Eng 73-5published at 13.0 overs
Moeen Ali tilts on to the back foot like a flamingo, and works the ball for a single round the corner to get Sam Curran back on strike for the final ball of Shadab Khan's over.
Curran backs away to give himself room and thwacks it through the covers for four. England's first boundary, off the bat, for 28 balls.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialEngland are going to have to start taking some risks but four overthrows help.
Eng 70-5published at 12.2 overs
Chance of a run out for Pakistan, but the throw is wild and Shadab Khan stumbles over the stumps to add to the confusion.
The ball crosses the boundary for four overthrows, plus the single they ran.
Eng 65-5published at 12.0 overs
Sam Curran dances down the track attempting to work Iftikhar Ahmed away. It hits him on the pad, but there's a big inside edge and the umpire is not interested.
He's kept the strike. Pressure building on England here.

Malan lbw b Iftikhar Ahmed 36 (Eng 62-5)
Dawid Malan shakes his head as he walks off. He's chuntering to himself.
It was going down leg, but DRS gives it to umpire's call.

Player reviewpublished at 18:27 British Summer Time 28 September 2022
Iftikhar Ahmed strikes Dawid Malan on the pad after darting one full. The crowd roar after it's given out on field.
However, Malan has reviewed it. This will be close.

BBC Test Match Special commentatorThe spinners are tightening the screws. You feel a big shot is coming.
Eng 61-4published at 11.0 overs
Shadab Khan has a miserly 1-13 off his three overs. The latest going for three runs.
He beats the outside edge of an unusually leaden-footed Moeen Ali with his penultimate delivery.
Boiling up into a nerve-jangler this one.

Woah, woah we're halfway there. Not sure how big Bon Jovi are in Pakistan, in all honesty.
England are 58-4. They need 88 runs from 60 balls to go 3-2 up in the series with two left to play. A bit of liquid refreshment to let that sink in.
Are Pakistan favourites here? Or will England's batter hold their nerve? Let us know via Twitter #bbccricket or text 81111

Cometh the hour, cometh the man. England skipper Moeen Ali is the new batter. He keeps out his first ball before poking one into the covers to get off the mark.
Dawid Malan is still there, 34 not out from 31 balls.

Former England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialEngland have really struggled. It was a great review. It did look like it could be going down but it was hitting the top of leg stump.

Brook lbw b Shadab Khan 4
Gone! A brilliant review by Babar Azam.
The ball-tracking showed that was going on to hit leg so Harry Brook is on his way. Brook completely failed to pick that delivery from Shadab Khan.
