Spin from both ends as Mohammad Nawaz is brought into the attack for Pakistan in what feels like a forlorn cause for Babar Azam.

Where is Shan Masood for Pakistan? Could have batted at five. You need five quality front line batters in a ODI team!

Pakistan are bowling poorly. They are giving the deliveries that Rohit is looking for and he's in such good form.
Target 192
Shadab Khan continues for Pakistan after drinks, but his leg spin is easy pickings for Rohit Sharma.
The India skipper looks imperious as he capitalises on a full delivery from Shadab which he effortlessly dispatches it beyond point.
Here's how Virat Kohli was dismissed a little while ago.
Worth it for the audio of the crowd alone.

Richard Oliver: I was hoping that India v Pakistan would finally bring a more even contest. I feel this World Cup has been disappointing as a sporting spectacle. Let’s hope the games become more exciting further down the line.
Thanks, Sam.
Pakistan getting annihilated in Ahmedabad. They need something quite special to turn this around.
Target 192
Shreyas Iyer pinches the strike with a single from the last ball of the over and it's time for drinks.
India are just 81 runs away from a comprehensive victory over their fiercest rivals. To take you through to the conclusion, I'll hand you over to Timothy Abraham.

Does anyone in cricket bat more like a dad in an U13s game than Rohit Sharma?
Simon Mann
BBC Test Match Special commentator
That has gone way back! A huge blow into the stands. Will they get the ball back? Or will someone keep it as a souvenir?
Target 192
Banged in short by Haris Rauf and Rohit Sharma pulls it high over deep backward square for six!
That is enormous.
Target 192
Five singles from Shadab Khan's first over as India continue on their merry way.
It's all too easy for the batters at the moment. But it's understandable if the Pakistan bowlers are not quite as pumped up as they've ever been.

With Rohit Sharma batting the way he is at the moment, he is making a statement not just to the opposition but to his team-mates as well on how he wants them to play.
Ind 97-2
That's the fifty for Rohit Sharma!
He pushes a single down to long on to bring up a 36-ball half-century before raising his bat to an adoring Ahmedabad crowd.
That's Rohit's 53rd ODI fifty to go with 31 tons!

Rohit Sharma is in such good form, he is keen to face as much of the bowling as possible.
Target 192
Four singles on the spin to end Haris Rauf's over to keep India ticking over.
Rohit Sharma is one away from another half-century after taking a single from the last delivery.

Former India wicketkeeper on BBC Test Match Special
The ball is coming through on to the bat a lot better now under the lights.
Target 192
Four more. Too straight from Haris Rauf and Shreyas Iyer flicks the ball down to fine leg to move into double figures.
Exactly 100 needed to win and a mere 37.5 overs to get them...
Target 192
Shreyas Iyer gets himself up and running by swatting Hassan Ali to the boundary with a pull shot to start the over.
Just three singles follow but it's wickets that Pakistan need.
