  1. 6 runs

    Pak 141-5published at 17.3 overs

    Target 222

    Not out of the middle but more than enough to sail over long on for six more. Shan Masood is having fun, even if the rest of the Pakistan players and fans aren't!

  2. Not outpublished at 17.1 overs

    Pak 133-5

    Yep. Clearly off the bat, no pad involved. One of the great wasted reviews. The game situation means it can't be considered among the all-timers, though.

  3. England reviewpublished at 17.1 overs

    Pak 133-5

    England go upstairs for an lbw review with Rashid believing the ball snuck under Masood bat as he tried to reverse sweep.

    I'm pretty sure he hit it but the review won't cost England so why not take it?

    It was always going to be difficult to replicate yesterday's performance.

  5. Pak 132-5published at 17 overs

    Target 222

    Reece Topley returns with another fine over. The big left-armer restricts Pakistan to just six from it.

    The required rate is up to 29.66 an over - we're in StickCricket territory now.

    I really like the way Shan plays. He's got power when he needs it, he's measured and looks comfortable. A fine player.

  7. Pak 127-5published at 16 overs

    Target 222

    Sam Curran ends a fairly expensive over - that included a couple of wides as well as that Masood six - with a very good slower ball. Masood was nowhere near it as he tried to heave it away.

    Shan has been in good form, both in England and Pakistan in T20 cricket, and it's come in very good time as well.

  9. 6 runs

    50 for Shan Masoodpublished at 15.5 overs

    Pak 127-5

    Shan Masood brings up his half-century with a six! He lofts the ball up and over long on after going deep in his crease to enable him to get the elevation.

    That's a maiden T20I fifty for the left-hander. He's batted very well as wickets have fallen around him.

    Wood is a game changer, he's one of the best at it in T20 cricket.

  11. Pak 115-5published at 15 overs

    Target 222

    Four more to end the over as Nawaz swats the ball over the covers.

    It was third time lucky for the left-hander after swinging and missing at the two balls previous. Wood's pace just too much of him on each occasion.

  12. Pak 111-5published at 14.2 overs

    Quick from Wood but Nawaz gets into position well and pulls it away fine, one bounce for four. Not everything is going Mark Wood's way tonight but it's still been a very strong showing on his return.

    It's a case of trying to salvage the positives from this game for Pakistan.

  14. Pak 105-5published at 14 overs

    Masood 41, Nawaz 5

    This game may be all over bar the shouting but with the World Cup fast approaching, players on both sides will want to push their cases for inclusion in the starting XI.

    Five singles from a low-key Sam Curran over. Things could heat up again now, though, Mark Wood is preparing to bowl the next...

  15. 100 runs

    Pak 100-5published at 13 overs

    Target 222

    Moeen is called for a no-ball with his full toss to Mohammad Nawaz adjudged to have been above waist height.

    He gets away with the free hit, though, as he fires the ball in at the pads and Masood misses with sweep.

    Pakistan get to three figures to end the over. Just the 122 more needed.

    Terrific shot from Masood. He's going well.

  17. Pak 95-5published at 12.1 overs

    Target 222

    Thumped back down the ground for four. Top shot from Shan Masood. Pakistan may be headed for defeat but he has played a fine knock so far.

  18. Pak 91-5published at 12 overs

    Target 222

    England won't be complacent but with Pakistan five down and needing more than 16 an over, they would do well to lose it from this position.

    Rashid breaks the partnership and he has his man.

  20. wicket

    WICKETpublished at 11.4 overs

    Khushdil c Brook b Rashid 29 (Pak 90-5)

    Holed out to long off. That should be that now, surely?

    Khushdil tries to send Rashid the distance but the ball slices off the outside half of the bat and Harry Brook comes in a few paces from the rope to take the catch. Nicely judged.
