. Another wicket now and things could get very, very interesting...

  3. Pak 56-3published at 10.2 overs

    Target 131

    Singles from the first two balls of Burl's over but some athletic fielding from Burl off his own bowling makes Shan Masood have to hurry.

    Ryan Burl is coming on to bowl some leg-spin. I do love a leggie.

    Pakistan will be speaking about not losing a wicket straight after drinks, consolidate a little bit and then Shadab Khan can start to play some shots.

    The worm shows Pakistan are 13 runs behind Zimbabwe. Pakistan are 54 for 3 after 10 overs. At the same stage Zimbabwe were 67 for 3.

    That is a tremendous over for Zimbabwe.

  7. Pak 54-3published at 10 overs

    Target 131

    A very tidy over of left-arm spin from Sean Williams, singles from the first five balls and a dot to finish.

    Halfway through the chase and it is game on! Pakistan need another 77 to win from 60 balls.

    Blessing Muzarabani bowled brilliantly in the powerplay for Zimbabwe and was rewarded with the crucial wicket of Mohammad Rizwan...

    I'd imagine Shadab Khan playing it safe up until 10 overs before starting to kick on.

  10. Pak 49-3published at 9 overs

    Masood 21, Shadab 2

    Masood plays and misses before finding a big pocket on the leg side that enables him to get back for two.

    It's the same shot to end the over but the fielders are alert to it this time, just a single and Masood keeps strike.

    The worm shows Pakistan are 12 runs behind Zimbabwe. Pakistan are 49 for 3 after 9 overs. At the same stage Zimbabwe were 61 for 2.
  11. Pak 46-3published at 8.3 overs

    Freebie from Raza, on Masood's pads and he isn't missing out on that. Flicked away behind square for four.

    That over is much better than the 10 runs off it looks. But that wasn't a bad ball, just a very good shot guided just past the keeper.

  13. Pak 41-3published at 8 overs

    Target 131

    Useful runs for Pakistan to end the over. Cleverly guided, just out of reach of the wicketkeeper, by Shan Masood and it runs away for four.

    Shadab Khan is the new batter. How do Pakistan play it from here?

    That is a massive wicket. Fortune favours the brave if you will. Getting a lucky wicket like that is just part of the game really.

    That is nicely taken by the wicketkeeper, he's done well there.

    Iftikhar c Chakabva b Jongwe (Pak 36-3)

    A leg-side strangle and Pakistan are in some trouble now!

    Luke Jongwe got his line slightly wrong but Iftikhar Ahmed can only feather the ball behind as he tries to tuck it into the leg side.

    Chakabva dives to his left to take a good catch. Zimbabwe's celebration suggests there are really starting to believe now.

    I have a feeling that Pakistan will just try and get through to the 10th over here and go from there.

  18. Pak 35-2published at 7.1 overs

    That'll help Pakistan. Shan Masood goes across his stumps, looking for the scoop and gets for four it.

    The ball looked to come off the edge of the bat and went off side rather than leg side but it was effective all the same.

  19. Pak 31-2published at 7 overs

    Target 131

    A first look at spin in the innings as Sikanadar Raza comes on. It's a good start form the offie, just three singles from the over.

    Pakistan are going nowhere fast, at the moment.

    Zimbabwe have been excellent with the ball and Brad Evans took the first wicket, the big one of Babar Azam.
