WICKETpublished at 27.5 overs
Shakeel b Rashid 29 (Pak 126-5)
Saud Shakeel will not get a chance to do so.
Adil Rashid punches the air as he bags the wicket of the Pakistan left-hander.
A curious shot from Shakeel who gets himself into a bit of a tangle playing a googly down the leg side from Rashid playing neither a sweep, nor a flick off his legs, and ends up being bowled.
Pak 122-4published at 27 overs
Agha Salman picks up another boundary by biffing Moeen Ali back over his head.
Can Pakistan get some momentum as we enter the business end of the match.
Saud Shakeel needs to do a bit more of this...
Pak 115-4published at 26 overs
A bit of a filthy slog from Agha Salman to the penultimate ball of Adil Rashid's sixth over.
It is not timed and it has more elevation than distance, but has just enough on it to dribble over the boundary.
Pak 108-4published at 25 overs
At the mid-point of Pakistan's innings at the end of that Moeen Ali over and they are some way off chasing this total down.
Here's how Muhammad Rizwan was dismissed a short while ago.

Shakeel survivespublished at 24.3 overs
Saud Shakeel you lucky boy.
The Pakistan batter does not ground his bat and is quite lucky his foot is not in mid air when Jos Buttler breaks the stumps.
Umpire reviewpublished at 24.3 overs
A brisk single from Agha Salman off Moeen Ali sees Saud Shakeel running to the striker's end.
England have a sniff off a run out, but there's a bit of fumble from at mid-off from Dawid Malan before he threw the ball to Jos Buttler.
The square leg umpire wants to take a look anyway so it is sent upstairs.

Pak 104-4published at 24 overs
Agha Salman pulls Adil Rashid's third ball high into the night sky over short mid-wicket. It hangs in the sky forever.
Gus Atkinson sets off from mid-on, but is unable to get underneath it to claim the catch.

WICKETpublished at 22.3 overs
Rizwan b Moeen 36 (Pak 100-4)
Intent to do, at least, from Muhammad Rizwan. Although he injures himself in the process.
The Pakistan wicketkeeper takes some purposeful steps down the pitch, swings his bat wildly at a delivery from Moeen Ali and is bowled.
Rizwan ends up on his backside then clutches the back of his leg. It looks like he's pulled something.
Pak 100-3published at 22 overs
Saud Shakeel and Muhammad Rizwan have taken Pakistan to three figures. Will they attempt to kick on now?

England reviewpublished at 21.4 overs
Adil Rashid is tossed the ball by Jos Buttler.
Saud Shakeel attempts to work his fourth delivery off his legs.
Rashid appeals. Buttler joins him, then reviews. Has the Pakistan batter got a tickle on this?
Pak 94-3published at 21 overs
Image source, Getty ImagesThe run-rate has climbed up to just over eight runs an over.
Some dabs and sweeps from Muhammad Rizwan and Saud Shakeel to Moeen Ali make barely a dent into that as they pick up five runs off the over.
Feels like the calm before the storm at the moment.
Pak 89-3published at 20 overs
A bit of panache from the left-handed Saud Shakeel as he goes on the front foot and chips Gus Atkinson back over his head for four.
The crowd have settled down quite a bit at Eden Gardens.
Here's how Atkinson bagged the big wicket of Babar Azam a few overs ago.
Pak 82-3published at 19 overs
A deft reverse sweep from Saud Shakeel brings him four runs off the fourth ball of Moeen Ali's third over.
Shakeel got down low and watched it right on to his nose before clinically dispatching it through third.
