Moeen top-scores for England with 55 off 23 balls
Pakistan level series at 1-1 with five left to play
Good knock from Ben Duckett, too. The best sweeper since Trigger in Only Fools and Horses.
Wonder if he's had the same bat for 20 years? 17 different blades and 14 new handles, but the same bat.
Thanks, Josef.
Some beautifully crisp striking of a cricket ball by Moeen Ali. If it's in his arc at that stage of the game and he connects it's going.

I'm off for a lie down. Timothy Abraham will take you through Pakistan's chase.

Aaron: No one better than Mo in full flight, a joy to watch!
David: I have a sneaking feeling 199 will be more than enough to see England home.
Mark: England have batted superbly. There is no bounce or pace in the strip but they’re still finding a way.
England batter Ben Duckett: "I think it's about winning your match up and I feel I did that against the spinners. We thought we had to get to around 160 or 170 but Moen Ali has got us into a good position with that at the end.
"Playing spin is a strong part of my game and sweeps can hit fielder but today I found the gaps. The slower balls are gripping in. I think we have a score. We ae happy with where we are at but small boundaries and a quick outfield means we will have to bowl well."
The final 20 balls went for 57 runs. England were simply stunning with the bat.

Moeen Ali showing us what a great ball striker he is. Great timing and brute force with that lovely languid swing of his. An excellent knock from the captain and he has got England up to a difficult chase for Pakistan.
Eng 199-5
The last two balls go for six!
Moeen Ali launches a flat one over midwicket. He finishes on 55 off just 23 balls with four fours and four sixes.
England have aced it.
Moeen 49, Curran 10
Wow!
A beauty from Moeen Ali who sends one over the leg side for six.

Pakisan's players look deflated. They sense England have got enough. It's been a tough day at the office for their bowlers.
Single. Moeen's back on strike.
Dot.
Moeen 43, Curran 9
Moeen can't find the gap. A single.
Excellent running from England, another two to the leg side.
Oh wait, Hasnain overstepped. It's a free-hit no ball.
A two over the bowler to start.

Haris Rauf has bowled quickly here. A few deliveries up at the 150 kph mark - 93mph. England are finishing strongly, though.
Moeen 38, Curran 9
Good recovery from Rauf, conceding another four runs from his final five balls.
Moeen Ali will have the strike for the final over.
How do you set a field for England? 360 degree cricket.
Oh yes, Sam Curran. The England all-rounder ramps Haris Rauf for four.
