Too short from Topley and all Rizwan had to do was help it on its way to the boundary.
Simple as you like.
Too short and wide again from Reece Topley, making it easy for Mohammad Rizwan to pull the ball around the corner for another boundary.
That ruined a decent over from the England left-armer.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match Special
When Babar and Rizwan get going they are so good to watch.
Just three runs off the rest of that Olly Stone over. A decent start for the debutant.

Rizwan expertly guided that ball to the boundary. With no fielder down there it's easy pickings.
That's a beautiful shot from Mohammad Rizwan. He just opens the face and calmly guides the ball fine through the gap for four.
It wasn't the worst delivery in the world, but Rizwan knew exactly what he was doing there.
There's a change of bowling for England. Time for debutant Olly Stone to bowl his first over in T20 international cricket...

I'm with you on that one, Theo.

Theo: Let’s hope for no Mankads today.
Shot.
It's too full and wide from Reece Topley and Mohammad Rizwan can drive the ball through the covers for four.
Reece Topley is finding a decent bit of swing but his line is a bit off and Mohammad Rizwan is able to flick the ball off his pads and away fine for four.
Three singles from the final three balls makes it seven from the over from Liam Dawson. I think England will take that.
Reece Topley will open the bowling at the other end.
Liam Dawson strays towards leg with his second delivery and Mohammad Rizwan gleefully sweeps the ball away for four.
The crowd absolutely love that.
Well, this is interesting. Moeen Ali has opted for spin to open, with the ball in the hands of Liam Dawson.
Here we go...
How important will the opening partnership of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan be for Pakistan? On the evidence of the last two matches: very.
The openers inspired Pakistan to a remarkable 10-wicket victory in the second T20, but fell cheaply on Friday and the middle order could not lead a recovery.

Ian: Good to see Dawid Malan is not undroppable as he has struggled yet again here in Asia.
I reckon it's just squad rotation in a seven-match series, Ian...
Pakistan: Babar Azam (c), Mohammad Rizwan (wk), Shan Masood, Iftikhar Ahmed, Khushdil Shah, Mohammad Nawaz, Asif Ali, Usman Qadir, Haris Rauf, Mohammad Hasnain, Mohammad Wasim.
England: Phil Salt (wk), Alex Hales, Will Jacks, Ben Duckett, Harry Brook, Moeen Ali (c), David Willey, Reece Topley, Olly Stone, Adil Rashid, Liam Dawson.
Harry Brook and Ben Duckett starred with the bat on Friday as England won by 63 runs to take a 2-1 series lead.
Brook smashed an unbeaten 81 from just 35 balls, with Duckett adding 70 from 42 deliveries as England set an imposing 222 for victory.
Pakistan struggled early in their reply, with the Mark Wood clocking speeds of up to 97mph in his first match back after elbow surgery.
Wood ended with 3-24 as Pakistan could only limp to 158-8, despite a spirited unbeaten half-century from Shan Masood.
